Psalm 16 📜 📕 ↷
Presence of the LORD
1 THE prayer of David. Hear, o Lord my justice: attend my petition. With thine ears hear my prayer, not in deceitful lips.📜💬📚
2 From thy countenance let my judgment proceed: let thine eyes see equities.📜💬📚
3 Thou hast proved my heart, and visited it by night: by fire thou hast examined me, and there is no iniquity found in me.📜💬📚
4 That my mouth speak not the works of men: for the words of thy lips I have kept the hard ways.📜💬📚
5 Perfit my passes in thy paths, that my steps be not moved.📜💬📚
6 I have cried, because thou hast heard me, o God: incline thine ear to me, and hear my words.📜💬📚
7 Make thy mercies marvelous, which savest them that hope in thee.📜💬📚
8 From them that resist thy right hand keep me, as the apple of the eye. Under the shadow of thy wings protect me:📜💬📚
9 from the face of the impious, that have afflicted me. Mine enemies have compassed my soul,📜💬📚
10 they have shut up their fat: their mouth hath spoken pride.📜💬📚
11 Casting me forth now have they compassed me: they have set their eyes to bend them unto the earth.📜💬📚
12 They have taken me as a lion ready to the prey: and as a lion's whelp dwelling in hid places.📜💬📚
13 Arise Lord, prevent him, and supplant him: deliver my soul from the impious, thy sword📜💬📚
14 from the enemies of thy hand. Lord from a few out of the land divide them, in their life: their belly is filled of thy secrets. They are filled with children: and they have left their remnants to their little ones.📜💬📚
15 But I in justice shall appear to thy sight: I shall be filled when thy glory shall appear?📜💬📚
