14 O God, arrogant men have risen up against me,
even a gang of ruthless men seek my life,
but they do not set you before them.[a]
15 But you, O Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God,

16 Turn to me and be gracious to me.
Give your strength to your servant,
and grant victory to the son[c] of your maidservant.
