Cause me escape, incline thine ear unto me, and me save. 3 Be thou my dwelling-rock, to which I ever may resort : Thou gav'st commandment me to save, for thou 'rt my rock and fort. 4 Free me, my God, from wicked hands, hands cruel and unjust : 5 For thou, O Lord God, art my hope, 6 Thou from the womb didst hold me up; 7 To many I a wonder am; but thou 'rt my refuge strong. mf 8 Fill'd let my mouth be with thy praise and honour all day long. mp 9 0 do not cast me off, when as old age doth overtake me; And when my strength decayed is, then do not thou forsake me. 10 For those that are mine enemies against me speak with hate; And they together counsel take that for my soul lay wait.

It from the river shall reach forth unto earth's utmost end. 9 They in the wilderness that dwell bow down before him must; And they that are his enemies shall lick the very dust. 10 The kings of Tarshish, and the isles, to him shall presents bring; And unto him shall offer gifts Sheba's and Seba's king. 4 The people's poor ones he shall judge, II Yea, all the mighty kings on earth the needy's children save; And those shall he in pieces break who them oppressed have. before him down shall fall; And all the nations of the world do service to him shall. 5 They shall thee fear, while sun and mf 12 For he the needy shall preserve, moon do last, through ages all. 6 Like rain on mown grass he shall drop, or show'rs on earth that fall. 7 The just shall flourish in his days, and prosper in his reign: He shall, while doth the moon endure, abundant peace maintain. 8 His large and great dominion shall from sea to sea extend: when he to him doth call; The poor also, and him that hath no help of man at all. 13 The poor man and the indigent in mercy he shall spare; He shall preserve alive the souls of those that needy are. 14 Both from deceit and violence their soul he shall set free; And in his sight right precious and dear their blood shall be. |
