15. My times are wholly in thine hand:do thou deliver meFrom their hands that mine enemiesand persecutors be.
16. Thy countenance to shine do thouupon thy servant make:Unto me give salvation,for thy great mercies' sake.
17. Let me not be asham'd, O Lord,for on thee call'd I have:Let wicked men be sham'd, let thembe silent in the grave.
18. To silence put the lying lips,that grievous things do say,And hard reports, in pride and scorn,on righteous men do lay.
19. How great's the goodness thou for themthat fear thee keep'st in store,And wrought'st for them that trust in theethe sons of men before!
