O Lord, I beseech thee, let now thine ear be attentive to the prayer of thy servant, and to the prayer of thy servants, who desire to (d) fear thy name: and prosper, I pray thee, thy servant this day, and grant him mercy in the sight of (e) this man. For I was the king's cupbearer.
(d) That is, to worship you.
(e) That is, the king Artaxerxes.
