- 0. A prayer of the afflicted,<br>
when hee shall be in distresse,<br>
and poure foorth his meditation before the Lorde. - 1. O Lorde, heare my prayer, and let my crye come vnto thee.
- 2. Hide not thy face from me in the time of my trouble: incline thine eares vnto me: when I call, make haste to heare me.
- 3. For my dayes are consumed like smoke, and my bones are burnt like an herthe.
- 4. Mine heart is smitten and withereth like grasse, because I forgate to eate my bread.
- 5. For the voyce of my groning my bones doe cleaue to my skinne.
- 6. I am like a pelicane of the wildernesse: I am like an owle of the deserts.
- 7. I watch and am as a sparrowe alone vpon the house top.
- 8. Mine enemies reuile me dayly, and they that rage against me, haue sworne against me.
- 9. Surely I haue eaten asshes as bread, and mingled my drinke with weeping,
- 10. Because of thine indignation and thy wrath: for thou hast heaued me vp, and cast me downe.
- 11. My dayes are like a shadowe that fadeth, and I am withered like grasse.
- 12. But thou, O Lorde, doest remaine for euer, and thy remembrance from generation to generation.
- 13. Thou wilt arise & haue mercy vpon Zion: for the time to haue mercie thereon, for the appointed time is come.
- 14. For thy seruants delite in the stones thereof, and haue pitie on the dust thereof.
- 15. Then the heathen shall feare the Name of the Lord, and all the Kings of the earth thy glory,
- 16. When the Lorde shall build vp Zion, and shall appeare in his glory,
- 17. And shall turne vnto the prayer of the desolate, and not despise their prayer.
- 18. This shall be written for the generation to come: and the people, which shalbe created, shall prayse the Lord.
- 19. For he hath looked downe from the height of his Sanctuarie: out of the heauen did the Lord beholde the earth,
- 20. That he might heare the mourning of the prisoner, and deliuer the children of death:
- 21. That they may declare the Name of the Lord in Zion, and his prayse in Ierusalem,
- 22. When the people shalbe gathered together, and the kingdomes to serue the Lorde.
- 23. He abated my strength in the way, and shortened my dayes.
- 24. And I sayd, O my God, take me not away in the middes of my dayes: thy yeeres endure from generation to generation.
- 25. Thou hast aforetime layde the foundation of the earth, and the heauens are the worke of thine hands.
- 26. They shall perish, but thou shalt endure: euen they all shall waxe olde as doeth a garment: as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be changed.
- 27. But thou art the same, and thy yeeres shall not fayle.
- 28. The children of thy seruants shall continue, and their seede shall stand fast in thy sight.
