2 Attend and hear me in my plaint; Regard my [sad and] mournful noise.
3 Because of enemies slanderous voice, And [wicked] mens oppression great; On me they cast iniquity, And me in [cruel] wrath they hate.
3 Because of enemies slandrous voice, And [wicked] mens oppression great; On me they cast iniquity, And me in [cruel] wrath they hate.
4 My heart in me sore pained is, Death's [shaking] terrors on me fall.
5 On me come trembling fear; and dread Hath covered me [o'er whelmed] withal.
5 On me come trembling fear; and dread Hath cover'd me [o're whelm'd] withall.
