84 How many are thy Servant's days? O might I live to see, That thou wilt judgment do on them, That persecutors be.
85 The proud malicious sort of men, Who do oppose thy Law, Have digged pits and laid their snares, As if they thought none saw.
86 Thy holy Laws (which they oppose) All faithful are and just, They persecute me wrongfully, Be thou my help and trust.
87 Hunting and wasting me on earth, They scarce alive me leave; Yet I forsake not thy Precepts, But ever to them cleave.
