A psalm written by David

1Yahweh, show that I ◄am innocent/have not done what is wrong►.
I always do what is right; I have trusted in you and never doubted that you would help me.

2Yahweh, examine what I have done and test me; thoroughly evaluate what I think [IDM].

3I never forget that you faithfully love me, I conduct my life according to your truth.

4I do not spend my time with liars and I stay away from hypocrites.

5I do not like to be with evil people, and I avoid wicked people.

6Yahweh, I wash my hands to show that I ◄am innocent/have not done what was wrong►.
As I join with others marching around your altar,

7we sing songs to thank you, and we tell others the wonderful things that you have done.

8Yahweh, I love to be in the temple where you live, in the place where your glory appears.

9Do not get rid of me like you get rid of sinners; do not cause me to die like you cause those who murder [MTY] people to die,

10and people who [SYN] are ready to do wicked things and people who are always taking bribes.

11But as for me, I always try to do what is right. So be kind to me and rescue me.

12I stand in places where I am safe, and when all your people gather together, I praise you.
