By David.

• ¹Judge me, Yahweh, for I have walked in my integrity.
• I have trusted also in Yahweh without wavering.

• ²Examine me, Yahweh, and prove me.
• Try my heart and my mind.

• ³For your loving kindness is before my eyes.
• I have walked in your truth.

• ⁴I have not sat with deceitful men,
• neither will I go in with hypocrites.

• ⁵I hate the assembly of evildoers,
• and will not sit with the wicked.

• ⁶I will wash my hands in innocence,
• so I will go about your altar, Yahweh;
• ⁷that I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard,
• and tell of all your wondrous works.

• ⁸Yahweh, I love the habitation of your house,
• the place where your glory dwells.

• ⁹Don’t gather my soul with sinners,
• nor my life with bloodthirsty men;
• ¹⁰in whose hands is wickedness,
• their right hand is full of bribes.

• ¹¹But as for me, I will walk in my integrity.
• Redeem me, and be merciful to me.

• ¹²My foot stands in an even place.
• In the congregations I will bless Yahweh.
