1A Psalm of David. LORD, I cry unto thee: make haste unto me; give ear unto my voice, when I cry unto thee.
2Biar doaku dipersembahkan di hadapanmu sebagai dupa; dan pengangkatan tanganku sebagai korban waktu petang.
3Pasanglah kawal, ya TUHAN, di depan mulutku; peliharalah pintu bibirku.
4Incline not my heart to any evil thing, to practise wicked works with men that work iniquity: and let me not eat of their dainties.
5Biar orang benar memukulku; itu merupakan kebudian: dan biarlah dia mencelaku; itu merupakan suatu minyak yang sempurna, yang tidak akan memecahkan kepalaku: sebab doa-doaku masih kekal juga pada waktu kesusahan mereka.
6When their judges are overthrown in stony places, they shall hear my words; for they are sweet.
7Our bones are scattered at the grave's mouth, as when one cutteth and cleaveth wood upon the earth.
8But mine eyes are unto thee, O GOD the Lord: in thee is my trust; leave not my soul destitute.leave�: Heb. make not my soul bare
9Keep me from the snares which they have laid for me, and the gins of the workers of iniquity.
10Let the wicked fall into their own nets, whilst that I withal escape.escape: Heb. pass over
