Psalm 66:18-20
The Message
16-20 All believers, come here and listen,
let me tell you what God did for me.
I called out to him with my mouth,
my tongue shaped the sounds of music.
If I had been cozy with evil,
the Lord would never have listened.
But he most surely did listen,
he came on the double when he heard my prayer.
Blessed be God: he didn’t turn a deaf ear,
he stayed with me, loyal in his love.
Psalm 66:18

If I regard sin and baseness in my heart [that is, if I know it is there and do nothing about it],
The Lord will not hear [me];(A)
Psalm 66:18
New Living Translation
18 If I had not confessed the sin in my heart,
the Lord would not have listened.
Psalm 66:18

The Lord will not hear.
