12Be not far from me, O God. Hurry, O my God, to help me. | 12O God, do not be far from me; O my God, hasten to my help! |
13May the accusers of my soul be ashamed and consumed; may those who seek my harm be covered with scorn and disgrace. | 13Let those who are adversaries of my soul be ashamed and consumed; Let them be covered with reproach and dishonor, who seek to injure me. |
