10 Remove from me thy heavy hand, Under thy [chastening] stroke I pine.
11 When with rebukes thou chastenest man [Justly] for his iniquity, His strength dissolveth like a moth; Thus [every] man is vanity.
12 Lord hear my prayer, regard my cries, [And be] not silent at my tears, ⟨p. 64⟩I sojourn and a stranger am [On earth] as all my fathers were.
12 Lord hear my pray'r, regard my cries, [And be] not silent at my tears, ⟨p. 64⟩I sojourn and a stranger am [On earth] as all my fathers were.
13 O spare me yet; prolong my days, My strength and peace [do thou] restore, Before I go from hence by death, And shall be seen [on earth] no more.
