Psalms 17:1-6

Third Millennium Bible TMB

1 <<A Prayer of David.>> Hear the right, O LORD; attend unto my cry! Give ear unto my prayer, which goeth not out of feigned lips.

2 Let my sentence come forth from Thy presence; let Thine eyes behold things with equity.

3 Thou hast tested mine heart; Thou hast visited me in the night; Thou hast tried me and shalt find nothing; I am purposed that my mouth shall not transgress.

4 Concerning the works of men, by the word of Thy lips I have been kept from the paths of the destroyer.

5 Uphold my goings in Thy paths, that my footsteps slip not.

6 I have called upon Thee, for Thou wilt hear me, O God; incline Thine ear unto me and hear my speaking.

New International Version NIV

1 Hear me, LORD, my plea is just; listen to my cry. Hear my prayer— it does not rise from deceitful lips.

2 Let my vindication come from you; may your eyes see what is right.

3 Though you probe my heart, though you examine me at night and test me, you will find that I have planned no evil; my mouth has not transgressed.

4 Though people tried to bribe me, I have kept myself from the ways of the violent through what your lips have commanded.

5 My steps have held to your paths; my feet have not stumbled.

6 I call on you, my God, for you will answer me; turn your ear to me and hear my prayer.
