²⁷ For you deliver a humble people,
    but the haughty eyes you bring down.^(A)

² “Deliver me, O Lord,
    from lying lips,
    from a deceitful tongue.”

¹⁵ When you stretch out your hands,
    I will hide my eyes from you;
even though you make many prayers,
    I will not listen;
    your hands are full of blood.^(A)
