1Judge me, O Jehovah, for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in Jehovah without wavering.

1Judge me, O Lord; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the Lord; therefore I shall not slide.

1The psalm of David before he was anointed. The Lord is my light and my salvation, whom shall I fear? The Lord is the protector of my life: of whom shall I be afraid?

1 Judge me, O Jehovah, for I have walked in mine integrity, and I have confided in Jehovah: I shall not slip.

2Examine me, O Jehovah, and prove me; Try my heart and my mind.

2Examine me, O Lord, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.

2Whilst the wicked draw near against me, to eat my flesh. My enemies that trouble me, have themselves been weakened, and have fallen.

2 Prove me, Jehovah, and test me; try my reins and my heart:

3For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes; And I have walked in thy truth.

3For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth.

3If armies in camp should stand together against me, my heart shall not fear. If a battle should rise up against me, in this will I be confident.

3 For thy loving-kindness is before mine eyes, and I have walked in thy truth.

4I have not sat with men of falsehood; Neither will I go in with dissemblers.

4I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers.

4One thing I have asked of the Lord, this will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life. That I may see the delight of the Lord, and may visit his temple.

4 I have not sat with vain persons, neither have I gone in with dissemblers;

5I hate the assembly of evil-doers, And will not sit with the wicked.

5I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked.

5For he hath hidden me in his tabernacle; in the day of evils, he hath protected me in the secret place of his tabernacle.

5 I have hated the congregation of evil-doers, and I have not sat with the wicked.

6I will wash my hands in innocency: So will I compass thine altar, O Jehovah;

6I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O Lord:

6He hath exalted me upon a rock: and now he hath lifted up my head above my enemies. I have gone round, and have offered up in his tabernacle a sacrifice of jubilation: I will sing, and recite a psalm to the Lord.

6 I will wash my hands in innocency, and will encompass thine altar, O Jehovah,

7That I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard, And tell of all thy wondrous works.

7That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works.

7Hear, O Lord, my voice, with which I have cried to thee: have mercy on me and hear me.

7 That I may cause the voice of thanksgiving to be heard, and declare all thy marvellous works.

8Jehovah, I love the habitation of thy house, And the place where thy glory dwelleth.

8Lord, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth.

8My heart hath said to thee: My face hath sought thee: thy face, O Lord, will I still seek.

8 Jehovah, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thy glory dwelleth.

9Gather not my soul with sinners, Nor my life with men of blood;

9Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men:

9Turn not away thy face from me; decline not in thy wrath from thy servant. Be thou my helper, forsake me not; do not thou despise me, O God my Saviour.

9 Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with men of blood;

10In whose hands is wickedness, And their right hand is full of bribes.

10In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes.

10For my father and my mother have left me: but the Lord hath taken me up.

10 In whose hands are evil devices, and their right hand is full of bribes.

11But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: Redeem me, and be merciful unto me.

11But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me.

11Set me, O Lord, a law in thy way, and guide me in the right path, because of my enemies.

11 But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity. Redeem me, and be gracious unto me.

12My foot standeth in an even place: In the congregations will I bless Jehovah.

12My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the Lord.

12Deliver me not over to the will of them that trouble me; for unjust witnesses have risen up against me; and iniquity hath lied to itself.

12 My foot standeth in an even place; in the congregations will I bless Jehovah.
