{\b For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.}\par\par\tab In thee, O Jehovah, do I take refuge;\par\tab Let me never be put to shame:\par\tab Deliver me in thy righteousness.
There hath no temptation taken you but such as man can bear: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation make also the way of escape, that ye may be able to endure it.\par
O Lord, according to all thy righteousness, let thine anger and thy wrath, I pray thee, be turned away from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy mountain; because for our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and thy people are become a reproach to all that are round about us.
{\b A Psalm of David.}\par\par\tab Hear my prayer, O Jehovah; give ear to my supplications:\par\tab In thy faithfulness answer me, {\i and} in thy righteousness.
