Psalm 17:1-3
Contemporary English Version

(A prayer by David.)

The Prayer of an Innocent Person

1 I am innocent, Lord!
Won't you listen as I pray
    and beg for help?
I am honest!
    Please hear my prayer.
2 Only you can say
    that I am innocent,
because only your eyes
    can see the truth.

3 You know my heart,
    and even during the night
you have tested me
    and found me innocent.
I have made up my mind
    never to tell a lie.
