 | 069:001
Save me, O God; for the waters are come
in unto my soul. |
| 069:002 I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing: I am come into deep
waters, where the floods overflow me. |
| 069:003 I am weary of my crying: my throat is dried: mine eyes fail while I
wait for my God. |
| 069:004 They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of mine
head: they that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty:
then I restored that which I took not away. |
| 069:005 O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my sins are not hid from
thee. |
| 069:006 Let not them that wait on thee, O Lord GOD of hosts, be ashamed for
my sake: let not those that seek thee be confounded for my sake, O God of
Israel. |
| 069:007 Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my
face. |
| 069:008 I am become a stranger unto my brethren, and an alien unto my
mother's children. |
| 069:009 For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of
them that reproached thee are fallen upon me. |
| 069:010 When I wept, and chastened my soul with fasting, that was to my
reproach. |
| 069:011 I made sackcloth also my garment; and I became a proverb to them. |
| 069:012 They that sit in the gate speak against me; and I was the song of the
drunkards. |
| 069:013 But as for me, my prayer is unto thee, O LORD, in an acceptable time:
O God, in the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy salvation. |
| 069:014 Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink: let me be delivered
from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters. |
| 069:015 Let not the waterflood overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me
up, and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me. |
| 069:016 Hear me, O LORD; for thy lovingkindness is good: turn unto me
according to the multitude of thy tender mercies. |
| 069:017 And hide not thy face from thy servant; for I am in trouble: hear me
speedily. |
| 069:018 Draw nigh unto my soul, and redeem it: deliver me because of mine
enemies. |
| 069:019 Thou hast known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonour: mine
adversaries are all before thee. |
| 069:020 Reproach hath broken my heart; and I am full of heaviness: and I
looked for some to take pity, but there was none; and for comforters, but I
found none. |
| 069:021 They gave me also gall for my meat; and in my thirst they gave me
vinegar to drink. |
| 069:022 Let their table become a snare before them: and that which should
have been for their welfare, let it become a trap. |
| 069:023 Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not; and make their loins
continually to shake. |
| 069:024 Pour out thine indignation upon them, and let thy wrathful anger take
hold of them. |
| 069:025 Let their habitation be desolate; and let none dwell in their tents. |
| 069:026 For they persecute him whom thou hast smitten; and they talk to the
grief of those whom thou hast wounded. |
| 069:027 Add iniquity unto their iniquity: and let them not come into thy
righteousness. |
| 069:028 Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written
with the righteous. |
| 069:029 But I am poor and sorrowful: let thy salvation, O God, set me up on
high. |
| 069:030 I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with
thanksgiving. |
| 069:031 This also shall please the LORD better than an ox or bullock that
hath horns and hoofs. |
| 069:032 The humble shall see this, and be glad: and your heart shall live
that seek God. |
| 069:033 For the LORD heareth the poor, and despiseth not his prisoners. |
| 069:034 Let the heaven and earth praise him, the seas, and every thing that moveth therein. |
| 069:035 For God will save Zion, and will build the cities of Judah: that they
may dwell there, and have it in possession. |
| 069:036 The seed also of his servants shall inherit it: and they that love
his name shall dwell therein. |

MAKE HASTE, O GOD, TO DELIVER ME; MAKE
HASTE TO HELP ME, O LORD. |
| 070:002 Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek after my soul: let them
be turned backward, and put to confusion, that desire my hurt. |
| 070:003 Let them be turned back for a reward of their shame that say, Aha,
aha. |
| 070:004 Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: and let
such as love thy salvation say continually, Let God be magnified. |
| 070:005 But I am poor and needy: make haste unto me, O God: thou art my help
and my deliverer; O LORD, make no tarrying. |

| 071:001 In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust: let
me never be put to confusion. |
