Holy Scripture
Psalms 17:3
A church father on this verse
“Who can with confidence say, "I am pure from sins"? Christ alone is truly and properly able to say these words.… When gold is tested by fire, it remains pure and shining. According to Isaiah, out of all people since the beginning of the age, Christ alone "did not sin, nor was there any deceit found in his mouth."”

1For the end, a Psalm of David the servant of the Lord; the words which he spoke to the Lord, even the words of this Song, in the day in which the Lord delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies, and out of the hand of Saul: and he said:
2I will love thee, O Lord, my strength.
— Psalms 17:3 —
4I will call upon the Lord with praises, And I shall be saved from mine enemies.
5The pangs of death compassed me, And the torrents of ungodliness troubled me exceedingly.
