1I waited patiently for Yahweh to help me,
2When I had many troubles, it was as though I was in a deep pit.
3He has given me a new song to sing,
4Yahweh is pleased with those who trust him,
5O Yahweh, my God, you have done many wonderful things!
6Various kinds of sacrifices and other offerings are not the only things that delight you.
7So I said to you, “Yahweh, here I am,
8O my God, I delight to do what you desire;
9Whenever all your people are gathered,
10And I have not kept to myself the news that you always act justly/fairly;
11Yahweh, do not stop being merciful to me.
12I have many troubles; so many that I cannot count them.
13O Yahweh, please save me!
14Humble those who are happy about my troubles, and cause them to be disgraced and ashamed.
15I hope/desire that those who make fun of me
16But I hope that all those who go to worship you will be very joyful [DOU].
17As for me, I am poor and needy [DOU];
