| 9Do not destroy me along with sinners, or my life along with men of bloodshed | 9Do not take my soul away along with sinners, Nor my life with men of bloodshed, |
| 10in whose hands are evil schemes and whose right hands are filled with bribes. | 10In whose hands is a wicked scheme, And whose right hand is full of bribes. |
| 11But I live with integrity; redeem me and be gracious to me. | 11But as for me, I shall walk in my integrity; Redeem me, and be gracious to me. |
| 12My foot stands on level ground; I will bless the LORD in the assemblies. | 12My foot stands on a level place; In the congregations I shall bless the LORD. |
