1. I call upon You, O Lord. Hurry to me! Hear my voice when I call to You!
|
1. A Psalm H4210 of David H1732 . LORD H3068 , I cry H7121 unto thee : make haste H2363 unto me ; give ear H238 unto my voice H6963 , when I cry H7121 unto thee.
|
|
2. May my prayer be like special perfume before You. May the lifting up of my hands be like the evening gift given on the altar in worship.
|
2. Let my prayer H8605 be set forth H3559 before H6440 thee as incense H7004 ; and the lifting up H4864 of my hands H3709 as the evening H6153 sacrifice H4503 .
|
|
3. O Lord, put a watch over my mouth. Keep watch over the door of my lips.
|
3. Set H7896 a watch H8108 , O LORD H3068 , before my mouth H6310 ; keep H5341 H5921 the door H1817 of my lips H8193 .

4. Do not let my heart turn to any sinful thing, to do wrong with men who sin. And do not let me eat their fine food.
|
4. Incline H5186 not H408 my heart H3820 to any evil H7451 thing H1697 , to practice H5953 wicked H7562 works H5949 with H854 men H376 that work H6466 iniquity H205 : and let me not H1077 eat H3898 of their dainties H4516 .
|
|
5. Let those who are right with God punish me and speak strong words to me in kindness. It is oil upon my head. Do not let my head turn away from it. Yet my prayer is always against the sinful works of those who sin.
|
5. Let the righteous H6662 smite H1986 me; it shall be a kindness H2617 : and let him reprove H3198 me; it shall be an excellent H7218 oil H8081 , which shall not H408 break H5106 my head H7218 : for H3588 yet H5750 my prayer H8605 also shall be in their calamities H7451 .

|
6. When their rulers are thrown down from high rocks, they will hear my words, for they are true.
|

|
|
7. Our bones have been spread around the mouth of the grave like the broken ground behind the plow.
|
7. Our bones H6106 are scattered H6340 at the grave H7585 's mouth H6310 , as when H3644 one cutteth H6398 and cleaveth H1234 wood upon the earth H776 .
|
|
8. For my eyes are toward You, O God the Lord. In You I have a safe place. Do not leave me without help.
|
8. But H3588 mine eyes H5869 are unto H413 thee , O GOD H3069 the Lord H136 : in thee is my trust H2620 ; leave not my soul destitute H6168 H408 H5315 .
|
|
9. Keep me from the trap they have set for me. Keep me from the nets of those who do wrong.
|
9. Keep H8104 me from H4480 H3027 the snares H6341 which they have laid H3369 for me , and the gins H4170 of the workers H6466 of iniquity H205 .
|
|
10. Let the sinful fall into their own nets, while I pass by and am safe.
|
10. Let the wicked H7563 fall H5307 into their own nets H4364 , whilst H5704 that I H595 withal H3162 escape H5674 .
