Psalms - Chapter: 17
| 17:1 | Hear the right, O LORD, attend unto my cry, give ear unto my prayer, that goeth not out of feigned lips. |
| 17:2 | Let my sentence come forth from thy presence; let thine eyes behold the things that are equal. |
| 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. |
| 17:4 | Concerning the works of men, by the word of thy lips I have kept me from the paths of the destroyer. |
| 17:5 | Hold up my goings in thy paths, that my footsteps slip not. |
| 17:6 | I have called upon thee, for thou wilt hear me, O God: incline thine ear unto me, and 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. |
| 17:8 | Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings, |
| 17:9 | From the wicked that oppress me, from my deadly enemies, who compass me about. |
| 17:10 | They are inclosed in their own fat: with their mouth they speak proudly. |
| 17:11 | They have now compassed us in our steps: they have set their eyes bowing down to the earth; |
| 17:12 | Like as a lion that is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young lion lurking in secret places. |
| 17:13 | Arise, O LORD, disappoint him, cast him down: deliver my soul from the wicked, which is 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: they are full of children, and leave the rest of their substance to their babes. |
| 17:15 | As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness. |
| 17:1 | The prayer of Dauid. Heare the right, O Lord, consider my crye: hearken vnto my prayer of lips vnfained. |
| 17:2 | Let my sentence come forth from thy presence, and let thine eyes beholde equitie. |
| 17:3 | Thou hast prooued and visited mine heart in the night: thou hast tryed me, and foundest nothing: for I was purposed that my mouth should not offend. |
| 17:4 | Concerning the workes of men, by the wordes of thy lips I kept mee from the paths of the cruell man. |
| 17:5 | Stay my steps in thy paths, that my feete doe not slide. |
| 17:6 | I haue called vpon thee: surely thou wilt heare me, O God: incline thine eare to me, and hearken vnto my wordes. |
| 17:7 | Shewe thy marueilous mercies, thou that art the Sauiour of them that trust in thee, from such as resist thy right hand. |
| 17:8 | Keepe me as the apple of the eye: hide me vnder the shadowe of thy wings, |
| 17:9 | From the wicked that oppresse mee, from mine enemies, which compasse me round about for my soule. |
| 17:10 | They are inclosed in their owne fat, and they haue spoken proudely with their mouth. |
| 17:11 | They haue compassed vs now in our steps: they haue set their eyes to bring downe to the ground: |
| 17:12 | Like as a lyon that is greedy of pray, and as it were a lyons whelp lurking in secret places. |
| 17:13 | Vp Lord, disappoint him: cast him downe: deliuer my soule from the wicked with thy sworde, |
| 17:14 | From men by thine hand, O Lord, from men of the world, who haue their portion in this life, whose bellies thou fillest with thine hid treasure: their children haue ynough, and leaue the rest of their substance for their children. |
| 17:15 | But I will beholde thy face in righteousnes, and when I awake, I shalbe satisfied with thine image. |
