13 yBe gracious to me, O Lord!
See my affliction from those who hate me,
O you who lift me up from zthe gates of death,
18 fthey loathed any kind of food,
10 I said, xIn the middle1 of my days
I must depart;
I am consigned to the gates of Sheol
for the rest of my years.
18 And I tell you, iyou are Peter, and jon this rock1 I will build my church, and kthe gates of lhell2 shall not prevail against it.
