⁶ Listen closely to my prayer, O Lord;
    hear my urgent cry.

¹ O Lord, hear me as I pray;
    pay attention to my groaning.
² Listen to my cry for help, my King and my God,
    for I pray to no one but you.

² Hear my cry, O Lord.
    Pay attention to my prayer.

¹ O Lord, hear my plea for justice.
    Listen to my cry for help.
Pay attention to my prayer,
    for it comes from honest lips.

¹ Listen to my prayer, O God.
    Do not ignore my cry for help!
