New King James VersionNew International Version
1[i]A Psalm[/i] of David. Vindicate me, O LORD, For I have walked in my integrity. I have also trusted in the LORD; I shall not slip.1Of David. Vindicate me, LORD, for I have led a blameless life; I have trusted in the LORD and have not faltered.
2Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; Try my mind and my heart.2Test me, LORD, and try me, examine my heart and my mind;
3For Your lovingkindness is before my eyes, And I have walked in Your truth.3for I have always been mindful of your unfailing love and have lived in reliance on your faithfulness.
4I have not sat with idolatrous mortals, Nor will I go in with hypocrites.4I do not sit with the deceitful, nor do I associate with hypocrites.
5I have hated the assembly of evildoers, And will not sit with the wicked.5I abhor the assembly of evildoers and refuse to sit with the wicked.
6I will wash my hands in innocence; So I will go about Your altar, O LORD,6I wash my hands in innocence, and go about your altar, LORD,
7That I may proclaim with the voice of thanksgiving, And tell of all Your wondrous works.7proclaiming aloud your praise and telling of all your wonderful deeds.
8LORD, I have loved the habitation of Your house, And the place where Your glory dwells.8LORD, I love the house where you live, the place where your glory dwells.
9Do not gather my soul with sinners, Nor my life with bloodthirsty men,9Do not take away my soul along with sinners, my life with those who are bloodthirsty,
10In whose hands is a sinister scheme, And whose right hand is full of bribes.10in whose hands are wicked schemes, whose right hands are full of bribes.
11But as for me, I will walk in my integrity; Redeem me and be merciful to me.11I lead a blameless life; deliver me and be merciful to me.
12My foot stands in an even place; In the congregations I will bless the LORD.12My feet stand on level ground; in the great congregation I will praise the LORD.
