22. For I am poor and needy, and my heart is wounded within me.
23. I am gone like the shadow when it declineth: I am tossed up and down as the locust.
24. My knees are weak through fasting; and my flesh faileth of fatness.
25. I am become also a reproach unto them: when they see me, they shake their head.
26. Help me, O LORD my God; O save me according to thy mercy:
27. That they may know that this is thy hand; that thou, LORD, hast done it.
