1. Hear righteousness, O Lord, attend unto my cry, give ear unto my prayer, that does not go out of feigned lips.
2. Let my sentence come forth from thy presence; let thine eyes behold uprightness.
3. Thou hast proved my heart; thou hast visited me in the night; thou hast refined me and hast found no iniquity; that which I thought did not pass through my mouth.
4. Concerning the works of men, by the word of thy lips I have observed the ways of the violent.
5. Sustain my steps in thy ways that my footsteps not slip.
6. I have called upon thee, because thou dost hear me, O God: incline thine ear unto me and hear my speech.
7. Show thy mercy to be marvellous, O Saviour of those who put their trust in thee, from those that rise up against thy right hand.
8. Keep me as the apple of the eye; hide me with the shadow of thy wings,
