I cried out to him with my mouth,

He has not turned away my prayer

or turned his faithful love from me.

NLTNew Living Translation

Come and listen, all you who fear God,

and I will tell you what he did for me.

For I cried out to him for help,

praising him as I spoke.

If I had not confessed the sin in my heart,

the Lord would not have listened.

But God did listen!

Praise God, who did not ignore my prayer

or withdraw his unfailing love from me.

what he has done for me.

I called to him with my mouth,

and he was extolled with my tongue.

If I had considered evil in my heart,

the Lord would not have listened.

However, God has listened;

he has attended to the sound of my prayer.

Blessed be God,

who has not turned aside my prayer,

or his loyal love from me.

KJV 1900King James Version

Come and hear, all ye that fear God,

And I will declare what he hath done for my soul.

I cried unto him with my mouth,

And he was extolled with my tongue.

If I regard iniquity in my heart,

The Lord will not hear me:

But verily God hath heard me;

He hath attended to the voice of my prayer.

Blessed be God, which hath not turned away my prayer,

Nor his mercy from me.
