Give ear `
to '
my prayer ,
without
lips of deceit.
May
my
vindication
come
from Your
presence
; may
Your
eyes see what
is
right
.
From before
thee
my
judgment
doth
go
out
; Thine
eyes do
see uprightly
.
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.
Thou
hast
proved
my heart ,
Thou
hast
inspected
by
night ,
Thou
hast
tried
me ,
Thou
findest
nothing
; My
thoughts
pass
not over
my mouth.
As for
the
deeds
of men—
by
the
word of Your
lips I have avoided
the ways
of the
violent.
As to
doings
of man,
Through
a
word of Thy
lips I have observed
The paths
of a
destroyer;
My
steps
have
held
to Your
paths ;
my feet
have not slipped
.
To uphold
my
goings
in
Thy
paths ,
My steps
have not slidden
.
I call
on
You,
O
God
, for You
will
answer me .
Incline Your
ear to me ;
hear my words
.
I --
I
called
Thee
, for Thou
dost
answer me ,
O
God,
incline Thine
ear to me ,
hear my speech
.
Show
the
wonders
of Your
loving
devotion
, You
who
save
by Your
right hand those
who
seek
refuge
from their
foes
.
Separate
wonderfully
Thy
kindness,
O
Saviour
of the
confiding
, By Thy
right hand ,
from withstanders
.
Keep me as the apple of Your
eye; hide
me
in the
shadow of Your
wings
Keep me as the apple ,
the
daughter
of the
eye; In shadow of Thy
wings thou
dost
hide
me.
from the wicked who assail
me ,
from
my
mortal
enemies who
surround
me.
From the face
of
the
wicked who spoiled
me .
Mine
enemies in
soul
go
round
against
me.
They have closed their
callous
hearts;
their mouths speak
with arrogance.
Their
fat
they have closed up,
Their mouths have
spoken
with pride:
They
have
tracked
us
down,
and
now surround
us
; their eyes are
set to cast
us
to
the ground,
`Our
steps
now have
compassed
`him'
; '
Their eyes they
set to turn
aside
in
the land.
like
a lion greedy
for
prey
, like
a young lion lurking
in ambush
.
His
likeness
as
a lion desirous
to
tear
, As
a young lion dwelling
in secret
places
.
Arise, O LORD
, confront
them!
Bring
them
to their
knees;
deliver me
from the wicked by
Your
sword,
Arise, O Jehovah
, go
before
his
face,
Cause
him
to bend.
Deliver my
soul
from the wicked ,
Thy
sword,
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
.
From men, Thy
hand,
O Jehovah
, From men of the world ,
their
portion `
is '
in life ,
And `with'
Thy
hidden
things
Thou
fillest
their belly
, They are
satisfied
`with'
sons;
And
have
left
their abundance to their sucklings
.
As
for
me,
I will
behold
Your
face
in righteousness ;
when
I
awake
, I will
be
satisfied in Your
presence.
I --
in righteousness, I see
Thy
face;
I
am
satisfied ,
in awaking,
`with'
Thy
form!
