1 A Psalm of David. O LORD, I call upon You; hasten to me! Give ear to my voice when I call to You!1 Lord, I cry unto thee: make haste unto me; give ear unto my voice, when I cry unto thee.1 Jehovah, I have called upon thee; make haste unto me: Give ear unto my voice, when I call unto thee.1 I have cried to the, O Lord, hear me: hearken to my voice, when I cry to thee. 1 A Psalm, by David. O Jehovah, I have called Thee, haste to me, Give ear to my voice when I call to Thee.
2 May my prayer be counted as incense before You; The lifting up of my hands as the evening offering.2 Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.2 Let my prayer be set forth as incense before thee; The lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.2 Let my prayer be directed as incense in thy sight; the lifting up of my hands, as evening sacrifice. 2 My prayer is prepared -- incense before Thee, The lifting up of my hands -- the evening present.
3 Set a guard, O LORD, over my mouth; Keep watch over the door of my lips.3 Set a watch, O LORD, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.3 Set a watch, O Jehovah, before my mouth; Keep the door of my lips.3 Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth: and a door round about my lips. 3 Set, O Jehovah, a watch for my mouth, Watch Thou over the door of my lips.
4 Do not incline my heart to any evil thing, To practice deeds of wickedness With men who do iniquity; And do not let me eat of their delicacies.4 Incline not my heart to any evil thing, to practise wicked works with men that work iniquity: and let me not eat of their dainties.4 Incline not my heart to any evil thing, To practise deeds of wickedness With men that work iniquity: And let me not eat of their dainties.4 Incline not my heart to evil words; to make excuses in sins. With men that work iniquity: and I will not communicate with the choicest of them. 4 Incline not my heart to an evil thing, To do habitually actions in wickedness, With men working iniquity, Yea, I eat not of their pleasant things.
5 Let the righteous smite me in kindness and reprove me; It is oil upon the head; Do not let my head refuse it, For still my prayer is against their wicked deeds.5 Let the righteous smite me; it shall be a kindness: and let him reprove me; it shall be an excellent oil, which shall not break my head: for yet my prayer also shall be in their calamities.5 Let the righteous smite me, it shall be a kindness; And let him reprove me, it shall be as oil upon the head; Let not my head refuse it: For even in their wickedness shall my prayer continue.5 The just shall correct me in mercy, and shall reprove me: but let not the oil of the sinner fatten my head. For my prayer also shall still be against the things with which they are well pleased: 5 The righteous doth beat me in kindness. And doth reprove me, Oil of the head my head disalloweth not, For still my prayer is about their vexations.
NASBKJVASVDRBYLT
6 Their judges are thrown down by the sides of the rock, And they hear my words, for they are pleasant.6 When their judges are overthrown in stony places, they shall hear my words; for they are sweet.6 Their judges are thrown down by the sides of the rock; And they shall hear my words; for they are sweet.6 their judges falling upon the rock have been swallowed up. They shall hear my words, for they have prevailed: 6 Their judges have been released by the sides of a rock, And they have heard my sayings, For they have been pleasant.
7 As when one plows and breaks open the earth, Our bones have been scattered at the mouth of Sheol.7 Our bones are scattered at the grave's mouth, as when one cutteth and cleaveth wood upon the earth.7 As when one ploweth and cleaveth the earth, Our bones are scattered at the mouth of Sheol.7 as when the thickness of the earth is broken up upon the ground: Our bones are scattered by the side of hell. 7 As one tilling and ripping up in the land, Have our bones been scattered at the command of Saul.
8 For my eyes are toward You, O GOD, the Lord; In You I take refuge; do not leave me defenseless.8 But mine eyes are unto thee, O GOD the Lord: in thee is my trust; leave not my soul destitute.8 For mine eyes are unto thee, O Jehovah the Lord: In thee do I take refuge; leave not my soul destitute.8 But o to thee, O Lord, Lord, are my eyes: in thee have I put my trust, take not away my soul. 8 But to Thee, O Jehovah, my Lord, are mine eyes, In Thee I have trusted, Make not bare my soul.
9 Keep me from the jaws of the trap which they have set for me, And from the snares of those who do iniquity.9 Keep me from the snares which they have laid for me, and the gins of the workers of iniquity.9 Keep me from the snare which they have laid for me, And from the gins of the workers of iniquity.9 Keep me from the snare, which they have laid for me, and from the stumblingblocks of them that work iniquity. 9 Keep me from the gin they laid for me, Even snares of workers of iniquity.
10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets, While I pass by safely.10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets, whilst that I withal escape.10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets, Whilst that I withal escape. 10 The wicked shall fall in his net: I am alone until I pass. 10 The wicked fall in their nets together, till I pass over!
