1Of David.
Vindicate me, O LORD!
For I have walked with integrity;
I have trusted in the LORD without wavering.
1Of David. Judge me, O YHWH! For I have walked in my integrity, and I have trusted in YHWH without slipping.
2Test me, O LORD, and try me;
examine my hearta and mind.
2Examine me, O YHWH, and test me; refine my kidneys and my heart.
3For Your loving devotion is before my eyes,
and I have walked in Your truth.
3For Your loving devotion is before my eyes, and I have walked in Your truth.
4I do not sit with deceitful men,
nor keep company with hypocrites.
4I do not sit with men of vanity, and with dissemblers I will not go in.
5I hate the mob of evildoers,
and refuse to sit with the wicked.
5I hate the assembly of evildoers, and with the wicked I do not sit.
6I wash my hands in innocence
that I may go about Your altar, O LORD,
6I wash my hands in innocence, and I go about Your altar, O YHWH,
7to raise my voice in thanksgiving
and declare all Your wonderful works.
7to sound with a voice of thanksgiving, and to recount all Your wonders.
8O LORD, I love the house where You dwell,
the place where Your glory resides.
8O YHWH, I love the habitation of Your house, and the place of the dwelling of Your glory.
9Do not take my soul away with sinners,
or my life with men of bloodshed,
9Do not gather my soul with sinners, and my life with men of blood,
10in whose hands are wicked schemes,
whose right hands are full of bribes.
10in whose hands is a scheme, and whose right hand is filled with a bribe.
11But I will walk with integrity;
redeem me and be merciful to me.
11And I, in my integrity, walk; redeem me and be merciful to me.
12My feet stand on level ground;
in the congregations I will bless the LORD.
12My foot stands on level ground; in the assemblies I will bless YHWH.
