13:10. Thou hast made heaven and earth and all things that are under the cope of heaven.
13:11. Thou art Lord of all, and there is none that can resist thy majesty.
13:12. Thou knowest all things, and thou knowest that it was not out of pride and or any desire of glory, that I refused to worship the proud Aman,
13:13. (For I would willingly and readily for the salvation of Israel have kissed even the steps of his feet,)
13:14. But I feared lest I should transfer the honour of my God to a man, and lest I should adore any one except my God.
13:15. And now, O Lord, O king, O God of Abraham, have mercy on thy people, because our enemies resolve to destroy us, and extinguish thy inheritance.
13:16. Despise not thy portion, which thou hast redeemed for thyself out of Egypt.
13:17. Hear my supplication, and be merciful to thy lot and inheritance, and turn our mourning into joy, that we may live and praise thy name, O Lord, and shut not the mouths of them that sing to thee.
13:18. And all Israel with like mind and supplication cried to the Lord, because they saw certain death hanging over their heads.
