A PrayerH8605 of David.H1732 HearH8085 the right,H6664 O LORD,H3068 attendH7181 to my cry,H7440 give earH238 to my prayer,H8605 that goes not out of feignedH4820 lips.H8193
2
Let my sentenceH4941 comeH3318 forthH3318 from your presence;H6440 let your eyesH5869 beholdH2372 the things that are equal.H4339
3
You have provedH974 my heart;H3820 you have visitedH6485 me in the night;H3915 you have triedH6884 me, and shall findH4672 nothing;H1077 I am purposedH2161 that my mouthH6310 shall not transgress.H5674
4
Concerning the worksH6468 of men,H120 by the wordH1697 of your lipsH8193 I have keptH8104 me from the pathsH734 of the destroyer.H6530
5
HoldH8551 up my goingsH838 in your paths,H4570 that my footstepsH6471 slipH4131 not.
6
I have calledH7121 on you, for you will hearH6030 me, O God:H410 inclineH5186 your earH241 to me, and hearH8085 my speech.H565
7
Show your marvelousH6395 loving kindness,H2617 O you that saveH3467 by your rightH3225 handH3225 them which put their trustH2620 in you from those that riseH6965 up against them.
8
KeepH8104 me as the appleH380 H1323 of the eye,H5869 hideH5641 me under the shadowH6738 of your wings,H3671
9
From the wickedH7563 that oppressH7703 me, from my deadlyH5315 enemies,H341 who compassH5362 me about.
10
They are enclosedH5462 in their own fat:H2459 with their mouthH6310 they speakH1696 proudly.H1348
11
They have nowH6258 compassedH5437 us in our steps:H838 they have setH7896 their eyesH5869 bowingH5186 downH5186 to the earth;H776
12
LikeH1825 as a lionH738 that is greedyH3700 of his prey,H2963 and as it were a youngH3715 lionH3715 lurkingH3427 in secretH4565 places.
13
Arise,H6965 O LORD,H3068 disappointH6923 him, castH3766 him down:H3766 deliverH6403 my soulH5315 from the wicked,H7563 which is your sword:H2719
14
From menH4962 which are your hand,H3027 O LORD,H3068 from menH4962 of the world,H2465 which have their portionH2506 in this life,H2416 and whose bellyH990 you fillH4390 with your hidH6845 treasure: they are fullH7646 of children,H1121 and leaveH5117 the restH3499 of their substance to their babes.H5768
15
As for me, I will beholdH2372 your faceH6440 in righteousness:H6664 I shall be satisfied,H7646 when I awake,H6974 with your likeness.H8544
