2. Let my sentence of vindication come from You! May Your eyes behold the things that are just and upright.
3. You have proved my heart; You have visited me in the night; You have tried me and find nothing [no evil purpose in me]; I have purposed that my mouth shall not transgress.
4. Concerning the works of men, by the word of Your lips I have avoided the ways of the violent (the paths of the destroyer).
5. My steps have held closely to Your paths [to the tracks of the One Who has gone on before]; my feet have not slipped.
