1Hear, O LORD, my righteous plea; listen to my cry. Give ear to my prayer— it comes from lips free of deceit.
“Hear a just cause, O Lord, attend to my cry. Give ear to my prayer, which is not from deceitful lips.”
“Hear the right oh Lord. Attend unto my cry. Give ear unto my prayer. That goeth not out of deceitful lips.”

“I have called upon you, for you will hear me, O God. Incline your ear to me and hear my speech.”
7Show the wonders of Your loving devotion, You who save by Your right hand those who seek refuge from their foes.
“show thy marvelous lovingkindness, O thou that savest us by thy right hand, them which put their trust in thee, from those that rise up against them,”
“Show your marvelous loving kindness by your right hand, O you who save those who trust in you from those who rise up against them.”
8Keep me as the apple of Your eye; hide me in the shadow of Your wings

9from the wicked who assail me, from my mortal enemies who surround me.
“from the wicked who oppress me, from my deadly enemies who surround me.”
“from the wicked who oppress me and from my deadly enemies who surround me.”
“From the wicked that oppress me, from my deadly enemies who compass me about.”
10They have closed their callous hearts; their mouths speak with arrogance.
“They have closed up their fat hearts. With their mouths, they speak proudly.”
11They have tracked us down, and now surround us; their eyes are set to cast us to the ground,
“They have now surrounded us in our steps. They have set their eyes crunching down to the earth”
12like a lion greedy for prey, like a young lion lurking in ambush.
“Like a lion that is greedy of his prey. And as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.”
“as a lion is eager to tear his prey and as a young lion lurking in secret places.”
13Arise, O LORD, confront them! Bring them to their knees; deliver me from the wicked by Your sword,
“Arise, O Lord. Confront him. Cast him down. Deliver my life from the wicked with your sword.”
14from such men, O LORD, by Your hand— from men of the world whose portion is in this life. May You fill the bellies of Your treasured ones and satisfy their sons, so they leave their abundance to their children.
“With your hand from men, O Lord, from men of this world who have their portion in this life and whose belly you fill with your hidden treasure. They are satisfied with children and leave the rest of their possession to their…”
