13:9 Saying, O Lord, Lord, the King Almighty: for the whole world is in thy power, and if thou hast appointed to save Israel, there is no man that can gainsay thee:
13:10 For thou hast made heaven and earth, and all the wondrous things under the heaven.
13:11 Thou art Lord of all things, and there is no man that can resist thee, which art the Lord.
13:12 Thou knowest all things, and thou knowest, Lord, that it was neither in contempt nor pride, nor for any desire of glory, that I did not bow down to proud Aman.
13:13 For I could have been content with good will for the salvation of Israel to kiss the soles of his feet.
13:14 But I did this, that I might not prefer the glory of man above the glory of God: neither will I worship any but thee, O God, neither will I do it in pride.
13:15 And now, O Lord God and King, spare thy people: for their eyes are upon us to bring us to nought; yea, they desire to destroy the inheritance, that hath been thine from the beginning.
13:16 Despise not the portion, which thou hast delivered out of Egypt for thine own self.
13:17 Hear my prayer, and be merciful unto thine inheritance: turn our sorrow into joy, that we may live, O Lord, and praise thy name: and destroy not the mouths of them that praise thee, O Lord.
13:18 All Israel in like manner cried most earnestly unto the Lord, because their death was before their eyes.
