am
poor and sorrowful: let thy salvation, O God, set me up on high.

This
also shall please the L
ORD
better than an ox
or
bullock that hath horns and hoofs.
32
The humble shall see
this, and
be glad: and your heart shall live that seek God.

For the L
ORD
heareth the poor, and despiseth not his prisoners.

Let the heaven and earth praise him, the seas, and every thing that moveth therein.
35
For God will save Zion, and will build the cities of Judah: that they may dwell there, and
have it in possession.

CHAPTER 70
Make haste,
O God, to deliver me; make haste to help me, O L
ORD
.
2
Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek after my soul: let them be turned backward,
and put to confusion, that desire my hurt.
3
Let them be turned back for a reward of their shame that say, Aha, aha.
4
Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: and let such as love thy salvation
say continually, Let God be magnified.
5
But I
am
poor and needy: make haste unto me, O God: thou
art
my help and my deliverer;
O L
ORD
, make no tarrying.
CHAPTER 71
In thee, O L
ORD
, do I put my trust: let me never be put to confusion.
2
Deliver me in thy righteousness, and cause me to escape: incline thine ear unto me, and
save me.
3
Be thou my strong habitation, whereunto I may continually resort: thou hast given
commandment to save me; for thou
art
my rock and my fortress.
4
Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of the unrighteous
and cruel man.
5
For thou
art
my hope, O Lord GOD:
thou art
my trust from my youth.
6
By thee have I been holden up from the womb: thou art he that took me out of my mother’s
bowels: my praise
shall be
continually of thee.
7
I am as a wonder unto many; but thou
art
my strong refuge.
8
Let my mouth be filled
with
thy praise
and with
thy honour all the day.
