I will not give sleep to mine eyes, nor, to mine eye-lashes, slumber:

Guard me, as the pupil of the eye, - Under the shadow of thy wings, wilt thou hide me:

Show me favour, O Yahweh, for in distress am I, - Wasted with vexation, is mine eye - my soul and my body;

I will make thee discreet, I will point out to thee the way which thou must go, I will fix upon thee mine eye.

Lo! the eye of Yahweh, is toward them who revere him, unto such as are waiting for his lovingkindness:

Let not them who are falsely my foes rejoice over me, As for them who hate me without cause, let them not wink the eye!

Yea they have opened wide against me their mouth, They have said, Aha! Aha! our own eye, hath seen!

For, out of all distress, hath he rescued me, - And, upon my foes, hath, mine own eye, looked.

Mine eye, hath dimmed through affliction; I have called upon thee, O Yahweh, all day long, I have spread out, unto thee, my hands.

So hath mine eye descried them who were lying in wait for me, - Of my wicked assailants, mine ears, shall hear.

He that planteth the ear, shall he not hear? Or, that fashioneth the eye, shall he not have power to see?
