16 In you, O Lord, is my hope: you will give me an answer, O Lord, my God.
17 I said, Let them not be glad over me; when my foot is moved, let them not be lifted up with pride against me.
18 My feet are near to falling, and my sorrow is ever before me.
19 I will make clear my wrongdoing, with sorrow in my heart for my sin.
20 But they are strong who have hate for me without cause: those who are against me falsely are increased in numbers.
21 They give me back evil for good; they are my haters because I go after the thing which is right.
22 Do not give me up, O Lord; O my God, be near to me.
