1 [The psalm of David.] Lord, deem thou me, for I entered in mine innocence; and I hoping in the Lord, shall not be made unsteadfast. (The song of David. Lord, judge me, for I have gone my way in innocence; and trusting in the Lord, I have not been made unsteady, that is, I have not slipped, or stumbled.)
1 Vindicate me, LORD, for I have led a blameless life; I have trusted in the LORDand have not faltered.
2 Lord, prove thou me, and assay me; burn thou my reins, and mine heart (burn thou my will, and my heart).

3 for I have always been mindful of your unfailing love and have lived in reliance on your faithfulness.
4 I sat not with the counsel of vanity; and I shall not enter with men doing wicked things. (I sat not down with vain, that is, empty, or worthless, people; and I shall not go along with those who do wicked things.)
4 I do not sit with the deceitful, nor do I associate with hypocrites.
5 I hated the church of evil men; and I shall not sit with wicked men. (I hate the company of evil people; and I shall not sit with the wicked.)
5 I abhor the assembly of evildoers and refuse to sit with the wicked.
6 I shall wash mine hands among innocents; and, Lord, I shall compass thine altar. (I shall wash my hands in innocence; and then, Lord, I shall march around thy altar.)
6 I wash my hands in innocence, and go about your altar, LORD,
