A PrayerH8605 of DavidH1732. HearH8085 the rightH6664, O LORDH3068, attendH7181 unto my cryH7440, give earH238 unto my prayerH8605, that goeth notH3808 out of feignedH4820 lipsH8193. {the right: Heb. justice} {not…: Heb. without lips of deceit}
Let my sentenceH4941 come forthH3318 from thy presenceH6440; let thine eyesH5869 beholdH2372 the things that are equalH4339.
Thou hast provedH974 mine heartH3820; thou hast visitedH6485 me in the nightH3915; thou hast triedH6884 me, and shalt findH4672 nothing; I am purposedH2161 that my mouthH6310 shall not transgressH5674.
Concerning the worksH6468 of menH120, by the wordH1697 of thy lipsH8193 I have keptH8104 me from the pathsH734 of the destroyerH6530.
Hold upH8551 my goingsH838 in thy pathsH4570, that my footstepsH6471 slipH4131 not. {slip…: Heb. be not moved}
I have calledH7121 upon thee, for thou wilt hearH6030 me, O GodH410: inclineH5186 thine earH241 unto me, and hearH8085 my speechH565.
Shew thy marvellousH6395 lovingkindnessH2617, O thou that savestH3467 by thy right handH3225 them which put their trustH2620 in thee from those that rise upH6965 against them. {by thy…: or, them which trust in thee from those that rise up against thy right hand}
KeepH8104 me as the appleH380 of the eyeH1323+H5869, hideH5641 me under the shadowH6738 of thy wingsH3671,
FromH6440 the wickedH7563 thatH2098 oppressH7703 me, from my deadlyH5315 enemiesH341, who compass me aboutH5362. {oppress: Heb. waste} {my…: Heb. my enemies against the soul}
They are inclosedH5462 in their own fatH2459: with their mouthH6310 they speakH1696 proudlyH1348.
They have now compassedH5437 us in our stepsH838: they have setH7896 their eyesH5869 bowing downH5186 to the earthH776;
LikeH1825 as a lionH738 that is greedyH3700 of his preyH2963, and as it were a young lionH3715 lurkingH3427 in secret placesH4565. {Like…: Heb. The likeness of him (that is, of every one of them) is as a lion that desireth to ravin} {lurking: Heb. sitting}
AriseH6965, O LORDH3068, disappointH6923 himH6440, cast him downH3766: deliverH6403 my soulH5315 from the wickedH7563, which is thy swordH2719: {disappoint…: Heb. prevent his face} {which is: or, by}
From menH4962 which are thy handH3027, O LORDH3068, from menH4962 of the worldH2465, which have their portionH2506 in this lifeH2416, and whose bellyH990 thou fillestH4390 with thy hidH6840 treasure: they are fullH7646 of childrenH1121, and leaveH3240 the restH3499 of their substance to their babesH5768. {which are: or, by} {they…: or, their children are full}
As for me, I will beholdH2372 thy faceH6440 in righteousnessH6664: I shall be satisfiedH7646, when I awakeH6974, with thy likenessH8544.
Querverweise zu Psalm 17,4 Ps 17,4
To the chief MusicianH5329, A Psalm of DavidH1732. The foolH5036 hath saidH559 in his heartH3820, There is no GodH430. They are corruptH7843, they have done abominableH8581 worksH5949, there is none that doethH6213 goodH2896.
The LORDH3068 looked downH8259 from heavenH8064 upon the childrenH1121 of menH120, to seeH7200 if thereH3426 were any that did understandH7919, and seekH1875 GodH430.
They are all gone asideH5493, they are all togetherH3162 become filthyH444: there is none that doethH6213 goodH2896, no, not oneH259. {filthy: Heb. stinking}
BETH. Wherewithal shall a young manH5288 cleanseH2135 his wayH734? by taking heedH8104 thereto according to thy wordH1697.
With my whole heartH3820 have I soughtH1875 thee: O let me not wanderH7686 from thy commandmentsH4687.
Thy wordH565 have I hidH6845 in mine heartH3820, that I might not sinH2398 against thee.
