1Vindicate me, LORD, because I have walked in integrity; I have trusted in the LORD without wavering. | 1Vindicate me, O LORD, for I have walked in my integrity, and I have trusted in the LORD without wavering. |
2Examine me, LORD, and inspect me! Test my heart and mind. | 2Prove me, O LORD, and try me; test my heart and my mind. |
3For your gracious love precedes me, and I continuously walk according to your truth. | 3For your steadfast love is before my eyes, and I walk in your faithfulness. |
4I do not sit with those committed to what is false, nor do I travel with hypocrites. | 4I do not sit with men of falsehood, nor do I consort with hypocrites. |
5I hate the company of those who practice evil, nor do I sit with the wicked. | 5I hate the assembly of evildoers, and I will not sit with the wicked. |
6I wash my hands innocently. I go around your altar, LORD, | 6I wash my hands in innocence and go around your altar, O LORD, |
7so I may praise you loudly with thanksgiving and declare all your wondrous acts. | 7proclaiming thanksgiving aloud, and telling all your wondrous deeds. |
8LORD, I love the dwelling place that is your house, the place where your glory resides. | 8O LORD, I love the habitation of your house and the place where your glory dwells. |
9Do not group me with sinners, nor include me with men who shed blood. | 9Do not sweep my soul away with sinners, nor my life with bloodthirsty men, |
10Their hands are filled with wicked schemes, and their right hands with bribes. | 10in whose hands are evil devices, and whose right hands are full of bribes. |
11But as for me, I walk in my integrity. Redeem me and be gracious to me! | 11But as for me, I shall walk in my integrity; redeem me, and be gracious to me. |
12My feet stand on level ground; among the worshiping congregations I will bless the LORD. | 12My foot stands on level ground; in the great assembly I will bless the LORD. |
