1 A Psalme of Dauid. O God I call vpon thee, haste thee vnto me: geue eare vnto my voyce whylest I crye vnto thee. VP

2 Let my prayer be directed before thy face as an incense: let the liftyng vp of mine handes be an euenyng sacrifice. VP

3 Set a watch O God before my mouth: and kepe the doore of my lippes. VP

4 Inclyne not myne heart to any euyll thyng, wherby I myght commit any vngodly act with men that be workers of iniquitie: and let me not eate of their delicates. VP

5 I wishe that the ryghteous woulde smite me and reproue me: for it is louing kyndnesse. But let not pretious baulmes breake mine head: for as yet euen my prayer is agaynst their wickednesse. VP

6 Let their iudges be thrust downe headlong from a rocke: then they wyll heare my wordes, for they be sweete. VP

7 Our bones lye scattered vpon the graues mouth: lyke as when one breaketh and heweth wood vpon the earth. VP

8 For mine eyes loke vnto thee O God the Lorde: in thee is my trust, cast not my soule out of me. VP

9 Kepe me from the snare which they haue layde foorth for me: and from the trappes of them that be workers of iniquitie. VP

10 Let the vngodly fall together into their owne nettes: but let me in the meane season alwayes escape them. VP
