1 Judge me, O Lord; for I have walked in my innocence: and hoping in the Lord I shall not be moved.

3 For thy mercy is before mine eyes: and I am well pleased with thy truth.

6 I wash my hands in innocence, and go about your altar, LORD,

7 to hear the voice of praise, and to declare all thy wonderful works.

8 O Lord, I have loved the beauty of thy house, and the place of the tabernacle of thy glory.

8 LORD, I love the house where you live, the place where your glory dwells.

9 Destroy not my soul together with the ungodly, nor my life with bloody men:

9 Do not take away my soul along with sinners, my life with those who are bloodthirsty,

10 in whose hands are iniquities, and their right hand is filled with bribes.

10 in whose hands are wicked schemes, whose right hands are full of bribes.

11 But I have walked in my innocence: redeem me, and have mercy upon me.

11 I lead a blameless life; deliver me and be merciful to me.

12 My foot stands in an even place: in the congregations will I bless thee, O Lord.

12 My feet stand on level ground; in the great congregation I will praise the LORD.
