1. O Yahweh, hear a just cause. Hear my cry; heed my prayer I make without deceitful lips.
2. Let my vindication come forth from you; let your eyes see fairness.
3. You have tried my heart; you have examined me by night; you have tested me; you found nothing. I have decided that my mouth will not transgress.
4. As for the works of humankind, by the word of your lips, I have kept from the ways of the violent.
5. I have held my steps in your path My feet will not slip.
6. As for me, I have called on you because you will answer me, O God. Incline your ear to me. Hear my words.
