Hear the
right
, O LORD, attend
unto
my cry ,
give ear unto
my prayer ,
that
goeth
not
out
of
feigned
lips.
A
prayer
of
David.
Hear, O LORD, my righteous
plea;
listen
to
my
cry .
Give ear to
my prayer —
it
comes
from
lips free
of
deceit
.
Let
my sentence
come forth
from thy
presence; let
thine
eyes behold
the
things
that
are
equal
.
May
my vindication
come from Your
presence; may
Your
eyes see
what
is
right
.
Thou
hast
proved
mine
heart; thou
hast
visited me in the night ;
thou
hast
tried
me ,
and shalt
find
nothing
; I am
purposed
that
my mouth shall
not
transgress
.
You
have
tried
my
heart; You
have
visited me in the night .
You
have
tested
me and found
no
evil
; I have
resolved
not
to
sin
with
my mouth.
Concerning
the works
of men ,
by the word of thy
lips I have kept
me
from
the paths
of the destroyer
.
As
for
the deeds
of men —
by the word of Your
lips I have avoided
the ways
of the violent
.
Hold
up
my goings
in
thy
paths ,
that
my footsteps
slip
not.
My steps
have
held
to
Your
paths ;
my feet
have
not slipped
.
I have
called
upon
thee,
for
thou
wilt
hear
me
, O God :
incline thine
ear unto
me ,
and
hear my speech
.
I call
on
You
, O God ,
for
You
will
answer
me.
Incline Your
ear to
me ;
hear my words
.
Shew
thy
marvellous
lovingkindness
, O
thou
that
savest
by thy
right hand them
which
put
their
trust
in
thee
from
those that
rise
up
against
them
.
Show
the
wonders
of
Your
loving
devotion
, You
who
save
by Your
right hand those who
seek
refuge
from
their
foes
.
Keep me as the apple of the
eye ,
hide me under
the shadow of thy
wings ,
Keep me as the apple of Your
eye ;
hide me in
the shadow of Your
wings
From the wicked that
oppress
me, from my deadly
enemies ,
who compass
me about
.
from the wicked who
assail
me, from my mortal
enemies who surround
me.
They are
inclosed
in
their own
fat:
with
their mouth
they
speak proudly
.
They have
closed
their callous
hearts;
their mouths
speak with
arrogance
.
They have now compassed
us in
our
steps:
they
have
set
their eyes bowing
down
to the earth;
They have tracked
us
down,
and
now surround
us ;
their eyes are
set
to cast
us
to
the ground,
Like as
a lion that
is
greedy of
his
prey, and
as
it
were
a young lion lurking in secret
places
.
like a lion greedy for
prey, like
a young lion lurking in ambush
.
Arise, O LORD, disappoint
him,
cast
him
down:
deliver my
soul
from the wicked ,
which
is
thy
sword :
Arise, O LORD, confront
them!
Bring
them
to
their
knees;
deliver me
from the wicked by
Your
sword ,
From men which
are
thy
hand
, O LORD, from men of the world ,
which
have
their
portion in this life ,
and
whose
belly
thou
fillest
with
thy
hid
treasure:
they
are
full
of children,
and leave the
rest
of
their substance
to their babes
.
from such
men, O LORD, by
Your
hand—
from men of the world whose
portion is
in this life .
May
You
fill
the
bellies
of Your
treasured
ones
and satisfy
their
sons,
so
they
leave their abundance
to their children
.
As for me, I will behold thy
face in righteousness :
I
shall
be
satisfied,
when I awake, with
thy
likeness
.
As for me, I will behold Your
face in righteousness ;
when I awake, I
will
be
satisfied
in
Your
presence
.
