1 A Psalm of David. Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in my integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; therefore I shall not slide.
2 Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my heart and my mind.
3 For your lovingkindness is before my eyes: and I have walked in your truth.
4 I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with hypocrites.
5 I have hated the congregation of evildoers; and will not sit with the wicked.
6 I will wash my hands in innocence: so will I go about your altar, O LORD:
7 That I may proclaim with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all your wondrous works.
8 LORD, I have loved the habitation of your house, and the place where your honor dwells.
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 my integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me.
12 My foot stands in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the LORD.
