Verse KJV King James Version YLT Young's Literal Translation
O LORD my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me , and deliver me :
`The Erring One,' by David, that he sung to Jehovah concerning the words of Cush a Benjamite. O Jehovah, my God, in Thee I have trusted, Save me from all my pursuers , and deliver me .
Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces , while there is none to deliver .
Lest he tear as a lion my soul , Rending, and there is no deliverer .
O LORD my God, If I have done this ; if there be iniquity in my hands ;
O Jehovah, my God, if I have done this , If there is iniquity in my hands ,
If I have rewarded evil unto him that was at peace with me; (yea , I have delivered him that without cause is mine enemy:)
If I have done my well-wisher evil, And draw mine adversary without cause ,
Let the enemy persecute my soul, and take it; yea , let him tread down my life upon the earth, and lay mine honour in the dust. Selah.
An enemy pursueth my soul, and overtaketh , And treadeth down to the earth my life , And my honour placeth in the dust. Selah.
Arise , O LORD , in thine anger, lift up thyself because of the rage of mine enemies: and awake for me to the judgment that thou hast commanded .
Rise , O Jehovah , in Thine anger, Be lifted up at the wrath of mine adversaries, And awake Thou for me : Judgment Thou hast commanded :
So shall the congregation of the people compass thee about: for their sakes therefore return thou on high .
And a company of peoples compass Thee , And over it on high turn Thou back,
The LORD shall judge the people: judge me, O LORD , according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me .
Jehovah doth judge the peoples; Judge me, O Jehovah , According to my righteousness, And according to mine integrity on me ,
Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins.
Let , I pray Thee be ended the evil of the wicked , And establish Thou the righteous , And a trier of hearts and reins is the righteous God .
My defence is of God, which saveth the upright in heart .
My shield ` is ' on God, Saviour of the upright in heart !
God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day .
God `is' a righteous judge , And He is not angry at all times .
If he turn not, he will whet his sword ; he hath bent his bow , and made it ready.
If `one' turn not, His sword he sharpeneth, His bow he hath trodden -- He prepareth it ,
He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death ; he ordaineth his arrows against the persecutors .
Yea, for him He hath prepared Instruments of death , His arrows for burning pursuers He maketh .
Behold , he travaileth with iniquity, and hath conceived mischief , and brought forth falsehood.
Lo , he travaileth ` with ' iniquity, And he hath conceived perverseness , And hath brought forth falsehood.
He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made .
A pit he hath prepared , and he diggeth it, And he falleth into a ditch he maketh .
His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate .
Return doth his perverseness on his head, And on his crown his violence cometh down .
I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness : and will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high .
I thank Jehovah, According to His righteousness , And praise the name of Jehovah Most High !
