6 - Hear, The LORD, my prayer.Listen to the voice of my petitions.

7 - In the day of my trouble I will call on you,for you will answer me.

8 - There is no one like you among the gods, Lord,nor any deeds like your deeds.

9 - All nations you have made will come and worship before you, Lord.They shall glorify your name.

16 - Turn to me, and have mercy on me!Give your strength to your servant.Save the son of your servant.
