| [1] Heare thou O God of iustice, be attentiue vnto my complaynt: geue eare vnto my prayer, not [proceeding] out of fayned lyppes |
[1]Hear the right, O LORD, attend unto my cry, give ear unto my prayer, that goeth not out of feigned lips. |
| [2]Let iudgement come foorth for me from thy face: and let thine eyes loke vpon equitie |
[2]Let my sentence come forth from thy presence; let thine eyes behold the things that are equal. |
| [3]Thou hast proued myne heart, thou hast visited [it] in the nyght season: thou hast tryed me, and founde no [wickednesse, for] I purposed that nothyng shoulde scape my mouth |
[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. |
| [4]As touchyng [other] mens workes: through the wordes of thy lyppes I haue kept me from the way of the violent |
[4]Concerning the works of men, by the word of thy lips I have kept me from the paths of the destroyer. |
| [5]O holde thou vp my goynges in thy pathes: that my footesteppes slyp not |
[5]Hold up my goings in thy paths, that my footsteps slip not. |
| [6]I call vpon thee O God, for thou wilt heare me: incline thine eare to me, hearken vnto my wordes |
[6]I have called upon thee, for thou wilt hear me, O God: incline thine ear unto me, and hear my speech. |
| [7]Shewe thy marueylous louyng kindnesse: thou that art the sauiour of them that trust in thee, from such as ryse vp agaynst thy ryght hande |
[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. |
| [8]Kepe me as the apple of an eye, hyde me vnder the shadowe of thy wynges: from the face of the vngodly that go about to destroy me, [from] myne enemies that compasse me rounde about to take away my soule |
[8]Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings, |
| [9]They haue inclosed [them selues] in their owne fat: with their mouth they speake proude thynges |
[9]From the wicked that oppress me, from my deadly enemies, who compass me about. |
| [10]They haue nowe compassed me on euery syde [where] our way [lyeth]: they toote with their eyes to ouerthrow [me] downe on the grounde |
[10]They are inclosed in their own fat: with their mouth they speak proudly. |
| [11]His [doynges] be lyke a lions that is greedy to take a pray: and as a lions whelpe lurkyng in secrete places |
[11]They have now compassed us in our steps: they have set their eyes bowing down to the earth; |
| [12]Aryse O God, preuent his commyng, make hym to bowe: delyuer thou my soule from the vngodly [which is] thy sworde |
[12]Like as a lion that is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young lion lurking in secret places. |
| [13][Deliuer thou] me O God from men [which be] thy hande: from men, from the worlde, whose portion [is] in this lyfe, whose bellyes thou fyllest with thy priuie [treasure] |
[13]Arise, O LORD, disappoint him, cast him down: deliver my soul from the wicked, which is thy sword: |
| [14]Whose children haue aboundaunce: & they leaue enough of that they haue remaynyng to their babes |
[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. |
| [15]But as for me, I will beholde thy face in ryghteousnesse: I shalbe satisfied when I awake vp after thy lykenesse |
[15]As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness. |
