¹ of David. VINDICATE ME, O Lord, for I have walked in my integrity; I have trusted in, leaned on, and relied on the Lord without wavering and I shall not slide. ² Examine me, O Lord, and prove me; test my heart and my mind. ³ For Your loving-kindness is before my eyes, and I have walked in Your truth . ⁴ I do not sit with false persons, nor fellowship with pretenders; ⁵ I hate the company of evildoers and will not sit with the wicked. ⁶ I will wash my hands in innocence, and go about Your altar, O Lord, ⁷ That I may make the voice of thanksgiving heard and may tell of all Your wondrous works. ⁸ Lord, I love the habitation of Your house, and the place where Your glory dwells. ⁹ Gather me not with sinners and sweep me not away , nor my life with bloodthirsty men, ¹⁰ In whose hands is wickedness, and their right hands are full of bribes. ¹¹ But as for me, I will walk in my integrity; redeem me and be merciful and gracious to me. ¹² My foot stands on an even place; in the congregations will I bless the Lord.
