 NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 1 For the choir director; for flute accompaniment. A Psalm of David. Give ear to my words, O LORD, Consider my groaning. | 1 Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my meditation. | 1 Give ear to my words, O Jehovah, Consider my meditation. | 1 Unto the end, for her that obtaineth the inheritance. A psalm of David. Give ear, O Lord, to my words, understand my cry. | 1 To the Overseer, 'Concerning the Inheritances.' -- A Psalm of David. My sayings hear, O Jehovah, Consider my meditation. | 2 Heed the sound of my cry for help, my King and my God, For to You I pray. | 2 Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray. | 2 Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God; For unto thee do I pray. | 2 Hearken to the voice of my prayer, O my King and my God. | 2 Be attentive to the voice of my cry, My king and my God, For unto Thee I pray habitually. | 3 In the morning, O LORD, You will hear my voice; In the morning I will order my prayer to You and eagerly watch. | 3 My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up. | 3 O Jehovah, in the morning shalt thou hear my voice; In the morning will I order my prayer unto thee, and will keep watch. | 3 For to thee will I pray: O Lord, in the morning thou shalt hear my voice. | 3 Jehovah, at morning Thou hearest my voice, At morning I set in array for Thee, And I look out. | 4 For You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness; No evil dwells with You. | 4 For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee. | 4 For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: Evil shall not sojourn with thee. | 4 In the morning I will stand before thee, and will see: because thou art not a God that willest iniquity. | 4 For not a God desiring wickedness art Thou, Evil inhabiteth Thee not. | 5 The boastful shall not stand before Your eyes; You hate all who do iniquity. | 5 The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity. | 5 The arrogant shall not stand in thy sight: Thou hatest all workers of iniquity. | 5 Neither shall the wicked dwell near thee: nor shall the unjust abide before thy eyes. | 5 The boastful station not themselves before Thine eyes: Thou hast hated all working iniquity. | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 6 You destroy those who speak falsehood; The LORD abhors the man of bloodshed and deceit. | 6 Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the LORD will abhor the bloody and deceitful man. | 6 Thou wilt destroy them that speak lies: Jehovah abhorreth the blood-thirsty and deceitful man. | 6 Thou hatest all the workers of iniquity: Thou wilt destroy all that speak a lie. The bloody and the deceitful man the Lord will abhor. | 6 Thou destroyest those speaking lies, A man of blood and deceit Jehovah doth abominate. | 7 But as for me, by Your abundant lovingkindness I will enter Your house, At Your holy temple I will bow in reverence for You. | 7 But as for me, I will come into thy house in the multitude of thy mercy: and in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple. | 7 But as for me, in the abundance of thy lovingkindness will I come into thy house: In thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple. | 7 But as for me in the multitude of thy mercy, I will come into thy house; I will worship towards thy holy temple, in thy fear. | 7 And I, in the abundance of Thy kindness, I enter Thy house, I bow myself toward Thy holy temple in Thy fear. | 8 O LORD, lead me in Your righteousness because of my foes; Make Your way straight before me. | 8 Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face. | 8 Lead me, O Jehovah, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; Make thy way straight before my face. | 8 Conduct me, O Lord, in thy justice: because of my enemies, direct my way in thy sight. | 8 O Jehovah, lead me in Thy righteousness, Because of those observing me, Make straight before me Thy way, | 9 There is nothing reliable in what they say; Their inward part is destruction itself. Their throat is an open grave; They flatter with their tongue. | 9 For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue. | 9 For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; Their inward part is very wickedness; Their throat is an open sepulchre; They flatter with their tongue. | 9 for there is no truth in their mouth; their heart is vain. | 9 For there is no stability in their mouth. Their heart is mischiefs, An open grave is their throat, Their tongue they make smooth. | 10 Hold them guilty, O God; By their own devices let them fall! In the multitude of their transgressions thrust them out, For they are rebellious against You. | 10 Destroy thou them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against thee. | 10 Hold them guilty, O God; Let them fall by their own counsels; Thrust them out in the multitude of their transgressions; For they have rebelled against thee. | 10 Their throat is an open sepulchre: they dealt deceitfully with their tongues: judge them, O God. Let them fall from their devices: according to the multitude of their wickedness cast them out: for they have provoked thee, O Lord. | 10 Declare them guilty, O God, Let them fall from their own counsels, In the abundance of their transgressions Drive them away, Because they have rebelled against Thee. | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 11 But let all who take refuge in You be glad, Let them ever sing for joy; And may You shelter them, That those who love Your name may exult in You. | 11 But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee. | 11 But let all those that take refuge in thee rejoice, Let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: Let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee. | 11 But let all them be glad that hope in thee: they shall rejoice for ever, and thou shalt dwell in them. And all they that love thy name shall glory in thee: | 11 And rejoice do all trusting in Thee, To the age they sing, and Thou coverest them over, And those loving Thy name exult in Thee. | 12 For it is You who blesses the righteous man, O LORD, You surround him with favor as with a shield. | 12 For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield. | 12 For thou wilt bless the righteous; O Jehovah, thou wilt compass him with favor as with a shield. | 12 For thou wilt bless the just. O Lord, thou hast crowned us, as with a shield of thy good will. | 12 For Thou blessest the righteous, O Jehovah, As a buckler with favour dost compass him! |
