20 May that be the Lord's way of paying back those who bring charges against me. May it happen to those who say evil things about me.
21 But Lord and King, be true to your name. Treat me well. Because your love is so good, save me.
22 I am poor and needy. My heart is wounded deep down inside me.
23 I fade away like an evening shadow. I'm like a locust that someone brushes off.
24 My knees are weak because I've gone without food. My body is very thin.
25 Those who bring charges against me laugh at me. When they see me, they shake their heads at me.
26 Lord my God, help me. Save me because you love me.
