Chapter summary

An urgent fragment, nearly identical to the close of Psalm 40: 'Make haste, O God, to deliver me; make haste to help me, O Jehovah.' Let them be put to shame that seek after my soul; let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee; let such as love thy salvation say continually, 'Let God be magnified.' 'But I am poor and needy; make haste unto me, O God… O Jehovah, tarry not.' The church made its opening words a daily prayer.
