10 I have not in my heart concealed Thy [sacred] truth and righteousness, But openly I have declared Thy [saving] grace and faithfulness. Thy loving kindness I declared, I did it not [from men] conceal; To thy great Congregations Thy [holy] truth I did reveal.
10 I have not in my heart conceal'd Thy [sacred] truth and righteousness, But openly I have declar'd Thy [saving] grace and faithfulness. Thy loving kindness I declar'd, I did it not [from men] conceal; To thy great Congregations Thy [holy] truth I did reveal.
11 Thy tender saving mercies, Lord, With hold not, nor [to me] deny; Let thy benignity and truth Keep me [from ill] continually.
12 For I am compassed about With evils [great and] manifold; I am not able to look up, My sins [on me] do take such hold. More than hairs on my head they are, Therefore my [failing] heart's dismayed; Be pleased, Lord, to deliver me, [O Lord] make hast to be my aid.
