NASB Parallel NLT [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
New American Standard Bible 1995New Living Translation
1A Psalm of David. Vindicate me, O LORD, for I have walked in my integrity, And I have trusted in the LORD without wavering.1Declare me innocent, O LORD, for I have acted with integrity; I have trusted in the LORD without wavering.
2Examine me, O LORD, and try me; Test my mind and my heart.2Put me on trial, LORD, and cross-examine me. Test my motives and my heart.
3For Your lovingkindness is before my eyes, And I have walked in Your truth.3For I am always aware of your unfailing love, and I have lived according to your truth.
4I do not sit with deceitful men, Nor will I go with pretenders.4I do not spend time with liars or go along with hypocrites.
5I hate the assembly of evildoers, And I will not sit with the wicked.5I hate the gatherings of those who do evil, and I refuse to join in with the wicked.
6I shall wash my hands in innocence, And I will go about Your altar, O LORD,6I wash my hands to declare my innocence. I come to your altar, O LORD,
7That I may proclaim with the voice of thanksgiving And declare all Your wonders.7singing a song of thanksgiving and telling of all your wonders.
8O LORD, I love the habitation of Your house And the place where Your glory dwells.8I love your sanctuary, LORD, the place where your glorious presence dwells.
9Do not take my soul away along with sinners, Nor my life with men of bloodshed,9Don’t let me suffer the fate of sinners. Don’t condemn me along with murderers.
10In whose hands is a wicked scheme, And whose right hand is full of bribes.10Their hands are dirty with evil schemes, and they constantly take bribes.
11But as for me, I shall walk in my integrity; Redeem me, and be gracious to me.11But I am not like that; I live with integrity. So redeem me and show me mercy.
12My foot stands on a level place; In the congregations I shall bless the LORD.12Now I stand on solid ground, and I will publicly praise the LORD.
