- 1
- {[A Psalm] of David.}
Judge me, O Jehovah, for I have walked in mine integrity, and I have confided in Jehovah: I shall not slip.
- 2
- Prove me, Jehovah, and test me;
try my reins and my heart:
- 3
- For thy loving-kindness is before mine eyes, and I have walked in thy truth.
- 4
- I have not sat with vain persons, neither have I gone in with dissemblers;
- 5
- I have hated the congregation of evil-doers, and I have not sat with the wicked.
- 6
- I will wash my hands in innocency, and will encompass thine altar, O Jehovah,
- 7
- That I may cause the voice of thanksgiving to be heard, and declare all thy marvellous works.
- 8
- Jehovah, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thy glory dwelleth.
- 9
- Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with men of blood;
- 10
- In whose hands are evil devices, and their right hand is full of bribes.
- 11
- But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity.
Redeem me, and be gracious unto me.
- 12
- My foot standeth in an even place;
in the congregations will I bless Jehovah.
