Psalm 17
King James
Hear the right, O Yahuweh, attend unto my cry, give ear unto my prayer, that goeth not out of feigned lips.   2Let my sentence come forth from thy presence; let thine eyes behold the things that are equal. 3Thou 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. 4Concerning the works of men, by the word of thy lips I have kept me from the paths of the destroyer. 5Hold up my goings in thy paths, that my footsteps slip not.  6I have called upon thee, for thou wilt hear me, O God: incline thine ear unto me, and hear my speech. 7Shew 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. 
8Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings, 9From the wicked that oppress me, from my deadly enemies, who compass me about.   10They are inclosed in their own fat: with their mouth they speak proudly. 11They have now compassed us in our steps: they have set their eyes bowing down to the earth; 12Like as a lion that is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.   13Arise, O LORD, disappoint him, cast him down: deliver my soul from the wicked, which is thy sword:   14From 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.   15As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.
The Living Bible
17      I am pleading for your help, O Lord; for I have been honest and have done what is right, and you must listen to my earnest cry! 2Publicly acquit me, Lord, for you are always fair. 3You have tested me and seen that I am good. You have come even in the night and found nothing amiss and know that I have told the truth. 4I have followed your commands and have not gone along with cruel and evil men. 5My feet have not slipped from your paths.
6Why am I praying like this? Because I know you will answer me, O God! Yes, listen as I pray. 7Show me your strong love in wonderful ways, O Savior of all those seeking your help against their foes. 8Protect me as you would the pupil of your eye; hide me in the shadow of your wings as you hover over me.
9My enemies encircle me with murder in their eyes. 10They are pitiless and arrogant. Listen to their boasting. 11They close in upon me and are ready to throw me to the ground. 12They are like lions eager to tear me apart, like young lions hiding and waiting their chance.
13-14Lord, arise and stand against them. Push them back! Come and save me from these men of the world whose only concern is earthly gain—these men whom you have filled with your treasures so that their children and grandchildren are rich and prosperous.
15But as for me, my contentment is not in wealth but in seeing you and knowing all is well between us. And when I awake in heaven, I will be fully satisfied, for I will see you face-to-face.

New Revised Standard Version
Hear a just cause, O Lord; attend to my cry;
give ear to my prayer from lips free of deceit.
2 From you let my vindication come;
let your eyes see the right.
3 If you try my heart, if you visit me by night,
if you test me, you will find no wickedness in me;
my mouth does not transgress.
4 As for what others do, by the word of your lips
I have avoided the ways of the violent.
5 My steps have held fast to your paths;
my feet have not slipped.
6 I call upon you, for you will answer me, O God;
incline your ear to me, hear my words.
7 Wondrously show your steadfast love,
O savior of those who seek refuge
from their adversaries at your right hand.
8 Guard me as the apple of the eye;
hide me in the shadow of your wings,
9 from the wicked who despoil me,
my deadly enemies who surround me.
10 They close their hearts to pity;
with their mouths they speak arrogantly.
11 They track me down; now they surround me;
they set their eyes to cast me to the ground.
12 They are like a lion eager to tear,
like a young lion lurking in ambush.
13 Rise up, O Lord, confront them, overthrow them!
By your sword deliver my life from the wicked,
14 from mortals—by your hand, O Lord—
from mortals whose portion in life is in this world.
May their bellies be filled with what you have stored up for them;
may their children have more than enough;
may they leave something over to their little ones.
15 As for me, I shall behold your face in righteousness;
when I awake I shall be satisfied, beholding your likeness.
