Return, Jehovah, free my soul; save me for thy loving-kindness' sake.

Mine eye wasteth away through grief; it hath grown old because of all mine oppressors.

Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for Jehovah hath heard the voice of my weeping.

10 L et all mine enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return and be ashamed suddenly.

All mine enemies shall be ashamed and tremble exceedingly; they will turn, they will be ashamed suddenly.