| 071:002 Deliver me in thy righteousness, and cause me to escape: incline
thine ear unto me, and save me. |
| 071:003 Be thou my strong habitation, whereunto I may continually resort:
thou hast given commandment to save me; for thou art my rock and my fortress. |
| 071:004 Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand
of the unrighteous and cruel man. |
| 071:005 For thou art my hope, O Lord GOD: thou art my trust from my youth. |
| 071:006 By thee have I been holden up from the womb: thou art he that took me
out of my mother's bowels: my praise shall be continually of thee. |
| 071:007 I am as a wonder unto many; but thou art my strong refuge. |
| 071:008 Let my mouth be filled with thy praise and with thy honour all the
day. |
| 071:009 Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my
strength faileth. |
| 071:010 For mine enemies speak against me; and they that lay wait for my soul
take counsel together, |
| 071:011 Saying, God hath forsaken him: persecute and take him; for there is
none to deliver him. |
| 071:012 O God, be not far from me: O my God, make haste for my help. |
| 071:013 Let them be confounded and consumed that are adversaries to my soul;
let them be covered with reproach and dishonour that seek my hurt. |
| 071:014 But I will hope continually, and will yet praise thee more and more. |
| 071:015 My mouth shall shew forth thy righteousness and thy salvation all the
day; for I know not the numbers thereof. |
| 071:016 I will go in the strength of the Lord GOD: I will make mention of thy
righteousness, even of thine only. |
| 071:017 O God, thou hast taught me from my youth: and hitherto have I
declared thy wondrous works. |
| 071:018 Now also when I am old and greyheaded, O God, forsake me not; until I
have shewed thy strength unto this generation, and thy power to every one that
is to come. |
| 071:019 Thy righteousness also, O God, is very high, who hast done great
things: O God, who is like unto thee! |
| 071:020 Thou, which hast shewed me great and sore troubles, shalt quicken me
again, and shalt bring me up again from the depths of the earth. |
| 071:021 Thou shalt increase my greatness, and comfort me on every side. |
| 071:022 I will also praise thee with the psaltery, even thy truth, O my God:
unto thee will I sing with the harp, O thou Holy One of Israel. |
| 071:023 My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing unto thee; and my soul,
which thou hast redeemed. |
| 071:024 My tongue also shall talk of thy righteousness all the day long: for
they are confounded, for they are brought unto shame, that seek my hurt. |

Give the king thy judgments, O God, and
thy righteousness unto the king's son. |
| 072:002 He shall judge thy people with righteousness, and thy poor with
judgment. |
| 072:003 The mountains shall bring peace to the people, and the little hills,
by righteousness. |
| 072:004 He shall judge the poor of the people, he shall save the children of
the needy, and shall break in pieces the oppressor. |
| 072:005 They shall fear thee as long as the sun and moon endure, throughout
all generations. |
| 072:006 He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass: as showers that
water the earth. |
| 072:007 In his days shall the righteous flourish; and abundance of peace so
long as the moon endureth. |
| 072:008 He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, and from the river unto
the ends of the earth. |
| 072:009 They that dwell in the wilderness shall bow before him; and his
enemies shall lick the dust. |
| 072:010 The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall bring presents: the
kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts. |
| 072:011 Yea, all kings shall fall down before him: all nations shall serve
him. |
| 072:012 For he shall deliver the needy when he crieth; the poor also, and him
that hath no helper. |
| 072:013 He shall spare the poor and needy, and shall save the souls of the
needy. |
| 072:014 He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence: and precious
shall their blood be in his sight. |
| 072:015 And he shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Sheba:
prayer also shall be made for him continually; and daily shall he be praised. |
| 072:016 There shall be an handful of corn in the earth upon the top of the
mountains; the fruit thereof shall shake like Lebanon: and they of the city
shall flourish like grass of the earth. |
| 072:017 His name shall endure for ever: his name shall be continued as long
as the sun: and men shall be blessed in him: all nations shall call him blessed. |
| 072:018 Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, who only doeth wondrous
