Psalms 17
1 “A prayer of David.” Hear, O Lord, [the cause of] righteousness, attend unto my entreaty, give ear unto my prayer, coming 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 from thy presence my sentence come forth; let thy eyes behold what is right.
From to before you judgment my may it come forth eyes your may they see uprightness.
3 Thou hast proved my heart; thou hast thought of me in the night; thou hast refined me—thou couldst find nothing: my purpose doth not pass beyond [the words of] 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 Among the deeds of men did I observe, by the word of thy lips, the paths of the dissolute.
To [the] deeds of humankind by [the] word of lips your I I have watched [the] paths of violent person[s].
5 My steps held firmly to thy tracks, [and] my footsteps did not slip.
They have held firm steps my in tracks your not they have been shaken footsteps my.
6 I call on thee, for thou wilt answer me, O God: incline thy 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 Show marvelously thy loving-kindnesses, O thou that savest those who put their trust [in thee] from those that rise up [against them] by thy right hand.
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; conceal me under 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 despoil me, my enemies, who, to take my life, compass me about.
From before wicked [people] who they have assailed me enemies my with soul they surround me.
10 They are enclosed in their own fat: with their mouth they speak proudly.
Fat their they have closed up mouth their they have spoken with pride.
11 On our steps they now encompass us: they direct their eyes to turn aside in the land.
Steps our now (they have surrounded us *Q(K)*) eyes their they set to bend down on the ground.
12 Every man is just like a lion that is greedy to tear his prey, and like a young lion lurking in a covert.
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, prevent him, cast him down; deliver my soul from the wicked, who is thy sword, —
Arise! O Yahweh confront! face his make bow down him deliver! life my from [the] wicked sword your.
14 From these men—thy hand—O Lord, from the men of this world, whose portion is in this life, and whose belly thou fillest with thy hidden treasure: they have children in plenty, and leave the rest of their substance 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, in righteousness shall I behold thy face: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with contemplating thy likeness.
I in righteousness I will see face your I will be satisfied when awake likeness your.
