17:1 |
Hear, O LORD, my righteous plea; listen to my cry. Give ear to my prayer-- it does not rise from deceitful lips.
|
17:2 |
May my vindication come from you; may your eyes see what is right.
|
17:3 |
Though you probe my heart and examine me at night, though you test me, you will find nothing; I have resolved that my mouth will not sin.
|
17:4 |
As for the deeds of men-- by the word of your lips I have kept myself from the ways of the violent.
|
17:5 |
My steps have held to your paths; my feet have not slipped.
|
17:6 |
I call on you, O God, for you will answer me; give ear to me and hear my prayer.
|
17:7 |
Show the wonder of your great love, you who save by your right hand those who take refuge in you from their foes.
|
17:8 |
Keep me as the apple of your eye; hide me in the shadow of your wings
|
17:9 |
from the wicked who assail me, from my mortal enemies who surround me.
|
17:10 |
They close up their callous hearts, and their mouths speak with arrogance.
|
17:11 |
They have tracked me down, they now surround me, with eyes alert, to throw me to the ground.
|
17:12 |
They are like a lion hungry for prey, like a great lion crouching in cover.
|
17:13 |
Rise up, O LORD, confront them, bring them down; rescue me from the wicked by your sword.
|
17:14 |
O LORD, by your hand save me from such men, from men of this world whose reward is in this life. You still the hunger of those you cherish; their sons have plenty, and they store up wealth for their children.
|
17:15 |
And I--in righteousness I will see your face; when I awake, I will be satisfied with seeing your likeness.
