1. O Lord my God, in thee I have put my trust: save me from all those that persecute me, and deliver me
2. Lest they take my soul, as a lion dismembers his prey when there is none to deliver.
3. O Lord my God, if I have done this: if there is iniquity in my hands,
4. if I have rewarded evil unto him that was at peace with me, then let my persecutor escape without retribution.
