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