1 Being falsely accused by Chush one of Saul's kinsemen, he calleth to God to be his defender, 2 To whom he commendeth his innocencie, 9 First shewing that his conscience did not accuse him of any evil toward Saul, 10 Next that it touched God's glorie to award sentence against the wicked. 12 And so entering into the consideration of God's mercies and promise, he waxeth bold and derideth the vain enterprises of his enemies, 16 Threatening that it shal fall on their own neck that which they have purposed for others.
^Shigaión of David, which he sang unto the Lord, concerning the
^words of
*Chush the son of Jemini.
1.O Lord my God, in thee I put me trust: save me from all that persecute me, and deliver me.
10.My defence is in God, who preserveth the upright in heart.
13.He hath also prepared him deadly weapons: he wil ordain his arrows for them that persecute me.
15.He hath made a pit and digged it, and is fallen into the pit that he made.
16.His mischief shal return upon his own head, and his crueltie shal fall upon his own pate.