things. |
| 072:019 And blessed be his glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth be
filled with his glory; Amen, and Amen. |

Truly God is good to Israel, even to such
as are of a clean heart. |
| 073:002 But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well nigh
slipped. |
| 073:003 For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the
wicked. |
| 073:004 For there are no bands in their death: but their strength is firm. |
| 073:005 They are not in trouble as other men; neither are they plagued like
other men. |
| 073:006 Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth
them as a garment. |
| 073:007 Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could
wish. |
| 073:008 They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression: they
speak loftily. |
| 073:009 They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walketh
through the earth. |
| 073:010 Therefore his people return hither: and waters of a full cup are
wrung out to them. |
| 073:011 And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the most
High? |
| 073:012 Behold, these are the ungodly, who prosper in the world; they
increase in riches. |
| 073:013 Verily I have cleansed my heart in vain, and washed my hands in innocency. |
| 073:014 For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every
morning. |
| 073:015 If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the
generation of thy children. |
| 073:016 When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me; |
| 073:017 Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end. |
| 073:018 Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst them
down into destruction. |
| 073:019 How are they brought into desolation, as in a moment! they are
utterly consumed with terrors. |
| 073:020 As a dream when one awaketh; so, O Lord, when thou awakest, thou
shalt despise their image. |
| 073:021 Thus my heart was grieved, and I was pricked in my reins. |
| 073:022 So foolish was I, and ignorant: I was as a beast before thee. |
| 073:023 Nevertheless I am continually with thee: thou hast holden me by my
right hand. |
| 073:024 Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to
glory. |
| 073:025 Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I
desire beside thee. |
| 073:026 My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart,
and my portion for ever. |
| 073:027 For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: thou hast
destroyed all them that go a whoring from thee. |
| 073:028 But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the
Lord GOD, that I may declare all thy works. |

O God, why hast thou cast us off for
ever? why doth thine anger smoke against the sheep of thy pasture? |
| 074:002 Remember thy congregation, which thou hast purchased of old; the rod
of thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed; this mount Zion, wherein thou
hast dwelt. |
| 074:003 Lift up thy feet unto the perpetual desolations; even all that the
enemy hath done wickedly in the sanctuary. |
| 074:004 Thine enemies roar in the midst of thy congregations; they set up
their ensigns for signs. |
| 074:005 A man was famous according as he had lifted up axes upon the thick
trees. |
| 074:006 But now they break down the carved work thereof at once with axes and
hammers. |
| 074:007 They have cast fire into thy sanctuary, they have defiled by casting
down the dwelling place of thy name to the ground. |
| 074:008 They said in their hearts, Let us destroy them together: they have
burned up all the synagogues of God in the land. |
| 074:009 We see not our signs: there is no more any prophet: neither is there
among us any that knoweth how long. |
| 074:010 O God, how long shall the adversary reproach? shall the enemy
blaspheme thy name for ever? |
| 074:011 Why withdrawest thou thy hand, even thy right hand? pluck it out of
thy bosom. |
| 074:012 For God is my King of old, working salvation in the midst of the
earth. |
| 074:013 Thou didst divide the sea by thy strength: thou brakest the heads of
the dragons in the waters. |
| 074:014 Thou brakest the heads of leviathan in pieces, and gavest him to be
meat to the people inhabiting the wilderness. |
| 074:015 Thou didst cleave the fountain and the flood: thou driedst up mighty
rivers. |
| 074:016 The day is thine, the night also is thine: thou hast prepared the
light and the sun. |
| 074:017 Thou hast set all the borders of the earth: thou hast made summer and
winter. |
| 074:018 Remember this, that the enemy hath reproached, O LORD, and that the
foolish people have blasphemed thy name. |
