2. Let my sentence come forth from thy presence; Let thine eyes look upon equity.
3. Thou hast proved my heart; thou hast visited me in the night; Thou hast tried me, and findest nothing; I am purposed that my mouth shall not transgress.
4. As for the works of men, by the word of thy lips I have kept me from the ways of the violent.
5. My steps have held fast to thy paths, My feet have not slipped.
6. I have called upon thee, for thou wilt answer me, O God: Incline thine ear unto me, and hear my speech.
7. Show thy marvellous lovingkindness, O thou that savest by thy right hand them that take refuge in thee From those that rise up against them.
8. Keep me as the apple of the eye; Hide me under the shadow of thy wings,
9. From the wicked that oppress me, My deadly enemies, that compass me about.
