By David.

1 Judge me, Yahweh, for I have walked in my integrity.

I have trusted also in Yahweh without wavering.

2 Examine me, Yahweh, and prove me.

Try my heart and my mind.

3 For your loving kindness is before my eyes.

I have walked in your truth.

4 I have not sat with deceitful men,

neither will I go in with hypocrites.

5 I hate the assembly of evildoers,

and will not sit with the wicked.

6 I will wash my hands in innocence,

so I will go about your altar, Yahweh,

7 that I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard

and tell of all your wondrous deeds.

8 Yahweh, I love the habitation of your house,

the place where your glory dwells.

9 Don’t gather my soul with sinners,

nor my life with bloodthirsty men

10 in whose hands is wickedness;

their right hand is full of bribes.

11 But as for me, I will walk in my integrity.

Redeem me, and be merciful to me.

12 My foot stands in an even place.

In the congregations I will bless Yahweh.

1 [A Psalm] of David. Judge me, O LORD, for I have walked in my integrity; I have trusted also in the LORD; [therefore] I shall not slide.

2 Examine me, O LORD and prove me; melt my kidneys and my heart.

3 For thy mercy [is] before my eyes, and I walk in thy truth.

4 I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with hypocrites.

5 I have hated the congregation of evil doers and will not sit with the wicked.

6 I will wash my hands in innocency, so I will walk near unto thine altar, O LORD:

7 That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving and tell of all thy wondrous works.

8 LORD, I have loved the habitation of thy house and the place of the tabernacle of thy glory.

9 Gather not my soul with the sinners, nor my life with those who have blood [on their hands]:

10 In whose hands [are] wicked devices, and their right hand is full of bribes.

11 But as for me, I will walk in my integrity; ransom me and be merciful unto me.

12 I have walked uprightly; in the congregations I will bless the LORD.:
