PSA 17-1 | Hear the right, O LORD, attend unto my cry, give ear unto my prayer, that goeth not out of feigned lips. |
PSA 17-2 | Let my sentence come forth from thy presence; let thine eyes behold the things that are equal. |
PSA 17-3 | 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. |
PSA 17-4 | Concerning the works of men, by the word of thy lips I have kept me from the paths of the destroyer. |
PSA 17-5 | Hold up my goings in thy paths, that my footsteps slip not. |
PSA 17-6 | I have called upon thee, for thou wilt hear me, O God: incline thine ear unto me, and hear my speech. |
PSA 17-7 | 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. |
PSA 17-8 | Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings, |
PSA 17-9 | From the wicked that oppress me, from my deadly enemies, who compass me about. |

PSA 17-12 | Like as a lion that is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young lion lurking in secret places. |
PSA 17-13 | Arise, O LORD, disappoint him, cast him down: deliver my soul from the wicked, which is thy sword: |
PSA 17-14 | 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. |
PSA 17-15 | As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness. |
