2Let my sentence <04941> come forth <03318> (8799) from thy presence <06440>_; let thine eyes <05869> behold <02372> (8799) the things that are equal <04339>_.
3Thou hast proved <0974> (8804) mine heart <03820>_; thou hast visited <06485> (8804) [me] in the night <03915>_; thou hast tried <06884> (8804) me, [and] shalt find <04672> (8799) nothing; I am purposed <02161> (8800) [that] my mouth <06310> shall not transgress <05674> (8799)_.
4Concerning the works <06468> of men <0120>_, by the word <01697> of thy lips <08193> I have kept <08104> (8804) [me from] the paths <0734> of the destroyer <06530>_.

7Shew thy marvellous <06395> (8685) lovingkindness <02617>_, O thou that savest <03467> (8688) by thy right hand <03225> them which put their trust <02620> (8802) [in thee] from those that rise up <06965> (8693) [against them]. {by thy...: or, them which trust in thee from those that rise up against thy right hand}

12Like <01825> as a lion <0738> [that] is greedy <03700> (8799) of his prey <02963> (8800)_, and as it were a young lion <03715> lurking <03427> (8802) in secret places <04565>_. {Like...: Heb. The likeness of him (that is, of every one of them) is as a lion that desireth to ravin} {lurking: Heb. sitting}
13Arise <06965> (8798)_, O LORD <03068>_, disappoint <06923> (8761) him <06440>_, cast him down <03766> (8685)_: deliver <06403> (8761) my soul <05315> from the wicked <07563>_, [which is] thy sword <02719>_: {disappoint...: Heb. prevent his face} {which is: or, by}
14From men <04962> [which are] thy hand <03027>_, O LORD <03068>_, from men <04962> of the world <02465>_, [which have] their portion <02506> in [this] life <02416>_, and whose belly <0990> thou fillest <04390> (8762) with thy hid <06840> [treasure]: they are full <07646> (8799) of children <01121>_, and leave <03240> (8689) the rest <03499> of their [substance] to their babes <05768>_. {which are: or, by} {they...: or, their children are full}
