Psalms 17
1 A Prayer by David. Hear, LORD, my righteous plea. Give ear to my prayer that does not go out of deceitful lips.
A prayer of David hear! O Yahweh - righteousness pay attention to! cry of entreaty my give ear to! prayer my with not lips of deceit.
2 Let my sentence come out of your presence. Let your eyes look on equity.
From to before you judgment my may it come forth eyes your may they see uprightness.
3 You have proved my heart. You have visited me in the night. You have tried me, and found nothing. I have resolved that my mouth shall not disobey.
You have tested heart my - you have visited night you have tested me not you will find I have resolved not it will transgress mouth my.
4 As for the deeds of men, by the word of your lips, I have kept myself from the ways of the violent.
To [the] deeds of humankind by [the] word of lips your I I have watched [the] paths of violent person[s].
5 My steps have held fast to your paths. My feet have not slipped.
They have held firm steps my in tracks your not they have been shaken footsteps my.
6 I have called on you, for you will answer me, God. Turn your ear to me. Hear my speech.
I I call out to you for you will answer me O God incline ear your to me hear utterance my.
7 Show your marvelous loving kindness, you who save those who take refuge by your right hand from their enemies.
Make wonderful covenant loyalti your O deliverer of [those who] take refuge from [those who] rise up by right [hand] your.
8 Keep me as the apple of your eye. Hide me under the shadow of your wings,
Keep me like [the] pupil of [the] daughter of an eye in [the] shadow of wings your you will hide me.
9 from the wicked who oppress me, my deadly enemies, who surround me.
From before wicked [people] who they have assailed me enemies my with soul they surround me.
10 They close up their callous hearts. With their mouth they speak proudly.
Fat their they have closed up mouth their they have spoken with pride.
11 They have now surrounded us in our steps. They set their eyes to cast us down to the earth.
Steps our now (they have surrounded us *Q(K)*) eyes their they set to bend down on the ground.
12 He is like a lion that is greedy of his prey, as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.
Likeness his [is] like a lion [which] it longs to tear to pieces and like a young lion [which] sits in hiding places.
13 Arise, LORD, confront him. Cast him down. Deliver my soul from the wicked by your sword,
Arise! O Yahweh confront! face his make bow down him deliver! life my from [the] wicked sword your.
14 from men by your hand, LORD, from men of the world, whose portion is in this life. You fill the belly of your cherished ones. Your sons have plenty, and they store up wealth for their children.
From men hand your - O Yahweh from men from [the] world [whom] portion their [is] in the life (and treasured [thing] your *Q(K)*) you fill belly their they are satisfied sons and they leave abundance their to children their.
15 As for me, I shall see your face in righteousness. I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with seeing your form.
I in righteousness I will see face your I will be satisfied when awake likeness your.
