A prayer of David. LORD, consider my just cause! Pay attention to my cry for help! Listen to the prayer I sincerely offer!
Make a just decision on my behalf! Decide what is right!
You have scrutinized my inner motives; you have examined me during the night. You have carefully evaluated me, but you find no sin. I am determined I will say nothing sinful.
As for the actions of people– just as you have commanded, I have not followed in the footsteps of violent men.
I carefully obey your commands; I do not deviate from them.
I call to you for you will answer me, O God. Listen to me! Hear what I say!
Accomplish awesome, faithful deeds, you who powerfully deliver those who look to you for protection from their enemies.
