Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, and in sin did my mother conceive me.

Deliver me from my enemies, O my God; protect me from those who rise up against me; deliver me from those who work evil, and save me from bloodthirsty men.

You have kept count of my tossings; put my tears in your bottle. Are they not in your book?

When I am afraid, I put my trust in you. In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I shall not be afraid. What can flesh do to me?

I am mute; I do not open my mouth, for it is you who have done it.

And because God helped the Levites who were carrying the ark of the covenant of the LORD, they sacrificed seven bulls and seven rams.
