Save me, O God; for the waters have come in to my soul.

I am weary of crying, my throat has become hoarse; mine eyes have failed by my waiting on my God.

O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my transgressions are not hidden from thee.

Let not them that wait on thee, O Lord of hosts, be ashamed on my account: let not them that seek thee, be ashamed on my account, O God of Israel.

But I will cry to thee, O Lord, in my prayer; O God, it is a propitious time: in the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy salvation.

O God, go not far from me, O my God, draw nigh to my help.

O God, thou hast taught me from my youth, and until now will I declare thy wonders;

I will also therefore give thanks to thee, O God, because of thy truth, on an instrument of psalmody: I will sing psalms to thee on the harp, O Holy One of Israel.

O God, give thy judgment to the king, and thy righteousness to the king’s son;
