16 Moreover, this will become my deliverance,for no godless person would come before him.
17 Listen carefully to my words;let your ears be attentive to my explanation.
18 See now, I have prepared my case;I know that I am right.
19 Who will contend with me?If anyone can, I will be silent and die.
20 Only in two things spare me, O God,and then I will not hide from your face:
21 Remove your hand far from meand stop making me afraid with your terror.
22 Then call, and I will answer,or I will speak, and you respond to me.
