Psalms 26:7-11

⁷Hear, O Lord, my voice which I have uttered aloud: pity me, and hearken to me.

⁸My heart said to thee, I have diligently sought thy face: thy face, O Lord, I will seek.

⁹Turn not thy face away from me, turn not thou away from thy servant in anger: be thou my helper, forsake me not; and, O God my Saviour, overlook me not.

¹⁰For my father and my mother have forsaken me, but the Lord has taken me to himself.

¹¹Teach me, O Lord, in thy way, and guide me in a right path, because of mine enemies.