| 074:019 O deliver not the soul of thy turtledove unto the multitude of the
wicked: forget not the congregation of thy poor for ever. |
| 074:020 Have respect unto the covenant: for the dark places of the earth are
full of the habitations of cruelty. |
| 074:021 O let not the oppressed return ashamed: let the poor and needy praise
thy name. |
| 074:022 Arise, O God, plead thine own cause: remember how the foolish man reproacheth thee daily. |
| 074:023 Forget not the voice of thine enemies: the tumult of those that rise
up against thee increaseth continually. |

Unto thee, O God, do we give thanks, unto
thee do we give thanks: for that thy name is near thy wondrous works declare. |
| 075:002 When I shall receive the congregation I will judge uprightly. |
| 075:003 The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up
the pillars of it. Selah. |
| 075:004 I said unto the fools, Deal not foolishly: and to the wicked, Lift
not up the horn: |
| 075:005 Lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a stiff neck. |
| 075:006 For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor
from the south. |
| 075:007 But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another. |
| 075:008 For in the hand of the LORD there is a cup, and the wine is red; it
is full of mixture; and he poureth out of the same: but the dregs thereof, all
the wicked of the earth shall wring them out, and drink them. |
| 075:009 But I will declare for ever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob. |
| 075:010 All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; but the horns of the
righteous shall be exalted. |

In Judah is God known: his name is great
in Israel. |
| 076:002 In Salem also is his tabernacle, and his dwelling place in Zion. |
| 076:003 There brake he the arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and
the battle. Selah. |
| 076:004 Thou art more glorious and excellent than the mountains of prey. |
| 076:005 The stouthearted are spoiled, they have slept their sleep: and none
of the men of might have found their hands. |
| 076:006 At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, both the chariot and horse are cast
into a dead sleep. |
| 076:007 Thou, even thou, art to be feared: and who may stand in thy sight
when once thou art angry? |
| 076:008 Thou didst cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared,
and was still, |
| 076:009 When God arose to judgment, to save all the meek of the earth. Selah. |
| 076:010 Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: the remainder of wrath
shalt thou restrain. |
| 076:011 Vow, and pay unto the LORD your God: let all that be round about him
bring presents unto him that ought to be feared. |
| 076:012 He shall cut off the spirit of princes: he is terrible to the kings
of the earth. |

| 077:001 I cried unto God with my voice, even unto
God with my voice; and he gave ear unto me. |
| 077:002 In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord: my sore ran in the night,
and ceased not: my soul refused to be comforted. |
| 077:003 I remembered God, and was troubled: I complained, and my spirit was
overwhelmed. Selah. |
| 077:004 Thou holdest mine eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak. |
| 077:005 I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times. |
| 077:006 I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own
heart: and my spirit made diligent search. |
| 077:007 Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no more? |
| 077:008 Is his mercy clean gone for ever? doth his promise fail for evermore? |
| 077:009 Hath God forgotten to be gracious? hath he in anger shut up his
tender mercies? Selah. |
| 077:010 And I said, This is my infirmity: but I will remember the years of
the right hand of the most High. |
| 077:011 I will remember the works of the LORD: surely I will remember thy
wonders of old. |
| 077:012 I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings. |
| 077:013 Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our
God? |
| 077:014 Thou art the God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy strength
among the people. |
| 077:015 Thou hast with thine arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and
Joseph. Selah. |
| 077:016 The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they were afraid:
the depths also were troubled. |
| 077:017 The clouds poured out water: the skies sent out a sound: thine arrows
also went abroad. |
| 077:018 The voice of thy thunder was in the heaven: the lightnings lightened
the world: the earth trembled and shook. |
| 077:019 Thy way is in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy
