Psalm 86:14-17

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

¹⁴ O God, the insolent rise up against me;
    a band of ruffians seeks my life,
    and they do not set you before them.
¹⁵ But you, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious,
    slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness.
¹⁶ Turn to me and be gracious to me;
    give your strength to your servant;
    save the child of your serving-maid.
¹⁷ Show me a sign of your favour,
    so that those who hate me may see it and be put to shame,
    because you, Lord, have helped me and comforted me.
