Hide not thy face from me in the time of my trouble; incline thine ear unto me when I call. O hear me, and that right soon.

Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favour her, yea, the set time, is come.

For thy servants take pleasure in her stones, and favour the dust thereof.

To hear the groaning of the prisoner; to loose those that are appointed to death;

The children of your servants will settle down here, and their descendants will live securely in your presence."

Praise Jehovah, ye his messengers mighty of strength, doing his word, to hear the voice of his word.

He established [the] earth on her foundations, [so that] it will not be moved forever and ever.

Where the birds make their nests: as for the stork, the fir trees are her house.

Here is the sea, vast and wide,
teeming with creatures beyond number—
living things both large and small.

The ships travel there, and over here swims the whale you made to play in it.

They are turned here and there, rolling like a man who is full of wine; and all their wisdom comes to nothing.

The righteous shall see it, and rejoice: and all iniquity shall stop her mouth.

For Your faithful love is higher than the heavens,
and Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.

that thy beloved may be delivered; let thy righthand save them, and hear thou me.

Let his children, wander about, and beg, Let them be driven out of heir ruins;

A psalm of David. Here is the Lord's proclamation to my lord: "Sit down at my right hand until I make your enemies your footstool!"

The Lord is high over all nations, and his glory is higher than the heavens.

He gives the childless woman a household,
making her the joyful mother of children.
Hallelujah!

They have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but they smell not:

I Loved, for Jehovah will hear the voice of my supplication.

O Lord, truly I am your servant; I am your servant, the son of her who is your servant; by you have my cords been broken.

I have declared my ways, and You hear me; teach me Your Precepts.

They have almost destroyed me here on the earth, but I do not reject your precepts.

My eyes weep streams of water
Because people do not keep Your law.

KOPH. I cried with my whole heart; hear me, O LORD: I will keep thy statutes.

Hear my voice according unto thy lovingkindness: O LORD, quicken me according to thy judgment.

The arrows of the hero sharpened, with burning coals of broom.

My soul hath long had her dwelling With him that hateth peace.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem! May those who love her prosper!

Behold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their masters, and as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our eyes wait upon the LORD our God, until that he have mercy upon us.

Jerusalem! mountains are round about her, and Jehovah is round about his people, from henceforth and for evermore.

{A song of the stairs} Out of the deep have I called unto thee, O LORD; LORD, hear my voice.

Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.

Look, we heard of it in Ephrathah; we found her in the fields of Jaar.

For the LORD hath chosen Zion, to be a habitation for himself; he hath longed for her.

This is my rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have desired it.

I will abundantly bless her provision: I will satisfy her poor with bread.

I will also clothe her priests with salvation: and her saints shall shout aloud for joy.

They have ears, but they hear not; neither is there any breath in their mouths.

On [the] willows in her midst, we hung up our lyres.

If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning.

Remember, O Lord, against the sons of Edom,
The day of [the fall of] Jerusalem,
Who said “Down, down [with her]
To her very foundation.”

All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O LORD, when they hear the words of thy mouth.

I said unto the LORD, Thou art my God: hear the voice of my supplications, O LORD.

When their judges are overthrown in stony places, they shall hear my words; for they are sweet.

Hear my cry; for I am brought very low; deliver me from my pursuers; for they are stronger than I.

{A Psalm of David.} Hear my prayer, O LORD, give ear to my supplications: in thy faithfulness answer me, and in thy righteousness.

Hear me speedily, O LORD: my spirit faileth: hide not thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.

Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning; for in thee do I trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul unto thee.

He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear their cry, and will save them.

He giveth snow like wool; He scattereth the hoar-frost like ashes.

A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:

My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother:

Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets:

She crieth in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she uttereth her words, saying,

Then shall they call upon me, but I will not hear: they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me.

If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures;

To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the stranger which flattereth with her words;

Which forsaketh the guide of her youth, and forgetteth the covenant of her God.

For her house inclineth unto death, and her paths unto the dead.

None that go unto her return again, neither take they hold of the paths of life.

For the gain thereof is better than the gain of silver, and her revenue than fine gold.

She is more precious than rubies: and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her.

Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honour.

Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace.

She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her.

Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father, and attend to know understanding.

Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee: love her, and she shall keep thee.

Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her.

Hear, O my son, and receive my sayings; and the years of thy life shall be many.

Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go: keep her; for she is thy life.

For the lips of a strange woman drop as an honeycomb, and her mouth is smoother than oil:

But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a twoedged sword.

Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell.

Lest thou shouldest ponder the path of life, her ways are moveable, that thou canst not know them.

Hear me now therefore, O ye children, and depart not from the words of my mouth.

Remove thy way far from her, and come not nigh the door of her house:

Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always with her love.

Make yourself free, like the roe from the hand of the archer, and the bird from him who puts a net for her.

Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:

Which no leader to her, scribe and ruler;

Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest.

Here are six things that the LORD hates seven, in fact, are detestable to him:

When you walk here and there, they will guide you;
when you lie down, they will watch over you;
when you wake up, they will talk to you.

To keep thee from the wicked woman, from the flattery of the tongue of her that is a stranger.

Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; neither let her take thee with her eyelids.

So he that goeth in to his neighbour's wife; whosoever toucheth her shall not be innocent.

That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words.

Passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house,

Look! A woman makes her way to meet him, dressed as a prostitute and intending to entrap him.

(She is loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house:

At times she was in the streets, at times in the market places,
Lurking and setting her ambush at every corner.

And she laid hold on him, and kissed him, She hath hardened her face, and saith to him,

With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips she forced him.

He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks;

so long till she hath wounded his liver with her dart: like as if a bird hasted to the snare, not knowing that the peril of his life lieth thereupon.

Hear me now therefore, O my son, and mark the words of my mouth.

Let not thine heart decline to her ways, go not astray in her paths.

For she hath cast down many wounded: yea, many strong men have been slain by her.

Her house is the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death.
