Chapter 17
1 Oración de David. OYE, oh Jehová, justicia; está atento á mi clamor; escucha mi oración hecha sin labios de engaño.
2 De delante de tu rostro salga mi juicio; vean tus ojos la rectitud.
3 Tú has probado mi corazón, hasme visitado de noche; me has apurado, y nada inicuo hallaste: heme propuesto que mi boca no ha de propasarse.
4 Para las obras humanas, por la palabra de tus labios yo me he guardado de las vías del destructor.
5 Sustenta mis pasos en tus caminos, porque mis pies no resbalen.
6 Yo te he invocado, por cuanto tú me oirás, oh Dios: inclina á mí tu oído, escucha mi palabra.
7 Muestra tus estupendas misericordias, tú que salvas á los que en ti confían de los que se levantan contra tu diestra.
8 Guárdame como lo negro de la niñeta del ojo, escóndeme con la sombra de tus alas,
9 De delante de los malos que me oprimen, de mis enemigos que me cercan por la vida.
10 Cerrados están con su grosura; con su boca hablan soberbiamente.
11 Nuestros pasos nos han cercado ahora: puestos tienen sus ojos para echarnos por tierra.
12 Parecen al león que desea hacer presa, y al leoncillo que está escondido.
13 Levántate, oh Jehová; prevén su encuentro, póstrale: libra mi alma del malo con tu espada;
14 De los hombres con tu mano, oh Jehová, de los hombres de mundo, cuya parte es en esta vida, y cuyo vientre hinches de tu tesoro: hartan sus hijos, y dejan el resto á sus chiquitos.
15 Yo en justicia veré tu rostro: seré saciado cuando despertare á tu semejanza.

Psalms

Chapter 17
1 A Prayer of David. Hear the right, O LORD, attend unto my cry, give ear unto my prayer, that goeth not out of feigned lips.
2 Let my sentence come forth from thy presence; let thine eyes behold the things that are equal.
3 Thou hast proved mine heart; thou hast visited me in the night; thou hast tried me, and shalt find nothing; I am purposed that my mouth shall not transgress.
4 Concerning the works of men, by the word of thy lips I have kept me from the paths of the destroyer.
5 Hold up my goings in thy paths, that my footsteps slip not.
6 I have called upon thee, for thou wilt hear me, O God: incline thine ear unto me, and hear my speech.
7 Shew thy marvellous lovingkindness, O thou that savest by thy right hand them which put their trust in thee from those that rise up against them.
8 Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings,
9 From the wicked that oppress me, from my deadly enemies, who compass me about.
10 They are inclosed in their own fat: with their mouth they speak proudly.
11 They have now compassed us in our steps: they have set their eyes bowing down to the earth;
12 Like as a lion that is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.
13 Arise, O LORD, disappoint him, cast him down: deliver my soul from the wicked, which is thy sword:
14 From men which are thy hand, O LORD, from men of the world, which have their portion in this life, and whose belly thou fillest with thy hid treasure: they are full of children, and leave the rest of their substance to their babes.
15 As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.
