Chapter 17
Psal Noyes 17:1  Hear the righteous cause, O LORD! Attend to my cry; Give ear to my prayer from lips without deceit!
Psal Noyes 17:2  May my sentence come forth from thy presence; May thine eyes behold uprightness!
Psal Noyes 17:3  Provest thou my heart, visitest thou me in the night, Triest thou me like gold, thou shalt find nothing!
Psal Noyes 17:4  My thoughts do not vary from my lips. As to the deeds of men, Through the word of thy lips I have kept me from the paths of the destroyer.
Psal Noyes 17:5  Support my steps in thy paths, That my feet may not slip!
Psal Noyes 17:6  I call upon thee, O God! for thou wilt hear me; Incline thine ear to me, and listen to my prayer!
Psal Noyes 17:7  Show forth thy loving-kindness, O thou that savest by thy right hand Them that seek refuge in thee from their adversaries!
Psal Noyes 17:8  Guard me as the apple of the eye; Hide me under the shadow of thy wings
Psal Noyes 17:9  From the wicked who assault me, From my deadly enemies who compass me about!
Psal Noyes 17:10  They shut up their hard heart; With their mouth they speak haughtily.
Psal Noyes 17:11  They encompass us in all our steps; They fix their eyes upon us, that they may cast us on the ground.
Psal Noyes 17:12  They are like a lion, eager for his prey; Like a young lion, lurking in secret places.
Psal Noyes 17:13  Arise, O LORD! disappoint them, cast them down! Deliver me from the wicked by thy sword,
Psal Noyes 17:14  From men, by thy hand, O LORD! from men of the world, Whose portion is in life; whom thou loadest with thy treasure; Whose children have enough, and leave their superfluity to their children.
Psal Noyes 17:15  But I through righteousness shall see thy face; I shall be satisfied with the revival of thy countenance.
