A Psalm of David. 1 Judge me, oh, Jehovah, for I have walked in my integrity: I have trusted also in Jehovah; therefore I shall not slide.
2 Examine me, oh, Jehovah, and test me; refine my conscience and my mind.
3 For Your loving kindness is before my eyes: and I have walked in Your truth.
4 I have not made my dwelling with empty persons, neither will I go in with hypocrites.
5 I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked.
6 I will wash my hands in innocence so I will walk around Your altar, oh, Jehovah,
7 that I may proclaim, with my voice, thanksgiving and tell of all Your wondrous works.
8 Jehovah, I have loved the habitation of Your house and the place where Your honor dwells.
9 Do not remove my life with sinners nor my life with bloody men:
10 in whose hands is mischief and whose right hand is full of bribes.
11 but as for me, I will walk in my integrity: Redeem me, and be merciful to me.
12 My foot stands in a level place: in the assembly, I will bless Jehovah.




King James Version (KJV)
1 [A Psalm] of David. Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; [therefore] I shall not slide.
2 Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.
3 For thy lovingkindness [is] before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth.
4 I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers.
5 I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked.
6 I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O LORD:
7 That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works.
8 LORD, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth.
9 Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men:
10 In whose hands [is] mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes.
11 But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me.
12 My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the LORD.


Young's Literal Translation (YLT)
1 By David. Judge me, O Jehovah, for I in mine integrity have walked, And in Jehovah I have trusted, I slide not.
2 Try me, O Jehovah, and prove me, Purified [are] my reins and my heart.
3 For Thy kindness [is] before mine eyes, And I have walked habitually in Thy truth.
4 I have not sat with vain men, And with dissemblers I enter not.
5 I have hated the assembly of evil doers, And with the wicked I sit not.
6 I wash in innocency my hands, And I compass Thine altar, O Jehovah.
7 To sound with a voice of confession, And to recount all Thy wonders.
8 Jehovah, I have loved the habitation of Thy house, And the place of the tabernacle of Thine honour.
9 Do not gather with sinners my soul, And with men of blood my life,
10 In whose hand [is] a wicked device, And their right hand [is] full of bribes.
11 And I, in mine integrity I walk, Redeem me, and favour me.
12 My foot hath stood in uprightness, In assemblies I bless Jehovah!
