1 Jehovah, I have called upon thee: make haste unto me; give ear unto my voice, when I call unto thee.
1A Psalm, by David. O Jehovah, I have called Thee, haste to me, Give ear <FI>to<Fi> my voice when I call to Thee.
2 Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense, the lifting up of my hands as the evening oblation.
2My prayer is prepared--incense before Thee, The lifting up of my hands--the evening present.
3 Set a watch, O Jehovah, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.
3Set, O Jehovah, a watch for my mouth, Watch Thou over the door of my lips.
4 Incline not my heart to any evil thing, to practise deeds of wickedness with men that are workers of iniquity; and let me not eat of their dainties.
4Incline 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, it is kindness; and let him reprove me, it is an excellent oil which my head shall not refuse: for yet my prayer also is [for them] in their calamities.
5The righteous doth beat me <FI>in<Fi> kindness. And doth reprove me, Oil of the head my head disalloweth not, For still my prayer <FI>is<Fi> about their vexations.
6 When their judges are thrown down from the rocks, they shall hear my words, for they are sweet.
6Their judges have been released by the sides of a rock, And they have heard my sayings, For they have been pleasant.
7 Our bones are scattered at the mouth of Sheol, as when one cutteth and cleaveth [wood] upon the earth.
7As one tilling and ripping up in the land, Have our bones been scattered at the command of Saul.
8 For unto thee, Jehovah, Lord, are mine eyes; in thee do I trust: leave not my soul destitute.
8But to Thee, O Jehovah, my Lord, <FI>are<Fi> mine eyes, In Thee I have trusted, Make not bare my soul.
