Zaburi 40:12-15

¹²Mabaya yasiyo hesabika yamenizunguka; Maovu yangu yamenipata nami siwezi kuona chochote; nayo ni mengi kuliko nywele za kichwa changu, na moyo wangu umeniangusha.

¹³Yahwe, tafadhari uniokoe; njoo haraka unisaidie Yahwe.

¹⁴Waaibike na wafedheheke kabisa wanaufuatilia uhai wangu wauondoe. Warudishwe nyuma na wadharaulike, wale wanaofurahia kuniumiza.

¹⁵Waogopeshwe kwa sababu ya aibu yao, wale waniambiao, “Aha, aha!”
