Psalm 109:21-23
New King James Version
21 But You, O God the Lord,
Deal with me for Your name’s sake;
Because Your mercy is good, deliver me.
22 For I am poor and needy,
And my heart is wounded within me.
23 I am gone (A)like a shadow when it lengthens;
I am shaken off like a locust.
Psalm 109:21-23
New American Standard Bible
21 But You, [a]God, the Lord, deal kindly with me (A)for the sake of Your name;
Because (B)Your mercy is good, rescue me;
22 For (C)I am afflicted and needy,
And [b]my heart is (D)wounded within me.
23 I am passing (E)like a shadow when it lengthens;
I am shaken off (F)like the locust.
