Psalm 69:29-33
New English Translation

29 I am oppressed and suffering.
O God, deliver and protect me.[a]
30 I will sing praises to God’s name.[b]
I will magnify him as I give him thanks.[c]
31 That will please the Lord more than an ox or a bull
with horns and hooves.
32 The oppressed look on—let them rejoice.
You who seek God,[d] may you be encouraged.[e]
33 For the Lord listens to the needy;
he does not despise his captive people.[f]
