{\b For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. Maschil of David.}\par\par\tab Give ear to my prayer, O God;\par\tab And hide not thyself from my supplication.
{\b For the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous,\par\tab And his ears unto their supplication:\par\tab But the face of the Lord is upon them that do evil.}\par
Hide not thy face from me;\par\tab Put not thy servant away in anger:\par\tab Thou hast been my help;\par\tab Cast me not off, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.
{\b For the Chief Musician; set to Shoshannim Eduth. A Psalm of Asaph.}\par\par\tab Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel,\par\tab Thou that leadest Joseph like a flock;\par\tab Thou that sittest {\i above} the cherubim, shine forth.
{\b {\i A Psalm} of David.}\par\par\tab Unto thee, O Jehovah, will I call:\par\tab My rock, be not thou deaf unto me;\par\tab Lest, if thou be silent unto me,\par\tab I become like them that go down into the pit.
{\b A Prayer of David.}\par\par\tab Hear the right, O Jehovah, attend unto my cry;\par\tab Give ear unto my prayer, that goeth not out of feigned lips.
{\b For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments, set to the Sheminith. A Psalm of David.}\par\par\tab O Jehovah, rebuke me not in thine anger,\par\tab Neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
