1 H8085 A Prayer of David.

Hear H6664 the right, H3068 O Jehovah, H7181 attend H7440 unto my cry; H238 Give ear H8605 unto my prayer, H3808 that goeth not H4820 out of feigned H8193 lips.

2 H4941 Let my sentence H3318 come forth H6440 from thy presence; H5869 Let thine eyes H2372 look H4339 upon equity.

3 H974 Thou hast proved H3820 my heart; H6485 Thou hast visited H3915 me in the night; H6884 Thou hast tried H4672 me, and findest H2161 nothing; I am purposed H6310 that my mouth H5674 shall not transgress.

4 H6468 As for the works H120 of men, H1697 by the word H8193 of thy lips H8104 I have kept H734 me from the ways H6530 of the violent.

5 H838 My steps H8551 have held fast H4570 to thy paths, H6471 My feet H4131 have not slipped.

6 H7121 I have called H6030 upon thee, for thou wilt answer H410 me, O God: H5186 Incline H241 thine ear H8085 unto me, and hear H565 my speech.

7 H6395 Show thy marvellous H2617 lovingkindness, H3467 O thou that savest H3225 by thy right hand H2620 them that take refuge H6965 in thee From those that rise up against them.

8 H8104 Keep H380 me as the apple H1323 of the eye; H5641 Hide H6738 me under the shadow H3671 of thy wings,

9 H6440 From H7563 the wicked H2098 that H7703 oppress H5315 me, My deadly H341 enemies, H5362 that compass me about.

10 H5462 They are inclosed H2459 in their own fat: H6310 With their mouth H1696 they speak H1348 proudly.

11 H5437 They have now compassed H838 us in our steps; H7896 They set H5869 their eyes H5186 to cast us down H776 to the earth.

12 H1825 He is like H738 a lion H3700 that is greedy H2963 of his prey, H3715 And as it were a young lion H3427 lurking H4565 in secret places.

13 H6965 Arise, H3068 O Jehovah, H6923 Confront H6440 him, H3766 cast him down: H6403 Deliver H5315 my soul H7563 from the wicked H2719 by thy sword;

14 H4962 From men H3027 by thy hand, H3068 O Jehovah, H4962 From men H2465 of the world, H2506 whose portion H2416 is in this life, H990 And whose belly H4390 thou fillest H6840 with thy treasure: H7646 They are satisfied H1121 with children, H3240 And leave H3499 the rest H5768 of their substance to their babes.

15 H2372 As for me, I shall behold H6440 thy face H6664 in righteousness; H7646 I shall be satisfied, H6974 when I awake, H8544 with beholding thy form.
