A praier in distresse.
the 7. key.
Dauid in distresse crieth to God for helpe, 6. confidently trusting
therin, 8. and promising sacrifice of thanksgeuing.
1 Vnto the end, in songs vnderstanding for David 2 when the Zipheites were come, and said
to Saul: Is not Dauid hid with vs? (1. Reg. 1. 23. & 26. )
3 O GOD saue me in thy name: and in thy strength iudge me.
4 O God heare my prayer with thine eares: receiue the words of my mouth.
5 Because strāgers haue risen vp against me, & the strong haue sought my soule: and they haue not set God before their eies.
6 For behold God helpeth me: and our Lord is the receiuer of my soule.
7 Turne away the euils to mine enimies: and in thy truth destroy them.
8 I wil voluntarily sacrifice to thee, and wil confesse to thy name ô Lord, because it is good:
9 Because thou hast deliuered me out of al tribulation: and mine eie hath looked downe vpon mine enimies.
