14. the ones my lips uttered,the ones my mouth spoke when I was in deep trouble.
15. I will offer the best burned offerings to youalong with the smoke of sacrificed rams.I will offer both bulls and goats. Selah
16. Come close and listen,all you who honor God;I will tell you what God has done for me:
17. My mouth cried out to himwith praise on my tongue.
18. If I had cherished evil in my heart,my Lord would not have listened.
19. But God definitely listened.He heard the sound of my prayer.
20. Bless God! He didn’t reject my prayer;he didn’t withhold his faithful love from me.
