# Psalm 17 (New King James Version)
Prayer with Confidence in Final Salvation
##### Chapter 17
###### 1 Hear a just cause, O Lord,
Attend to my cry;
Give ear to my prayer _which is_ not from deceitful lips.
###### 2 Let my vindication come from Your presence;
Let Your eyes look on the things that are upright.
###### 3 You have tested my heart;
You have visited _me_ in the night;
You have tried me and have found nothing;
I have purposed that my mouth shall not transgress.
###### 4 Concerning the works of men,
By the word of Your lips,
I have kept away from the paths of the destroyer.
###### 5 Uphold my steps in Your paths,
_That_ my footsteps may not slip.
###### 6 I have called upon You, for You will hear me, O God;
Incline Your ear to me, _and_ hear my speech.
###### 7 Show Your marvelous lovingkindness by Your right hand,
O You who save those who trust _in You_
From those who rise up _against them._
###### 8 Keep me as the apple of Your eye;
Hide me under the shadow of Your wings,
###### 9 From the wicked who oppress me,
_From_ my deadly enemies who surround me.
###### 10 They have closed up their fat _hearts;_
With their mouths they speak proudly.
###### 11 They have now surrounded us in our steps;
They have set their eyes, crouching down to the earth,
###### 12 As a lion is eager to tear his prey,
And like a young lion lurking in secret places.
###### 13 Arise, O Lord,
Confront him, cast him down;
Deliver my life from the wicked with Your sword,
###### 14 With Your hand from men, O Lord,
From men of the world _who have_ their portion in _this_ life,
And whose belly You fill with Your hidden treasure.
They are satisfied with children,
And leave the rest of their _possession_ for their babes.
###### 15 As for me, I will see Your face in righteousness;
I shall be satisfied when I awake in Your likeness.
