Psalm 31:8-10

Living Bible

⁸ You have not handed me over to my enemy but have given me open ground in which to maneuver.

^9-10 O Lord, have mercy on me in my anguish. My eyes are red from weeping; my health is broken from sorrow. I am pining away with grief; my years are shortened, drained away because of sadness. My sins have sapped my strength; I stoop with sorrow and with shame.^[a]
