Psalms 17

1 A Prayer of David. Hear the right, O LORD, attend unto my cry; give ear unto my prayer from lips without deceit.

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 judgment come forth from Thy presence; let Thine eyes behold equity.

From to before you judgment my may it come forth eyes your may they see uprightness.

3 Thou hast tried my heart, Thou hast visited it in the night; Thou hast tested me, and Thou findest not that I had a thought which should not pass my mouth.

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 doings of men, by the word of Thy lips I have kept me 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 Thy paths, my feet have not slipped.

They have held firm steps my in tracks your not they have been shaken footsteps my.

6 As for me, I call upon Thee, for Thou wilt answer me, O God; incline Thine ear unto 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 Make passing great Thy mercies, O Thou that savest by Thy right hand from assailants them that take refuge in Thee.

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 the eye, hide me in the shadow of Thy 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 that oppress, my deadly enemies, that compass me about.

From before wicked [people] who they have assailed me enemies my with soul they surround me.

10 Their gross heart they have shut tight, with their mouth they speak proudly.

Fat their they have closed up mouth their they have spoken with pride.

11 At our every step they have now encompassed us; 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 eager to tear in pieces, and like 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, O LORD, confront him, cast him down; deliver my soul from the wicked, by Thy sword;

Arise! O Yahweh confront! face his make bow down him deliver! life my from [the] wicked sword your.

14 From men, by Thy hand, O LORD, from men of the world, whose portion is in this life, and whose belly Thou fillest with Thy treasure; who have children in plenty, and leave their abundance to their babes.

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 behold Thy face in righteousness; I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with Thy likeness.

I in righteousness I will see face your I will be satisfied when awake likeness your.