footsteps are not known. |
| 077:020 Thou leddest thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron. |
Return to Top
| 078:001
Give ear, O my people, to my law: incline
your ears to the words of my mouth. |
| 078:002 I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter dark sayings of old: |
| 078:003 Which we have heard and known, and our fathers have told us. |
| 078:004 We will not hide them from their children, shewing to the generation
to come the praises of the LORD, and his strength, and his wonderful works that
he hath done. |
| 078:005 For he established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a law in
Israel, which he commanded our fathers, that they should make them known to
their children: |
| 078:006 That the generation to come might know them, even the children which
should be born; who should arise and declare them to their children: |
| 078:007 That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of
God, but keep his commandments: |
| 078:008 And might not be as their fathers, a stubborn and rebellious
generation; a generation that set not their heart aright, and whose spirit was
not stedfast with God. |
| 078:009 The children of Ephraim, being armed, and carrying bows, turned back
in the day of battle. |
| 078:010 They kept not the covenant of God, and refused to walk in his law; |
| 078:011 And forgat his works, and his wonders that he had shewed them. |
| 078:012 Marvellous things did he in the sight of their fathers, in the land
of Egypt, in the field of Zoan. |
| 078:013 He divided the sea, and caused them to pass through; and he made the
waters to stand as an heap. |
| 078:014 In the daytime also he led them with a cloud, and all the night with
a light of fire. |
| 078:015 He clave the rocks in the wilderness, and gave them drink as out of
the great depths. |
| 078:016 He brought streams also out of the rock, and caused waters to run
down like rivers. |
| 078:017 And they sinned yet more against him by provoking the most High in
the wilderness. |
| 078:018 And they tempted God in their heart by asking meat for their lust. |
| 078:019 Yea, they spake against God; they said, Can God furnish a table in
the wilderness? |
| 078:020 Behold, he smote the rock, that the waters gushed out, and the
streams overflowed; can he give bread also? can he provide flesh for his people? |
| 078:021 Therefore the LORD heard this, and was wroth: so a fire was kindled
against Jacob, and anger also came up against Israel; |
| 078:022 Because they believed not in God, and trusted not in his salvation: |
| 078:023 Though he had commanded the clouds from above, and opened the doors
of heaven, |
| 078:024 And had rained down manna upon them to eat, and had given them of the
corn of heaven. |
| 078:025 Man did eat angels' food: he sent them meat to the full. |
| 078:026 He caused an east wind to blow in the heaven: and by his power he
brought in the south wind. |
| 078:027 He rained flesh also upon them as dust, and feathered fowls like as
the sand of the sea: |
| 078:028 And he let it fall in the midst of their camp, round about their
habitations. |
| 078:029 So they did eat, and were well filled: for he gave them their own
desire; |
| 078:030 They were not estranged from their lust. But while their meat was yet
in their mouths, |
| 078:031 The wrath of God came upon them, and slew the fattest of them, and
smote down the chosen men of Israel. |
| 078:032 For all this they sinned still, and believed not for his wondrous
works. |
| 078:033 Therefore their days did he consume in vanity, and their years in
trouble. |
| 078:034 When he slew them, then they sought him: and they returned and
enquired early after God. |
| 078:035 And they remembered that God was their rock, and the high God their
redeemer. |
| 078:036 Nevertheless they did flatter him with their mouth, and they lied
unto him with their tongues. |
| 078:037 For their heart was not right with him, neither were they stedfast in
his covenant. |
| 078:038 But he, being full of compassion, forgave their iniquity, and
destroyed them not: yea, many a time turned he his anger away, and did not stir
up all his wrath. |
| 078:039 For he remembered that they were but flesh; a wind that passeth away,
and cometh not again. |
| 078:040 How oft did they provoke him in the wilderness, and grieve him in the
desert! |
| 078:041 Yea, they turned back and tempted God, and limited the Holy One of
Israel. |
| 078:042 They remembered not his hand, nor the day when he delivered them from
the enemy. |
| 078:043 How he had wrought his signs in Egypt, and his wonders in the field
of Zoan. |
