13 For thy mercy to me In greatness doth excel; Thou hast delivered my soul Both from the Grave and Hell.
14 The proud against me rise, Terrible men are met In troops, that seek my life; but thee Before them have not set.
15 But full of pity, Lord, And gracious thou art found; Thou art long-suffering, and in truth And mercy dost abound.
16 O turn thee unto me, And mercy on me have; Strengthen thy servant, and the Son Of thine own handmaid save.
17 Show me some sign for good, That all my foes may see, And be ashamed, because thou, Lord, Dost help and comfort me.
