2 Let them confounded be and shamed, Who do my death [seek and] conspire; Confound them all, and turn them back That do my hurt [in heart] desire.
2 Let them confounded be and sham'd, Who do my death [seek and] conspire; Confound them all, and turn them back That do my hurt [in heart] desire.
3 Let shame be their reward: Let them [Fly and] be turned back by thee, Who triumphing in my distress, Do say [in scorn] Aha, to me.
4 Let all that truly seek thy face, With joy be [ever] glad in thee; Let all that thy salvation love, Say still [the Lord] God praised be.
5 But I am poor and weak, O God, Make hast [to me] and do not stay; Thou art my Saviour and help, Help, Lord, [and] make no [more] delay.
