²¹Saue me from the lyons mouth: for thou hast heard me from the hornes of the vnicornes.

^22*I will declare thy name vnto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.

²³Yee that feare the LORD, praise him; all yee the seede of Iacob glorifie him, and feare him all yee the seede of Israel.

²⁴For he hath not despised, nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him, but when he cried vnto him, he heard.

²⁵My praise shalbe of thee, in the great congregation: I will pay my vowes, before them that feare him.

²⁶The meeke shall eate and be satisfied: they shall praise the LORD that seeke him; your heart shall liue for euer.

^27*All the ends of the world shall remember, and turne vnto the LORD: and all the kinreds of the nations shall worship before thee.

²⁸For the kingdome is the LORDs: and he is the gouernour among the nations.

²⁹All they that be fat vpon earth shall eate and worship: all they that goe downe to the dust shall bow before him, and none can keepe aliue his owne soule.

³⁰A seed shall serue him; it shalbe accounted to the LORD for a generation.

³¹They shall come, and shall declare his righteousnes vnto a people that shalbe borne, that he hath done this.

¹SAVE me, O God; for the waters are come in unto my soul.

²I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing: I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.

³I am weary of my crying: my throat is dried: mine eyes fail while I wait for my God.

⁴They 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.

⁵O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my sins are not hid from thee.

⁶Let 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.

⁷Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my face.

⁸I am become a stranger unto my brethren, and an alien unto my mother’s children.

⁹For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.

¹⁰When I wept, and chastened my soul with fasting, that was to my reproach.

¹¹I made sackcloth also my garment; and I became a proverb to them.

¹²They that sit in the gate speak against me; and I was the song of the drunkards.

¹³But 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.

¹⁴Deliver 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.

¹⁵Let not the waterflood overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me up, and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.

¹⁶Hear me, O Lord; for thy lovingkindness is good: turn unto me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.

¹⁷And hide not thy face from thy servant; for I am in trouble: hear me speedily.

¹⁸Draw nigh unto my soul, and redeem it: deliver me because of mine enemies.

¹⁹Thou hast known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonour: mine adversaries are all before thee.

²⁰Reproach 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.

²¹They gave me also gall for my meat; and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.

¹¶ Saue mee, O God, for the waters are come in vnto my soule.

^2††I sinke in deepe mire, where there is no standing: I am come into deepe waters, where the flouds ouerflow me.

³I am weary of my crying, my throate is dried: mine eyes faile while I waite for my God.

⁴They that hate mee without a cause, are moe then the haires of mine head: they that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mightie: then I restored that which I tooke not away.

^5†O God, thou knowest my foolishnesse; and my sinnes are not hidde from thee.

⁶Let not them that waite on thee, O LORD God of hostes, be ashamed for my sake: let not those that seeke thee, be confounded for my sake, O God of Israel.

⁷Because for thy sake I haue borne reproch: shame hath couered my face.

⁸I am become a stranger vnto my brethren, and an aliant vnto my mothers children.

^9**For the zeale of thine house hath eaten mee vp; and the reproches of them that reproched thee, are fallen vpon me.

¹⁰When I wept, and chastened my soule with fasting, that was to my reproch.

¹¹I made sackecloth also my garment: & I became a prouerbe to them.

^12†They that sit in the gate, speake against mee; and I was the song of the drunkards.

¹³But as for mee, my prayer is vnto thee, O LORD, in an acceptable time: O God, in the multitude of thy mercie heare me, in the trueth of thy saluation.

¹⁴Deliuer me out of the mire, and let me not sinke: let me bee deliuered from them that hate me, and out of the deepe waters.

¹⁵Let not the water flood ouerflow me, neither let the deepe swallow mee vp, and let not the pit shut her mouth vpon me.

¹⁶Heare me, O LORD, for thy louing kindnesse is good: turne vnto mee according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.

¹⁷And hide not thy face from thy seruant, for I am in trouble: ^†heare me speedily.

¹⁸Draw nigh vnto my soule, and redeeme it: deliuer me because of mine enemies.

¹⁹Thou hast knowen my reproch and my shame and my dishonor: mine aduersaries are all before thee.

²⁰Reproch hath broken my heart, and I am full of heauines: and I looked for some ^†to take pitie, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none.

