helpeth
Doth provide succor
Helpeth is an archaic verb form meaning "helps," using the *-eth* suffix that marked third-person singular present tense in Early Modern English.
It survives mainly in biblical and liturgical contexts: The Lord is my shepherd; he helpeth me in times of trouble.
Outside religious or deliberately archaic speech, the form is obsolete.
