In context

6And now, behold, he has lifted up my head over mine enemies: I went round and offered in his tabernacle the sacrifice of joy; I will sing, even sing psalms to the Lord.

7Hear, O Lord, my voice which I have uttered aloud: Pity me, and hearken to me.

— Psalms 26:8 —

9Turn not thy face away from me, Turn not thou away from thy servant in anger: Be thou my helper, forsake me not; And, O God my Savior, overlook me not.

10For my father and my mother have forsaken me, But the Lord has taken me to himself.
