Psalms 17:1-7

1 <<A Prayer by David.>> Hear, LORD, my righteous plea; Give ear to my prayer, that doesn't go out of deceitful lips.

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 sentence come forth from your presence; Let your eyes look on equity.

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

3 You have proved my heart; you have visited me in the night; You have tried me, and found nothing; I have resolved that my mouth shall not disobey.

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 As for the works of men, by the word of your lips I have kept myself from the ways of the violent.

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 fast to your paths, My feet have not slipped.

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

6 I have called on you, for you will answer me, God: Turn your ear to me. Hear my speech.

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

7 Show your marvelous lovingkindness, You who save those who take refuge by your right hand from their enemies.

7 Show me the wonders of your great love, you who save by your right hand those who take refuge in you from their foes.
