9 Hide not thy [pleased] face from me. O put me not away in wrath, Thou wast [thou art] my help alone; ⟨p. 39⟩Forsake not me, who art the God Of my [health] and salvation.
10 When my Father and Mother both Do me in [greatest] straits forsake, Even then the Lord will gather me, And up my fainting soul will take.
11 Teach me thy righteous way, O Lord, [And] in a plain path lead [thou] me, Because of those who are my foes, And my [watchful] observers be.
12 Leave me not to mine enemies will, [Many] false witnesses arise Against me, and malicious men, Who breath out [wrath and] cruelties.
