Vindicate Me, O Lord
1{A Psalm of David.} Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; therefore I shall not slide.
2Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.
3For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth.
4I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers.
5I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked.
6I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O LORD:
7That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works.
8LORD, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth.
9Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men:
10In whose hands is mischief, 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.
12My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the LORD.

Vindicate Me, O LORD
Of David.
1Vindicate me, O LORD!
For I have walked with integrity;
I have trusted in the LORD without wavering.
2 Test me, O LORD, and try me;
examine my heart a and mind.
3 For Your loving devotion is before my eyes,
and I have walked in Your truth.
4 I do not sit with deceitful men,
nor keep company with hypocrites.
5 I hate the mob of evildoers,
and refuse to sit with the wicked.
6 I wash my hands in innocence
that I may go about Your altar, O LORD,
7 to raise my voice in thanksgiving
and declare all Your wonderful works.
8 O LORD, I love the house where You dwell,
the place where Your glory resides.
9 Do not take my soul away with sinners,
or my life with men of bloodshed,
10 in whose hands are wicked schemes,
whose right hands are full of bribes.
11 But I will walk with integrity;
redeem me and be merciful to me.
12 My feet stand on level ground;
in the congregations I will bless the LORD.

Vindicate Me, O Lord
1By David. Judge me, O Jehovah, for I in mine integrity have walked, And in Jehovah I have trusted, I slide not.
2Try me, O Jehovah, and prove me, Purified are my reins and my heart.
3For Thy kindness is before mine eyes, And I have walked habitually in Thy truth.
4I have not sat with vain men, And with dissemblers I enter not.
5I have hated the assembly of evil doers, And with the wicked I sit not.
6I wash in innocency my hands, And I compass Thine altar, O Jehovah.
7To sound with a voice of confession, And to recount all Thy wonders.
8Jehovah, I have loved the habitation of Thy house, And the place of the tabernacle of Thine honour.
9Do not gather with sinners my soul, And with men of blood my life,
10In whose hand is a wicked device, And their right hand is full of bribes.
11And I, in mine integrity I walk, Redeem me, and favour me.
12My foot hath stood in uprightness, In assemblies I bless Jehovah!
