Psalms 37:15-18

¹⁵For I hoped in you, O Lord: you will hear, O Lord my God.

¹⁶For I said, Lest my enemies rejoice against me: for when my feet were moved, they spoke boastingly against me.

¹⁷For I am ready for plagues, and my grief is continually before me.

¹⁸For I will declare my iniquity, and be distressed for my sin.
