Psalm 17:3-7 English Standard Version (ESV)

3. You have tried my heart, you have visited me by night,you have tested me, and you will find nothing;I have purposed that my mouth will not transgress.

4. With regard to the works of man, by the word of your lipsI have avoided the ways of the violent.

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

6. I call upon you, for you will answer me, O God; incline your ear to me; hear my words.

7. Wondrously show your steadfast love,O Savior of those who seek refugefrom their adversaries at your right hand.
