VI. Vau.
41 O Let Thy Mercies come again ‖ to me [D Thou] ETERNAL God; ‖ Let thy Salvation come to me ‖ according to [whats in] thy Word.‖
42 So I a Word shall answer to ‖ him that [falsely] reproaches me; because that I upon thy Word ‖ do [ever] place my Confidence.‖
43 And from my Mouth, O take Thou not ‖ wholly [away] the Word of truth: Because that of thy Judgments I ‖ an [hopeful] expectation have.‖
44 Thus I will always keep thy Law ‖ [I'll do it] long, yea, Eternally.‖
