KJV 1900King James Version

RESH.

Consider mine affliction, and deliver me:

For I do not forget thy law.

Plead my cause, and deliver me:

Quicken me according to thy word.

Salvation is far from the wicked:

For they seek not thy statutes.

Great are thy tender mercies, O Lord:

Quicken me according to thy judgments.

Many are my persecutors and mine enemies;

Yet do I not decline from thy testimonies.

I beheld the transgressors, and was grieved;

Because they kept not thy word.

Consider how I love thy precepts:

Quicken me, O Lord, according to thy lovingkindness.

Thy word is true from the beginning:

And every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever.
