XXVIII] :When my father and my mother forsake me,
 * Then the Lord will take me up.
 * Teach me thy way, O Lord,
 * And lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies.
 * Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies:
 * For false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.
 * I had fainted, unless I had believed
 * To see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.
 * Wait on the Lord:
 * Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart:
 * Wait, I say, on the Lord.


 * Unto thee will I cry, O Lord my rock; be not silent to me:
 * Lest, if thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit.
 * Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee.
 * When I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle.
 * Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity,
