Let my prayer come before you: incline your ear unto my cry;
If any man trespasses against his neighbor, and an oath is required of him to cause him to swear, and the oath comes before your altar in this house:
I rose before the dawning of the morning, and cried: I hoped in your word.
But you are holy, O you that inhabit the praises of Israel.
Bow down your ear to me; deliver me speedily: be my strong rock, for a house of defense to save me.
Let the sighing of the prisoner come before you; according to the greatness of your power preserve you those that are appointed to die;
Be merciful unto me, O Lord: for I cry unto you daily.
Also when I cry and shout, he shuts out my prayer.
