| 18[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 18When I said, "My foot is slipping," your unfailing love, LORD, supported me. |
| 19[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 19When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy. |

| 22[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 22But the LORD has become my fortress, and my God the rock in whom I take refuge. |
| 23[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 23He will repay them for their sins and destroy them for their wickedness; the LORD our God will destroy them. |
