King James Bible

  • A psalm of David.

    O LORD, I am calling to you. Please hurry!
    Listen when I cry to you for help!
  • Come to Me Quickly!

    {A Psalm of David.} LORD, I cry unto thee: make haste unto me; give ear unto my voice, when I cry unto thee.
  • Accept my prayer as incense offered to you,
    and my upraised hands as an evening offering.
  • Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.
  • Take control of what I say, O LORD,
    and guard my lips.
  • Set a watch, O LORD, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.
  • Don’t let me drift toward evil
    or take part in acts of wickedness.
    Don’t let me share in the delicacies
    of those who do wrong.
  • Incline not my heart to any evil thing, to practise wicked works with men that work iniquity: and let me not eat of their dainties.
  • Let the godly strike me!
    It will be a kindness!
    If they correct me, it is soothing medicine.
    Don’t let me refuse it.
    But I pray constantly
    against the wicked and their deeds.
  • Let the righteous smite me; it shall be a kindness: and let him reprove me; it shall be an excellent oil, which shall not break my head: for yet my prayer also shall be in their calamities.
  • When their leaders are thrown down from a cliff,
    the wicked will listen to my words and find them true.
  • When their judges are overthrown in stony places, they shall hear my words; for they are sweet.
  • Like rocks brought up by a plow,
    the bones of the wicked will lie scattered without burial.a
  • Our bones are scattered at the grave's mouth, as when one cutteth and cleaveth wood upon the earth.
  • I look to you for help, O Sovereign LORD.
    You are my refuge; don’t let them kill me.
  • But mine eyes are unto thee, O GOD the Lord: in thee is my trust; leave not my soul destitute.
  • Keep me from the traps they have set for me,
    from the snares of those who do wrong.
  • Keep me from the snares which they have laid for me, and the gins of the workers of iniquity.
  • Let the wicked fall into their own nets,
    but let me escape.
  • Let the wicked fall into their own nets, whilst that I withal escape.
