Psalm 7:10-12
New Catholic Bible

10 Put an end to the malice of the wicked
    but continue to sustain the righteous,
O God of justice,
    you who search minds and hearts.[a]
11 God is a shield to me;
    he saves those who are upright of heart.
12 God is a just judge,
    a God who expresses his indignation every day.

Footnotes

  1. Psalm 7:10 Minds and hearts: literally, “hearts and kidneys.” These words were used as virtual synonyms (but “heart” most often) to refer to the innermost center of human life. To “search mind and heart” was a conventional expression for God’s examination of a person’s hidden character and motives (see Jer 11:20; 17:10; 20:12).
