17. Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; save me in thy mercy.
18. Let me not be confounded, O Lord, for I have called upon thee. Let the wicked be ashamed, and be brought down to hell.
19. Let deceitful lips be made dumb. Which speak iniquity against the just, with pride and abuse.
20. O how great is the multitude of thy sweetness, O Lord, which thou hast hidden for them that fear thee! Which thou hast wrought for them that hope in thee, in the sight of the sons of men.
21. Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy face, from the disturbance of men. Thou shalt protect them in thy tabernacle from the contradiction of tongues.
22. Blessed be the Lord, for he hath shewn his wonderful mercy to me in a fortified city.
23. But I said in the excess of my mind: I am cast away from before thy eyes. Therefore thou hast heard the voice of my prayer, when I cried to thee.
24. O love the Lord, all ye his saints: for the Lord will require truth, and will repay them abundantly that act proudly.
25. Do ye manfully, and let your heart be strengthened, all ye that hope in the Lord.
