1. Lord, hear me begging for fairness.Listen to my cry for help.Pay attention to my prayer.I speak the truth.
2. You will judge that I am right.Your eyes can see what is true.
3. You have examined my heart.You have tested me all night.You questioned me without finding anything wrong.I did not plan any evil.
4. I have obeyed your commands.I have not done what evil people do.
5. I have done what you told me to do.I have not failed.
6. I call to you, God,and you answer me.Listen to me now.Hear what I say.
7. Your love is wonderful.By your power you savefrom their enemies those who trust you.
8. Protect me as you would protect your own eye.Protect me as a bird hides her young under her wings.
9. Keep me from the wicked who attack me.Protect me from my enemies who surround me.
