King James Bible |
Youngs Literal Translation |
|
| 17:1 | Hear |
A Prayer of David. Hear, O Jehovah, righteousness, attend my cry, Give ear `to' my prayer, without lips of deceit. |
| 17:2 | Let my sentence come forth from thy presence; let thine eyes behold the things that are equal. | From before thee my judgment doth go out; Thine eyes do see uprightly. |
| 17:3 | 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. | Thou hast proved my heart, Thou hast inspected by night, Thou hast tried me, Thou findest nothing; My thoughts pass not over my mouth. |
| 17:4 | Concerning the works of men, by the word of thy lips I have kept me from the paths of the destroyer. | As to doings of man, Through a word of Thy lips I have observed The paths of a destroyer; |
| 17:5 | Hold up my goings in thy paths, that my footsteps |
To uphold my goings in Thy paths, My steps have not slidden. |
| 17:6 | I have called upon thee, for thou wilt hear me, O God: incline thine ear unto me, and hear my speech. | I -- I called Thee, for Thou dost answer me, O God, incline Thine ear to me, hear my speech. |
| 17:7 | 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. | Separate wonderfully Thy kindness, O Saviour of the confiding, By Thy right hand, from withstanders. |
| 17:8 | Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings, | Keep me as the apple, the daughter of the eye; In shadow of Thy wings thou dost hide me. |
| 17:9 | From the wicked |
From the face of the wicked who spoiled me. Mine enemies in soul go round against me. |
| 17:10 | They are inclosed in their own fat: with their mouth they speak proudly. | Their fat they have closed up, Their mouths have spoken with pride: |
| 17:11 | They have now compassed us in our steps: they have set their eyes bowing down to the earth; | `Our steps now have compassed `him';' Their eyes they set to turn aside in the land. |
| 17:12 | His likeness as a lion desirous to tear, As a young lion dwelling in secret places. | |
| 17:13 | Arise, O LORD, |
Arise, O Jehovah, go before his face, Cause him to bend. Deliver my soul from the wicked, Thy sword, |
| 17:14 | From men which are thy hand, O LORD, from men of the world, which have their portion in this life, and whose belly thou fillest with thy hid treasure: |
From men, Thy hand, O Jehovah, From men of the world, their portion `is' in life, And `with' Thy hidden things Thou fillest their belly, They are satisfied `with' sons; And have left their abundance to their sucklings. |
| 17:15 | As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness. | I -- in righteousness, I see Thy face; I am satisfied, in awaking, `with' Thy form! |
