4 Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness!
You have relieved me in my distress;
^[b]Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer.

² Give heed to the voice of my cry,
My King and my God,
For to You I will pray.

⁹ The Lord has heard my supplication;
The Lord will receive my prayer.

17 Hear a just cause, O Lord,
Attend to my cry;
Give ear to my prayer which is not from deceitful lips.
