1 Of David. Vindicate me, Adonai, for I have walked in my integrity, and trusted in Adonai without wavering.
2 Probe me, Adonai, and test me, refine my mind and my heart.
3 For Your love is before my eyes and I have walked in Your truth.
4 I have not sat with men of falsehood, nor do I consort with hypocrites.
5 I detest the company of evildoers, and do not sit with the wicked.
6 I will wash my hands in innocence, so I can walk around Your altar, Adonai,
7 hearing the voice of thanksgiving while proclaiming all Your wonders.
8 Adonai, I love the House where You live, the place where Your glory dwells.
9 Do not take my soul away with sinners, nor my life with people of bloodshed—
10 in whose hands are wicked schemes, whose right hand is full of bribes.
11 But I—I will walk in my integrity. Redeem me and be gracious to me.
12 My feet stand on level ground. In congregations I will bless Adonai.
