Psalm 17 3-9

Repurposed wall art, Heart and wings crown and keyhole

Psalm 17:3-9


Though you probe my heart,
    though you examine me at night and test me,
you will find that I have planned no evil;

    my mouth has not transgressed. 
Though people tried to bribe me,

    I have kept myself from the ways of the violent
    through what your lips have commanded.
 
My steps have held to your paths;
    my feet have not stumbled.
I call on you, my God, for you will answer me;
    turn your ear to me and hear my prayer.
Show me the wonders of your great love, 
you who save by your right hand
    those who take refuge in you from their foes.
Keep me as the apple of your eye;
    hide me in the shadow of your wings
from the wicked who are out to destroy me,
    from my mortal enemies who surround me.
