⁵ But as for me, I am poor and needy;
    please hurry to my aid, O God.
You are my helper and my savior;
    O Lord, do not delay.

¹⁷ As for me, since I am poor and needy,
    let the Lord keep me in his thoughts.
You are my helper and my savior.
    O my God, do not delay.

¹ O Lord, I am calling to you. Please hurry!
    Listen when I cry to you for help!

²⁹ I am suffering and in pain.
    Rescue me, O God, by your saving power.

³⁷ “For in just a little while,
    the Coming One will come and not delay.

¹ O Lord, how long will you forget me? Forever?
    How long will you look the other way?
² How long must I struggle with anguish in my soul,
    with sorrow in my heart every day?
    How long will my enemy have the upper hand?

²² For I am poor and needy,
    and my heart is full of pain.
