³ When you probe my heart,
    and examine me at night;
when you refine me,
    you will find nothing wrong,^[a]
        for I have determined that I will not transgress with my mouth.
⁴ As for the ways of mankind,
    I have, according to the words of your lips,
        avoided the ways of the violent.
⁵ Because my steps have held fast to your paths,
    my footsteps have not faltered.
