Let my prayer come before Thee; incline Thine ear unto my cry.
Let my prayer enter into thy presence; Incline thine ear unto my cry.
Let my prayer come before You and enter into Your presence; Incline Your ear to my cry!
Let my prayer come before You and really enter into Your presence; incline Your ear to my cry!
Let my prayer come before thee: incline thine ear unto my cry;
May my prayer reach your presence; listen to my cry.
May my prayer reach your presence; listen to my cry.
let my prayer reach you! Turn your ear to my outcry
Adonai, God of my salvation, when I cry out to you in the night,
please listen carefully to each of my concerns.
Let my prayer come before thee; incline thine ear unto my cry.
The mercies of the Lord I will sing for ever. I will shew forth thy truth with my mouth to generation and generation.
Please pay attention to my prayers. Listen to my prayers for mercy.
Please listen to my prayer! I am calling to you for help!
May my prayer come before you. Turn your ear to my cry.
Let my prayer come before you; incline your ear to my cry!
Let my prayer come before you; incline your ear to my cry!
Receive my prayer, and ·listen [L extend your ear] to my cry.

Let my prayer come before You; Incline Your ear to my cry of lamentation!
Let my prayer come before you; incline your ear to my cry.
Now hear my prayers; oh, listen to my cry,
God, you’re my last chance of the day. I spend the night on my knees before you. Put me on your salvation agenda; take notes on the trouble I’m in. I’ve had my fill of trouble; I’m camped on the edge of hell. I’m written off as a lost cause, one more statistic, a hopeless case. Abandoned as already dead, one more body in a stack of corpses, And not so much as a gravestone— I’m a black hole in oblivion. You’ve dropped me into a bottomless pit, sunk me in a pitch-black abyss. I’m battered senseless by your rage, relentlessly pounded by your waves of anger. You turned my friends against me, made me horrible to them. I’m caught in a maze and can’t find my way out, blinded by tears of pain and frustration. I call to you, God; all day I call. I wring my hands, I plead for help. Are the dead a live audience for your miracles? Do ghosts ever join the choirs that praise you? Does your love make any difference in a graveyard? Is your faithful presence noticed in the corridors of hell? Are your marvelous wonders ever seen in the dark, your righteous ways noticed in the Land of No Memory?
Let my prayer come before You; incline Your ear to my cry.
Let my prayer come into your presence. Turn your ear to hear my cries.
Lord, the God of my salvation, I call out by day; at night I cry aloud in your presence.
Let my prayer come before You; Incline Your ear to my cry!
Let my prayer come before You; Incline Your ear to my cry!
O Lord, the God of my salvation, day and night I cry out to you.
Receive my prayer, and listen to my cry.
Listen to my prayer. Pay attention to my cry for help.
Please hear my prayer. Pay attention to my cry for help.
May my prayer come before you; turn your ear to my cry.
May my prayer come before you; turn your ear to my cry.
Let my prayer come before You; Incline Your ear to my cry.
Let my prayer come to You. Listen to my cry.
Now hear my prayer; listen to my cry.
let my prayer come before you; incline your ear to my cry.
let my prayer come before you; incline your ear to my cry.
let my prayer come before you; incline your ear to my cry.
let my prayer come before you; incline your ear to my cry.
Let my tefillah come before Thee; incline Thine ear unto my cry;
Let my prayer enter into Your presence. Incline Your ear to my cry.
Let my prayer come before thee, incline thy ear to my cry!
Let my prayer come before thee, incline thy ear to my cry!
Adonai, God of my salvation, day and night I cried out before You.
Let my voice reach You! Please listen to my prayers!
Let my prayer enter into your presence. Turn your ear to my cry.
My prayer enter before thy sight (Let my prayer come before thee); bow down thine ear to my prayer.
My prayer cometh in before Thee, Incline Thine ear to my loud cry,
