1By David. Judge me, O Lord, for in my innocence I have walked, and in the Lord I have trusted-I shall not falter.
2Try me, O Lord, and test me; refine my mind and heart.
3For Your kindness is before my eyes, and I have walked constantly in Your truth.
4I did not sit with men of falsehood, and with hypocrites I will not mingle.
5I detested the company of evildoers, and with the wicked I will not sit.
6I wash my hands in purity, and circle Your altar, O Lord,
7to give voice to thanks, and to recount all Your wonders.
8I love the shelter of Your House, O Lord, and the place where Your glory resides.
9Gather not in my soul with sinners, nor my life with men of bloodshed,
10In whose hands are schemes, and whose right hand is filled with bribes.
11But I walk in my innocence; redeem me and show me favor.
12My foot stands on level ground; in assemblies I will bless the Lord.
