7 Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me and answer me.
8 My heart has spoken unto me from thee, Seek my face. Thy face, O Lord, will I seek.
9 Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy slave away in anger: thou hast been my help; do not leave me or forsake me, O God of my saving health.
10 For my father and my mother have left me, and the Lord has taken me up.
11 Teach me thy way, O Lord, and lead me in a right path because of my enemies.
12 Deliver me not over unto the will of my enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me and such as breathe out cruelty.
13 I had fainted unless I had believed to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.
