1“Of David.” Judge me, O Lord; for I have indeed walked in my integrity: and in the Lord have I trusted; I shall not slip.

2Try me, O Lord, and prove me; purify my reins and my heart.

3For thy kindness is before my eyes; and I have walked in thy truth.

4I have not sat with men of falsehood, and with dissemblers will I not enter [in communion].

5I have hated the assemblage of evil-doers; and with the wicked will I not sit.

6I will wash in innocency my hands, and I will compass thy altar, O Lord:

7That I may publish with a loud voice [my] thanksgiving, and relate all thy wondrous deeds.

8Lord, I love the site of thy house, and the place where thy glory dwelleth.

9Take not away with sinners my soul, nor with men of blood my life;

10In whose hands are wicked devices, and whose right hand is full of bribes.

11But as for me, I will walk in my integrity: redeem me, and be gracious unto me.

12My foot standeth on an even place: in assemblies will I bless the Lord.
