Psalm 55:1

Listen to my prayer, God. Don't hide yourself from my supplication.

Hear my cry, God. Listen to my prayer.

Give ear to my words, Yahweh. Consider my meditation.

Yahweh, don't rebuke me in your anger, neither discipline me in your wrath.

Hear, Yahweh, my righteous plea; Give ear to my prayer, that doesn't go out of deceitful lips.

Don't hide your face from me. Don't put your servant away in anger. You have been my help. Don't abandon me, neither forsake me, God of my salvation.

To you, Yahweh, I call. My rock, don't be deaf to me; lest, if you are silent to me, I would become like those who go down into the pit.

Save me, God, by your name. Vindicate me in your might.

Hear my voice, God, in my complaint. Preserve my life from fear of the enemy.

Hear us, Shepherd of Israel, you who lead Joseph like a flock, you who sit above the cherubim, shine forth.

Yahweh God of Armies, How long will you be angry against the prayer of your people?

Yahweh, God of Armies, hear my prayer. Listen, God of Jacob. Selah.

Hear, Yahweh, my prayer. Listen to the voice of my petitions.

Hurry to answer me, Yahweh. My spirit fails. Don't hide your face from me, so that I don't become like those who go down into the pit.

Yes, when I cry, and call for help, he shuts out my prayer.

For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears open to their prayer; but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil."