| 078:044 And had turned their rivers into blood; and their floods, that they
could not drink. |
| 078:045 He sent divers sorts of flies among them, which devoured them; and
frogs, which destroyed them. |
| 078:046 He gave also their increase unto the caterpiller, and their labour
unto the locust. |
| 078:047 He destroyed their vines with hail, and their sycomore trees with
frost. |
| 078:048 He gave up their cattle also to the hail, and their flocks to hot
thunderbolts. |
| 078:049 He cast upon them the fierceness of his anger, wrath, and
indignation, and trouble, by sending evil angels among them. |
| 078:050 He made a way to his anger; he spared not their soul from death, but
gave their life over to the pestilence; |
| 078:051 And smote all the firstborn in Egypt; the chief of their strength in
the tabernacles of Ham: |
| 078:052 But made his own people to go forth like sheep, and guided them in
the wilderness like a flock. |
| 078:053 And he led them on safely, so that they feared not: but the sea
overwhelmed their enemies. |
| 078:054 And he brought them to the border of his sanctuary, even to this
mountain, which his right hand had purchased. |
| 078:055 He cast out the heathen also before them, and divided them an
inheritance by line, and made the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tents. |
| 078:056 Yet they tempted and provoked the most high God, and kept not his
testimonies: |
| 078:057 But turned back, and dealt unfaithfully like their fathers: they were
turned aside like a deceitful bow. |
| 078:058 For they provoked him to anger with their high places, and moved him
to jealousy with their graven images. |
| 078:059 When God heard this, he was wroth, and greatly abhorred Israel: |
| 078:060 So that he forsook the tabernacle of Shiloh, the tent which he placed
among men; |
| 078:061 And delivered his strength into captivity, and his glory into the
enemy's hand. |
| 078:062 He gave his people over also unto the sword; and was wroth with his
inheritance. |
| 078:063 The fire consumed their young men; and their maidens were not given
to marriage. |
| 078:064 Their priests fell by the sword; and their widows made no
lamentation. |
| 078:065 Then the LORD awaked as one out of sleep, and like a mighty man that shouteth by reason of wine. |
| 078:066 And he smote his enemies in the hinder parts: he put them to a
perpetual reproach. |
| 078:067 Moreover he refused the tabernacle of Joseph, and chose not the tribe
of Ephraim: |
| 078:068 But chose the tribe of Judah, the mount Zion which he loved. |
| 078:069 And he built his sanctuary like high palaces, like the earth which he
hath established for ever. |
| 078:070 He chose David also his servant, and took him from the sheepfolds: |
| 078:071 From following the ewes great with young he brought him to feed Jacob
his people, and Israel his inheritance. |
| 078:072 So he fed them according to the integrity of his heart; and guided
them by the skilfulness of his hands. |

| 079:001 O god, the heathen are come into thine
inheritance; thy holy temple have they defiled; they have laid Jerusalem on
heaps. |
| 079:002 The dead bodies of thy servants have they given to be meat unto the
fowls of the heaven, the flesh of thy saints unto the beasts of the earth. |
| 079:003 Their blood have they shed like water round about Jerusalem; and
there was none to bury them. |
| 079:004 We are become a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and derision to
them that are round about us. |
| 079:005 How long, LORD? wilt thou be angry for ever? shall thy jealousy burn
like fire? |
| 079:006 Pour out thy wrath upon the heathen that have not known thee, and
upon the kingdoms that have not called upon thy name. |
| 079:007 For they have devoured Jacob, and laid waste his dwelling place. |
| 079:008 O remember not against us former iniquities: let thy tender mercies
speedily prevent us: for we are brought very low. |
| 079:009 Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of thy name: and
deliver us, and purge away our sins, for thy name's sake. |
| 079:010 Wherefore should the heathen say, Where is their God? let him be
known among the heathen in our sight by the revenging of the blood of thy
servants which is shed. |
| 079:011 Let the sighing of the prisoner come before thee; according to the
greatness of thy power preserve thou those that are appointed to die; |
| 079:012 And render unto our neighbours sevenfold into their bosom their
reproach, wherewith they have reproached thee, O Lord. |
| 079:013 So we thy people and sheep of thy pasture will give thee thanks for
ever: we will shew forth thy praise to all generations. |
