| 1 {[A Psalm] of David.} Judge me, O Jehovah, for I have walked in mine integrity, and I have confided in Jehovah: I shall not slip. | 1 Vindicate me, O LORD, for I have led a blameless life; I have trusted in the LORD without wavering. |
| 2 Prove me, Jehovah, and test me; try my reins and my heart: | 2 Test me, O LORD, and try me, examine my heart and my mind; |
| 3 For thy loving-kindness is before mine eyes, and I have walked in thy truth. | 3 for your love is ever before me, and I walk continually in your truth. |
| 4 I have not sat with vain persons, neither have I gone in with dissemblers; | 4 I do not sit with deceitful men, nor do I consort with hypocrites; |
| 5 I have hated the congregation of evil-doers, and I have not sat with the wicked. | 5 I abhor the assembly of evildoers and refuse to sit with the wicked. |
| 6 I will wash my hands in innocency, and will encompass thine altar, O Jehovah, | 6 I wash my hands in innocence, and go about your altar, O LORD, |