²¹They gaue mee also gall for my meat, ^*and in my thirst they gaue mee vineger to drinke.

³⁰I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.

³¹This also shall please the Lord better than an ox or bullock that hath horns and hoofs.

³²The humble shall see this, and be glad: and your heart shall live that seek God.

³³For the Lord heareth the poor, and despiseth not his prisoners.

³⁴Let the heaven and earth praise him, the seas, and every thing that moveth therein.

³⁵For God will save Zion, and will build the cities of Judah: that they may dwell there, and have it in possession.

³⁶The seed also of his servants shall inherit it: and they that love his name shall dwell therein.

³⁰I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnifie him with thankesgiuing.

³¹ This also shall please the LORD better then an oxe or bullocke that hath hornes and hoofes.

³²The ^‖humble shall see this, and be glad: and your heart shall liue that seeke good.

³³For the LORD heareth the poore, and despiseth not his prisoners.

³⁴Let the heauen and earth praise him, the seas, and euery thing that ^†moueth therein.

³⁵For God will saue Sion, and will build the cities of Iudah, that they may dwell there, and haue it in possession.

³⁶The seede also of his seruants shall inherit it: and they that loue his name shall dwell therein.

¹O LORD God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before thee:

²Let my prayer come before thee: incline thine ear unto my cry;

³For my soul is full of troubles: and my life draweth nigh unto the grave.

⁴I am counted with them that go down into the pit: I am as a man that hath no strength:

⁵Free among the dead, like the slain that lie in the grave, whom thou rememberest no more: and they are cut off from thy hand.

⁶Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in darkness, in the deeps.

⁷Thy wrath lieth hard upon me, and thou hast afflicted me with all thy waves. Selah.

⁸Thou hast put away mine acquaintance far from me; thou hast made me an abomination unto them: I am shut up, and I cannot come forth.

⁹Mine eye mourneth by reason of affliction: Lord, I have called daily upon thee, I have stretched out my hands unto thee.

¹⁰Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead? shall the dead arise and praise thee? Selah.

¹¹Shall thy lovingkindness be declared in the grave? or thy faithfulness in destruction?

¹²Shall thy wonders be known in the dark? and thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?

¹³But unto thee have I cried, O Lord; and in the morning shall my prayer prevent thee.

¹⁴Lord, why castest thou off my soul? why hidest thou thy face from me?

¹⁵I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up: while I suffer thy terrors I am distracted.

¹⁶Thy fierce wrath goeth over me; thy terrors have cut me off.

¹⁷They came round about me daily like water; they compassed me about together.

¹⁸Lover and friend hast thou put far from me, and mine acquaintance into darkness.

¹¶ O LORD God of my saluation, I haue cried day and night before thee.

²Let my prayer come before thee: incline thine eare vnto my cry.

³For my soule is full of troubles: and my life draweth nigh vnto the graue.

⁴I am counted with them that go downe into the pit: I am as a man that hath no strength.

^5‖Free among the dead, like the slaine that lie in the graue, whom thou remembrest no more: and they are cut off from thy hand.

⁶Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit: in darkenesse, in the deepes.

⁷Thy wrath lieth hard vpon me: and thou hast afflicted me with all thy waues. Selah.

⁸Thou hast put away mine acquaintance farre from mee: thou hast made me an abomination vnto them: I am shut vp, and I cannot come forth.

⁹Mine eye mourneth by reason of affliction, LORD, I haue called daily vpon thee: I haue stretched out my hands vnto thee.

¹⁰Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead? shal the dead arise and praise thee? Selah.

¹¹Shall thy louing kindnesse be declared in the graue? or thy faithfulnesse in destruction?

¹²Shall thy wonders be knowen in the darke? and thy righteousnesse in the land of forgetfulnesse?

¹³But vnto thee haue I cried, O LORD, and in the morning shall my prayer preuent thee.

¹⁴ LORD, why castest thou off my soule? why hidest thou thy face from me?

¹⁵I am afflicted and ready to die, from my youth vp: while I suffer thy terrours, I am distracted.

¹⁶Thy fierce wrath goeth ouer me: thy terrours haue cut me off.

^17‖They came round about mee daily like water: they compassed mee about together.

¹⁸Louer and friend hast thou put farre from me: and mine acquaintance into darkenesse.

²⁴The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had not been born.
