Behold thou their sitting down, and their rising up; I am their song.
I am become a derision to all my people, and their song all the day.
Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising;\par\tab Thou understandest my thought afar off.
And now I am become their song,\par\tab Yea, I am a byword unto them.
But as for me, my prayer is unto thee, O Jehovah, in an acceptable time:\par\tab O God, in the abundance of thy lovingkindness,\par\tab Answer me in the truth of thy salvation.
