18They apportion my garments to themselves, And for my clothing they cause a lot to fall.
19And Thou, O Jehovah, be not far off, O my strength, to help me haste.
20Deliver from the sword my soul, From the paw of a dog mine only one.
21Save me from the mouth of a lion: -- And -- from the horns of the high places Thou hast answered me!
22I declare Thy name to my brethren, In the midst of the assembly I praise Thee.
23Ye who fear Jehovah, praise ye Him, All the seed of Jacob, honour ye Him, And be afraid of Him, all ye seed of Israel.
24For He hath not despised, nor abominated, The affliction of the afflicted, Nor hath He hidden His face from him, And in his crying unto Him He heareth.
