Psalms 17:1-4

¹A prayer of David. Listen, O Lord, to my innocence; attend to my piercing cry. Give heed to my prayer out of lips unfeigned.

²Let my vindication come from you, your eyes see the truth.

³When you test my heart when you visit at night, and assay me like silver — you can find no evil. I am determined that my mouth should not lie.

⁴I gave earnest heed to the words of your lips.
