O God, you are aware of my foolish sins; my guilt is not hidden from you.
You have scrutinized my inner motives; you have examined me during the night. You have carefully evaluated me, but you find no sin. I am determined I will say nothing sinful.
Who can know all his errors? Please do not punish me for sins I am unaware of.
Do not let those who are my enemies for no reason gloat over me! Do not let those who hate me without cause carry out their wicked schemes!
My wounds are infected and starting to smell, because of my foolish sins.
O Lord, you understand my heart’s desire; my groaning is not hidden from you.
For I see everything they do. Their wicked ways are not hidden from me. Their sin is not hidden away where I cannot see it.
