6 And now, ev'n at this present time,mine head shall lifted beAbove all those that are my foes,and round encompass me:Therefore unto his tabernacleI'll sacrifices bringOf joyfulness; I'll sing, yea, Ito God will praises sing.
7 O Lord, give ear unto my voice,when I do cry to thee;Upon me also mercy have,and do thou answer me.
8 When thou didst say, Seek ye my face,then unto thee replyThus did my heart, Above all thingsthy face, Lord, seek will I.
9 Far from me hide not thou thy face;put not away from theeThy servant in thy wrath: thou hastan helper been to me.O God of my salvation,leave me not, nor forsake:
10 Though me my parents both should leave,the Lord will me up take.
11 O Lord, instruct me in thy way,to me a leader beIn a plain path, because of thosethat hatred bear to me.
12 Give me not to mine en'mies' will;for witnesses that lieAgainst me risen are, and suchas breathe out cruelty.