Be soberG3525, be vigilantG1127; becauseG3754 yourG5216 adversaryG476 the devilG1228, asG5613 a roaringG5612 lionG3023, walketh aboutG4043, seekingG2212 whomG5101 he may devourG2666:
And GODH3068 sawH7200 that the wickednessH7451 of manH120 was greatH7227 in the earthH776, and that every imaginationH3336 of the thoughtsH4284 of his heartH3820 was onlyH7535 evilH7451 continuallyH3117. {every…: or, the whole imagination: the Hebrew word signifieth not only the imagination, but also the purposes and desires} {continually: Heb. every day}
When wisdomH2451 enterethH935 into thine heartH3820, and knowledgeH1847 is pleasantH5276 unto thy soulH5315;
DiscretionH4209 shall preserveH8104 thee, understandingH8394 shall keepH5341 thee:
To deliverH5337 thee from the wayH1870 of the evilH7451 man, from the manH376 that speakethH1696 froward thingsH8419;
Who leaveH5800 the pathsH734 of uprightnessH3476, to walkH3212 in the waysH1870 of darknessH2822;
Who rejoiceH8056 to doH6213 evilH7451, and delightH1523 in the frowardnessH8419 of the wickedH7451;
Whose waysH734 are crookedH6141, and they frowardH3868 in their pathsH4570:
AndG2532 they hadG2192 a kingG935 overG1909 themG848, which is the angelG32 of the bottomless pitG12, whoseG846 nameG3686 in the Hebrew tongueG1447 is AbaddonG3, butG2532 inG1722 the Greek tongueG1673 hathG2192 his nameG3686 ApollyonG623. {Apollyon: that is to say, A destroyer}
The earthH776 also was corruptH7843 beforeH6440 GodH430, and the earthH776 was filledH4390 with violenceH2555.
ButG1161 he answeredG611 and saidG2036, It is writtenG1125, ManG444 shallG2198 notG3756 liveG2198 byG1909 breadG740 aloneG3441, butG235 byG1909 everyG3956 wordG4487 that proceedethG1607 out ofG1223 the mouthG4750 of GodG2316.
How much more abominableH8581 and filthyH444 is manH376, which drinkethH8354 iniquityH5766+H5766 like waterH4325?
JesusG2424 saidG5346 unto himG846, It is writtenG1125 againG3825, Thou shaltG1598 notG3756 temptG1598 the LordG2962 thyG4675 GodG2316. {tempt: or, try, or, put to trial, or, proof}
If I coveredH3680 my transgressionsH6588 as AdamH121, by hidingH2934 mine iniquityH5771 in my bosomH2243: {as Adam: or, after the manner of men}
ThenG5119 saithG3004 JesusG2424 unto himG846, Get thee henceG5217, SatanG4567: forG1063 it is writtenG1125, Thou shalt worshipG4352 the LordG2962 thyG4675 GodG2316, andG2532 himG846 onlyG3441 shalt thou serveG3000.
ForG1063 ye areG2075 yetG2089 carnalG4559: forG1063 whereasG3699 there is amongG1722 youG5213 envyingG2205, andG2532 strifeG2054, andG2532 divisionsG1370, are yeG2075 notG3780 carnalG4559, andG2532 walkG4043 asG2596 menG444? {divisions: or, factions} {as men: Gr. according to man?}
ThatG1519 heG980 no longerG3371 should liveG980 the restG1954 of his timeG5550 inG1722 the fleshG4561 to the lustsG1939 of menG444, butG235 to the willG2307 of GodG2316.
AndG2532 takeG1209 the helmetG4030 of salvationG4992, andG2532 the swordG3162 of the SpiritG4151, which isG3603 the wordG4487 of GodG2316:
ForG1063 the timeG5550 pastG3928 of our lifeG979 may sufficeG713 usG2254 to have wroughtG2716 the willG2307 of the GentilesG1484, when we walkedG4198 inG1722 lasciviousnessG766, lustsG1939, excess of wineG3632, revellingsG2970, banquetingsG4224, andG2532 abominableG111 idolatriesG1495:
