“Save me from the lion’s mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns.”
The plea but You, O Lord, do not be far off; O my strength, come quickly to help me shifts to urgent petition for divine rescue. The addressing of God as strength appeals to God's power. The urgency of quickly emphasizes the imminence of death. This verse transitions from lament to petition for aid.
