Sirach 51:10
I called out to the Lord, the father of my master: “Don’t desert me in the time of my distress, when I am helpless before the arrogant.

I prayed, O Lord, you are my father; do not abandon me to my troubles when I am helpless against arrogant enemies.
I called out: Lord, you are my Father, my champion, my savior! Do not abandon me in time of trouble, in the midst of storms and dangers.
I cried out: “Lord, you are my Father, and the champion of my salvation; do not abandon me in my days of ordeal, for I am helpless when confronted by the arrogant. I will praise your name continually and sing hymns of thanksgiving.”
I cried out, ‘Lord, you are my Father; do not forsake me in the days of trouble, when there is no help against the proud.
