I (A)hate[a] those who pay (B)regard to worthless (C)idols,
    but I trust in the Lord.
I will rejoice and be glad in your steadfast love,
    because you have seen my affliction;
    you have (D)known the distress of my soul,
and you have not (E)delivered me into the hand of the enemy;
    you have set my feet in (F)a broad place.

Be gracious to me, O Lord, for I am (G)in distress;
    (H)my eye is wasted from grief;
    my soul and my body also.
10 For my life is spent with sorrow,
    and my years with sighing;
my strength fails because of my iniquity,
    and (I)my bones waste away.
