[p. 81]

...my soul in your word. My soul hoped in the Lord. From the morning watch until the evening, from the morning watch Israel hoped in the Lord. From the Lord is abundant mercy, and from him is redemption, and he redeemed Israel from all its distresses.

THE END

[Tone] DK (Plagal Fourth Tone / *Dałkʿ*). Lord, hear my prayer; give ear to my supplications in Your truth. Hear me in Your righteousness, and enter not into judgment with Your servant, for in Your sight no one living shall be justified. The enemy has persecuted my soul; he has brought low my life down to the earth, and made me dwell in darkness like those long dead. My spirit grew weary within me, and my heart within me was troubled. I remembered the days of old; I meditated on all Your works; I meditated on the creations of Your hands, and I lifted up my hands to You. My soul [is] like a thirsty land before You; hear me swiftly, O Lord, for my spirit has fainted from me. Turn not Your face away from me.
