12 aA glorious throne on high from the beginning
Is the place of our sanctuary.
13 O Yahweh, the ahope of Israel,
All who bforsake You will be put to shame.
Those who turn away on earth will be cwritten down
Because they have forsaken the fountain of living water, even Yahweh.
14 aHeal me, O Yahweh, and I will be healed;
bSave me and I will be saved,
For You are my cpraise.
15 Behold, they keep asaying to me,
“Where is the word of Yahweh?
Let it come now!”
16 But as for me, I have not hurried away from being a shepherd after You,
Nor have I longed for the sickening day;
aYou Yourself know that the utterance of my lips
Was in Your presence.
17 Do not be a aterror to me;
You are my brefuge in the day of calamity.
18 Let those who pursue me be aput to shame, but as for me, blet me not be put to shame;
Let them be dismayed, but let me not be dismayed.
cBring on them a day of calamity,
And crush them with twofold crushing!
