Psalm 17:3-5

Modern English Version

³ You have examined my heart; You have visited me in the night;
    You have tried me and found nothing;
    I have purposed that my mouth will not transgress.
⁴ Concerning the works of men,
    by the word of Your lips
I have avoided
    the paths of the violent,
⁵ placing my steps in Your paths,
    that my footsteps do not slip.
