Metrical Psalms 1650

Psalms 38:13-22 Metrical Psalms 1650 (MP1650)

13. But, as one deaf, that heareth not,I suffer'd all to pass;I as a dumb man did become,whose mouth not open'd was:

14. As one that hears not, in whose mouthare no reproofs at all.

15. For, Lord, I hope in thee; my God,thou'lt hear me when I call.

16. For I said, Hear me, lest they shouldrejoice o'er me with pride;And o'er me magnify themselves,when as my foot doth slide.

17. For I am near to halt, my griefis still before mine eye:

18. For I'll declare my sin, and grievefor mine iniquity.

19. But yet mine en'mies lively are,and strong are they beside;And they that hate me wrongfullyare greatly multiply'd.

20. And they for good that render ill,as en'mies me withstood;Yea, ev'n for this, because that Ido follow what is good.

21. Forsake me not, O Lord; my God,far from me never be.

22. O Lord, thou my salvation art,haste to give help to me.
