The psalm of David. Lord, I cried to thee, hear thou me; give thou attention to my voice, when I shall cry to thee.
Why doest thou not away my sin, and why takest thou not away my wickedness? Lo! now I shall sleep in dust, and if thou seekest me early, I shall not abide.
The psalm of David. Lord, hear thou my prayer, with ears perceive thou my beseeching; in thy truth hear thou me, in thy rightwiseness.
Lord, hear thou me swiftly; my spirit failed. Turn thou not away thy face from me; and I shall be like them that go down into the pit.
But thou, Lord, delay not thine help from me; behold thou to my defence.
Lord, hear thou the voice of my beseeching, while I pray to thee; while I raise mine hands toward thine holy temple.
Lord, please it to thee, that thou deliver me; Lord, behold thou to help me.
Be they shamed, and ashamed; that seek my life. Be they turned aback; and shame they, that will or desire evils to me.
Forsooth I am a needy man, and poor; God help thou me. Thou art mine helper and my deliverer; Lord, tarry thou not.
God, be thou not made afar from me; my God, behold thou into mine help.
