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.
Let the wordsH561 of my mouthH6310, and the meditationH1902 of my heartH3820, be acceptableH7522 in thy sightH6440, O LORDH3068, my strengthH6697, and my redeemerH1350. {strength: Heb. rock}
ShewH3045 me thy waysH1870, O LORDH3068; teachH3925 me thy pathsH734.
O LordH136, openH6605 thou my lipsH8193; and my mouthH6310 shall shew forthH5046 thy praiseH8416.
OpenH1540 thou mine eyesH5869, that I may beholdH5027 wondrous thingsH6381 out of thy lawH8451. {Open: Heb. Reveal}
Turn awayH5674 mine eyesH5869 from beholdingH7200 vanityH7723; and quickenH2421 thou me in thy wayH1870. {Turn…: Heb. Make to pass}
SetH7896 a watchH8108, O LORDH3068, before my mouthH6310; keepH5341 the doorH1817 of my lipsH8193.
Because they provokedH4784 his spiritH7307, so that he spake unadvisedlyH981 with his lipsH8193.
MyG3450 brethrenG80, beG1096 notG3361 manyG4183 mastersG1320, knowingG1492 thatG3754 we shall receiveG2983 the greaterG3187 condemnationG2917. {condemnation: or, judgment}
ForG1063 in many thingsG4183 we offendG4417 allG537. If any manG1536 offendG4417 notG3756 inG1722 wordG3056, the sameG3778 is a perfectG5046 manG435, and ableG1415 alsoG2532 to bridleG5468 the wholeG3650 bodyG4983.
BeholdG2400, we putG906 bitsG5469 inG1519 the horses'G2462 mouthsG4750, thatG4314 theyG846 may obeyG3982 usG2254; andG2532 we turn aboutG3329 theirG846 wholeG3650 bodyG4983.
BeholdG2400 alsoG2532 the shipsG4143, which though they beG5607 so greatG5082, andG2532 are drivenG1643 ofG5259 fierceG4642 windsG417, yet are they turned aboutG3329 withG5259 a very smallG1646 helmG4079, whithersoeverG3699+G302 the governorG2116 listethG3730+G1014.
EvenG2532 soG3779 the tongueG1100 isG2076 a littleG3398 memberG3196, andG2532 boasteth great thingsG3166. BeholdG2400, how greatG2245 a matterG5208 a littleG3641 fireG4442 kindlethG381! {a matter: or, wood}
AndG2532 the tongueG1100 is a fireG4442, a worldG2889 of iniquityG93: soG3779 isG2525 the tongueG1100 amongG1722 ourG2257 membersG3196, that it defilethG4695 the wholeG3650 bodyG4983, andG2532 setteth on fireG5394 the courseG5164 of natureG1078; andG2532 it is set on fireG5394 ofG5259 hellG1067. {course: Gr. wheel}
ForG1063 everyG3956 kindG5449 of beastsG2342, andG5037+G2532 of birdsG4071, andG5037 of serpentsG2062, andG2532 of things in the seaG1724, is tamedG1150, andG2532 hath been tamedG1150 of mankindG5449+G442: {kind: Gr. nature} {mankind: Gr. nature of man}
ButG1161 the tongueG1100 canG1410 noG3762 manG444 tameG1150; it is an unrulyG183 evilG2556, fullG3324 of deadlyG2287 poisonG2447.
TherewithG1722+G846 bless weG2127 GodG2316, evenG2532 the FatherG3962; andG2532 therewithG1722+G846 curse weG2672 menG444, whichG3588 are madeG1096 afterG2596 the similitudeG3669 of GodG2316.
Out ofG1537 the sameG846 mouthG4750 proceedethG1831 blessingG2129 andG2532 cursingG2671. MyG3450 brethrenG80, these thingsG5023 oughtG5534 notG3756 soG3779 to beG1096.
DothG3385 a fountainG4077 send forthG1032 atG1537 the sameG846 placeG3692 sweetG1099 water andG2532 bitterG4089? {place: or, hole}
CanG3361+G1410 the fig treeG4808, myG3450 brethrenG80, bearG4160 olive berriesG1636? eitherG2228 a vineG288, figsG4810? soG3779 can noG3762 fountainG4077 both yieldG4160 saltG252 waterG5204 andG2532 freshG1099.
WhoG5101 is a wise manG4680 andG2532 endued with knowledgeG1990 amongG1722 youG5213? let him shewG1166 out ofG1537 a goodG2570 conversationG391 hisG846 worksG2041 withG1722 meeknessG4240 of wisdomG4678.
ButG1161 ifG1487 ye haveG2192 bitterG4089 envyingG2205 andG2532 strifeG2052 inG1722 yourG5216 heartsG2588, gloryG2620 notG3361, andG2532 lie notG5574 againstG2596 the truthG225.
ThisG3778 wisdomG4678 descendethG2076+G2718 notG3756 from aboveG509, butG235 is earthlyG1919, sensualG5591, devilishG1141. {sensual: or, natural}
ForG1063 whereG3699 envyingG2205 andG2532 strifeG2052 is, thereG1563 is confusionG181 andG2532 everyG3956 evilG5337 workG4229. {confusion: Gr. tumult or unquietness}
ButG1161 the wisdomG4678 that is from aboveG509 isG2076 firstG4412 pureG3303+G53, thenG1899 peaceableG1516, gentleG1933, and easy to be intreatedG2138, fullG3324 of mercyG1656 andG2532 goodG18 fruitsG2590, without partialityG87, andG2532 without hypocrisyG505. {partiality: or, wrangling}
AndG1161 the fruitG2590 of righteousnessG1343 is sownG4687 inG1722 peaceG1515 of them that makeG4160 peaceG1515.
