By Dawud.
1Judge me, Allah, for I have walked in my integrity.
I have trusted also in Allah without wavering.
2Examine me, Allah, and prove me.
Try my heart and my mind.
3For your loving kindness is before my eyes.
I have walked in your truth.
4I have not sat with deceitful men,
Neither will I go in with hypocrites.
5I hate the assembly of evil-doers,
And will not sit with the wicked.
6I will wash my hands in innocence,
So I will go about your altar, Allah;
7That I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard,
And tell of all your wondrous works.
8Allah, I love your dwelling place,
The place where your glory makes its home.
9Do not gather my soul with sinners,
Nor my life with bloodthirsty men;
10In whose hands is wickedness,
Their right hand is full of bribes.
11But as for me, I will walk in my integrity.
Redeem me, and be merciful to me.
12My foot stands in an even place.
In the congregations I will bless Allah.
