1 Oração de Davi: Ouve, SENHOR, a [minha] justiça; presta atenção ao meu choro, dá ouvidos à minha oração de lábios que não enganam.
2 De diante de teu rosto saia o meu julgamento; teus olhos observarão o que é justo.
3 Tu [já] provaste o meu coração, tu [me] visitaste de noite; tu me investigaste, [e] nada achaste; decidi [que] minha boca não transgredirá.
4 Quanto às obras dos homens, conforme a palavra de teus lábios eu me guardei dos caminhos do violento;
5 Guiando meu andar em teus caminhos, para que meus passos não tropecem.
