Psalm 109:22 in context

  1. 20This is the reward of my adversaries from Yahweh,
    of those who speak evil against my soul.
  2. 21But deal with me, Yahweh the Lord, for your name’s sake,
    because your loving kindness is good, deliver me;
  3. 22for I am poor and needy.
    My heart is wounded within me.

    I am shaken off like a locust.

    My body is thin and lacks fat.
