[1] Geue eare vnto my wordes O God: vnderstande thou my pensifnesse [1]Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my meditation.
[2]Hearken thou vnto the voyce of my crying my kyng and my Lorde: for vnto thee I wyll make my prayer [2]Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray.
[3]Thou shalt heare my voyce betymes O God: I wyll early in the morning direct [a prayer] vnto thee, and I wyll looke [for helpe from thee. [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.
[4]For thou art the Lorde that hath no pleasure in wickednesse: neither can any euyll dwell with thee [4]For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee.
[5]Suche as be foolishe, can not stande in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquitie [5]The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
[6]Thou wilt destroy them that make a lye: God wyll abhorre both the bloodthirstie and deceiptfull man [6]Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the LORD will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.
[7]As for me I wyll come into thyne house, [trusting] in the multitude of thy mercy: and in thy feare I will humble my selfe in thyne holy temple [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.
[8]Leade me O God in thy righteousnesse, because of myne enemies: make thy way playne before my face [8]Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face.
[9]For no trueth is in their mouth, their inwarde partes are very wickednesse: their throte 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.
[10]Destroy thou them O Lord, let them perishe through their owne counsailes: cast them out in the multitude of their vngodlinesse, for they haue rebelled against thee [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.
[11]And all they that trust in thee wyll reioyce, they wyll triumph for euer, because thou defendest them: and they that loue thy name, wyll be ioyfull in thee [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.
[12]For thou O God wylt blesse the righteous: and thou wylt compasse hym about with beneuolence, as with a shielde [12]For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.
