Psalms 17:9
chevron_left
chevron_right
1
Hear the right,
O
L
ORD
, attend unto my cry, give ear unto my prayer,
that goeth
not out of feigned lips.
2
Let my sentence come forth from thy presence; let thine eyes behold the things that are equal.
3
Thou hast proved mine heart; thou hast visited
me
in the night; thou hast tried me,
and
shalt find nothing; I am purposed
that
my mouth shall not transgress.
4
Concerning the works of men, by the word of thy lips I have kept
me from
the paths of the destroyer.
5
Hold up my goings in thy paths,
that
my footsteps slip not.
6
I have called upon thee, for thou wilt hear me, O God: incline thine ear unto me,
and hear
my speech.
7
Shew thy marvellous lovingkindness, O thou that savest by thy right hand them which put their trust
in thee
from those that rise up
against them
.
8
Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings,
From the wicked that oppress me,
from
my deadly enemies,
who
compass me about.
10
They are inclosed in their own fat: with their mouth they speak proudly.
11
They have now compassed us in our steps: they have set their eyes bowing down to the earth;
12
Like as a lion
that
is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.
13
Arise, O
L
ORD
, disappoint him, cast him down: deliver my soul from the wicked,
which is
thy sword:
14
From men
which are
thy hand, O
L
ORD
, from men of the world,
which have
their portion in
this
life, and whose belly thou fillest with thy hid
treasure:
they are full of children, and leave the rest of their
substance
to their babes.
15
As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.
