4 I do not sit with those committed to what is false, nor do I travel with 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 hate the company of those who practice evil, nor do I sit with the wicked. 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 wash my hands innocently. I go around your altar, 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,

8 LORD, I love the dwelling place that is your house, the place where your glory resides. 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 group me with sinners, nor include me with men who shed blood. 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 Their hands are filled with wicked schemes, and their right hands with 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 as for me, I walk in my integrity. Redeem me and be gracious to 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; among the worshiping congregations I will bless the LORD. 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.
