verse 10 Down doth he crouch, and to the dust he humbly bows withal, ⟨p. 42⟩That so a multitude of poor in his strong paws may •all. verse 11 He saith in's heart God hath forgot, he bides his face away, So that he will not see this thing unto eternal aye.
(2) verse 12 Jehovah rise thou up, O God lift up •hine hand on high, Cast not the meek afflicted one out of thy memory. verse 13 O wherefore doth the wicked man contemn th' almighty one. He in his heart saith, thou wilt not make inquisition.
verse 14 Thou seest, for thou markest wrong & spite wi•h thy hand to repay, The poor leaves it to thee: thou art of fatherless the stay. verse 15 The wickeds arm in pieces break, and o• •he evil one Search thou out his impiety, until thou findest none.
