1
To the chief Musician upon Nehiloth, A Psalm of David. Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my meditation.
Gee oor aan my woorde, o HERE, oorweeg my meditasie.
King James Version
AFR DVK
2
Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray.
Luister na die stem van my geroep, my Koning, en my God: want tot U sal ek bid.
3
My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct [my prayer] unto thee, and will look up.
My stem sal U in die môre hoor, o HERE; in die môre sal ek my gebed tot U rig, en sal uitsien.
4
For thou [art] not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee.
Want U is nie ‚'n God wat behae in goddeloosheid het nie: en die boosheid sal nie by U woon nie.
5
The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
Die dwase sal nie voor u oë staan nie: U haat al die werkers van ongeregtigheid.
6
Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the LORD will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.
U sal dié vernietig wat leuens spreek: die HERE sal die bloeddorstige en bedrieglike man verafsku.
7
But as for me, I will come [into] thy house in the multitude of thy mercy: [and] in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.
Maar wat my betref, ek sal in die menigte van u barmhartigheid in u huis kom: in u vrees sal ek my voor u heilige tempel neerbuig.
8
Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face.
Lei my, o HERE, in u geregtigheid vanweë my vyande; maak u weg reg voor my aangesig.
9
For [there is] no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part [is] very wickedness; their throat [is] an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.
Want daar is geen getrouheid in hulle mond nie; hulle binneste is baie goddeloosheid; hulle keel is ‚'n oop graf; hulle vlei met hulle tong.
10
Destroy thou them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against thee.
Vernietig U hulle, o God; laat hulle val deur hulle eie raad; drywe hulle uit in die menigte van hulle oortredings; want hulle het teen U gerebelleer.
11
But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.
Maar laat almal wat op U vertrou, juig: laat hulle altyd met vreugde uitroep, omdat U hulle verdedig: laat hulle ook wat u Naam liefhet, in U vrolik wees.
12
For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as [with] a shield.
Want U, HERE, sal die regverdige seën; met guns sal U hom soos met ’n skild omring.
