- 1[A Psalm of David.] LORD, I cry unto thee: make haste unto me; give ear unto my voice, when I cry unto thee.מִזְמ֗וֹר לְדָ֫וִ֥ד יְהוָ֣ה קְ֭רָאתִיךָ ח֣וּשָׁה הַאֲזִ֥ינָה ק֝וֹלִ֗י בְּקָרְאִי
- 2Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.תִּכּ֤וֹן תְּפִלָּתִ֣י קְטֹ֣רֶת לְפָנֶ֑יךָ מַֽשְׂאַ֥ת כַּ֝פַּ֗י מִנְחַת עָֽרֶב
- 3Set a watch, O LORD, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.שִׁיתָ֣ה יְ֭הוָה שָׁמְרָ֣ה לְפִ֑י נִ֝צְּרָ֗ה עַל דַּ֥ל שְׂפָתָֽי
- 4Incline not my heart to any evil thing, to practise wicked works with men that work iniquity: and let me not eat of their dainties.אַל תַּט לִבִּ֨י לְדָבָ֪ר רָ֡ע לְהִתְע֘וֹלֵ֤ל עֲלִל֨וֹת בְּרֶ֗שַׁע אֶת אִישִׁ֥ים פֹּֽעֲלֵי אָ֑וֶן וּבַל אֶ֝לְחַ֗ם בְּמַנְעַמֵּיהֶֽם
- 5Let the righteous smite me; it shall be a kindness: and let him reprove me; it shall be an excellent oil, which shall not break my head: for yet my prayer also shall be in their calamities.יֶֽהֶלְמֵֽנִי צַדִּ֨יק חֶ֡סֶד וְֽיוֹכִיחֵ֗נִי שֶׁ֣מֶן רֹ֭אשׁ אַל יָנִ֣י רֹאשִׁ֑י כִּי ע֥וֹד וּ֝תְפִלָּתִ֗י בְּרָעוֹתֵיהֶֽם
- 6When their judges are overthrown in stony places, they shall hear my words; for they are sweet.נִשְׁמְט֣וּ בִֽידֵי סֶ֭לַע שֹׁפְטֵיהֶ֑ם וְשָׁמְע֥וּ אֲ֝מָרַ֗י כִּ֣י נָעֵֽמוּ
- 7Our bones are scattered at the grave's mouth, as when one cutteth and cleaveth wood upon the earth.כְּמ֤וֹ פֹלֵ֣חַ וּבֹקֵ֣עַ בָּאָ֑רֶץ נִפְזְר֥וּ עֲ֝צָמֵ֗ינוּ לְפִ֣י שְׁאֽוֹל
- 8But mine eyes are unto thee, O GOD the Lord: in thee is my trust; leave not my soul destitute.כִּ֤י אֵלֶ֨יךָ יְהֹוִ֣ה אֲדֹנָ֣י עֵינָ֑י חָ֝סִ֗יתִי אַל תְּעַ֥ר נַפְשִֽׁי
- 9Keep me from the snares which they have laid for me, and the gins of the workers of iniquity.שָׁמְרֵ֗נִי מִ֣ידֵי פַ֭ח יָ֣קְשׁוּ וּ֝מֹקְשׁ֗וֹת פֹּ֣עֲלֵי אָֽוֶן
- 10Let the wicked fall into their own nets, whilst that I withal escape.יִפְּל֣וּ בְמַכְמֹרָ֣יו רְשָׁעִ֑ים יַ֥חַד אָ֝נֹכִ֗י עַֽד אֶעֱבֽוֹר

Hebrew verse gematria
YHWSA calculates these totals directly from every consonant in the tagged Hebrew source line using the Carlo Suarès letter-number system; vowel points and cantillation marks do not add values. The totals are not reverse-mapped from English. A matching number is a comparison to investigate, not proof that two passages mean the same thing.
