Verse BSB Berean Standard Bible KJV King James Version
Of David. Vindicate me, O LORD ! For I have walked with integrity ; I have trusted in the LORD without wavering .
Judge me, O LORD ; for I have walked in mine integrity : I have trusted also in the LORD ; therefore I shall not slide .
Test me, O LORD, and try me; examine my heart and mind .
Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart .
For Your loving devotion is before my eyes , and I have walked in Your truth.
For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes : and I have walked in thy truth.
I do not sit with deceitful men , nor keep company with hypocrites .
I have not sat with vain persons , neither will I go in with dissemblers .
I hate the mob of evildoers, and refuse to sit with the wicked.
I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked.
I wash my hands in innocence that I may go about Your altar, O LORD ,
I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O LORD :
to raise my voice in thanksgiving and declare all Your wonderful works.
That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving , and tell of all thy wondrous works.
O LORD, I love the house where You dwell , the place where Your glory resides .
LORD, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth .
Do not take my soul away with sinners, or my life with men of bloodshed,
Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men :
in whose hands are wicked schemes , whose right hands are full of bribes.
In whose hands is mischief , and their right hand is full of bribes.
But I will walk with integrity ; redeem me and be merciful to me.
But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity : redeem me , and be merciful unto me.
My feet stand on level ground; in the congregations I will bless the LORD.
My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the LORD.
