1 [By David.] Judge me favorably, O LORD, because I have walked with integrity and I have trusted you without wavering. Vindicate me, O LORD, for I have walked in my integrity, and I have trusted in the LORD without wavering. Of David. Vindicate me, LORD, for I have led a blameless life; I have trusted in the LORD and have not faltered.
2 Examine me, O LORD, and test me. Look closely into my heart and mind. Prove me, O LORD, and try me; test my heart and my mind. Test me, LORD, and try me, examine my heart and my mind;
3 I see your mercy in front of me. I walk in the light of your truth. For your steadfast love is before my eyes, and I walk in your faithfulness. for I have always been mindful of your unfailing love and have lived in reliance on your faithfulness.
4 I did not sit with liars, and I will not be found among hypocrites. I do not sit with men of falsehood, nor do I consort with hypocrites. I do not sit with the deceitful, nor do I associate with hypocrites.
5 I have hated the mob of evildoers and will not sit with wicked people. I hate the assembly of evildoers, and I will not sit with the wicked. I abhor the assembly of evildoers and refuse to sit with the wicked.
6 I will wash my hands in innocence. I will walk around your altar, O LORD, I wash my hands in innocence and go around your altar, O LORD, I wash my hands in innocence, and go about your altar, LORD,
7 so that I may loudly sing a hymn of thanksgiving and tell about all your miracles. proclaiming thanksgiving aloud, and telling all your wondrous deeds. proclaiming aloud your praise and telling of all your wonderful deeds.
8 O LORD, I love the house where you live, the place where your glory dwells. O LORD, I love the habitation of your house and the place where your glory dwells. LORD, I love the house where you live, the place where your glory dwells.
9 Do not sweep away my soul along with hardened sinners or my life along with bloodthirsty people. Do not sweep my soul away with sinners, nor my life with bloodthirsty men, Do not take away my soul along with sinners, my life with those who are bloodthirsty,
10 Evil schemes are in their hands. Their right hands are full of bribes. in whose hands are evil devices, and whose right hands are full of bribes. in whose hands are wicked schemes, whose right hands are full of bribes.
11 But I walk with integrity. Rescue me, and have pity on me. But as for me, I shall walk in my integrity; redeem me, and be gracious to me. I lead a blameless life; deliver me and be merciful to me.
12 My feet stand on level ground. I will praise the LORD with the choirs in worship. My foot stands on level ground; in the great assembly I will bless the LORD. My feet stand on level ground; in the great congregation I will praise the LORD.
