Psalm 69:18-20

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁸ Come very near to me,
    and make me safe.
Rescue me from my enemies.
¹⁹ God, you know that people are insulting me.
They laugh at me
    to make me feel ashamed.
You can see what all my enemies are doing.
²⁰ When they insult me,
    it makes me very upset.
I feel helpless.
I hoped that someone would be kind and help me,
    but there was nobody.
I wanted someone to comfort me,
    but I did not find anyone.
