15 May those who make fun of me
    be too embarrassed to speak!
16 But may those who come to you be happy and rejoice.
    May those who love being saved by you always be able to say, “Praise the Lord!”[a]

17 My Lord, I am only a poor, helpless man,
    but please pay attention to me.
You are my helper, the one who can save me.
    My God, don’t be too late.
