Vindicate me, O Lord
							
																								
								1
								
									BY DAVID. Judge me, O YHWH, for I have walked in my integrity, || And I have trusted in YHWH, || I do not slide.
								
							 
																								
								2
								
									Try me, O YHWH, and prove me, || My reins and my heart [are] purified,
								
							 
																								
								3
								
									For Your kindness [is] before my eyes, || And I have habitually walked in Your truth.
								
							 
																								
								4
								
									I have not sat with vain men, || And I do not enter with pretenders.
								
							 
																								
								5
								
									I have hated the assembly of evildoers, || And I do not sit with the wicked.
								
							 
																								
								6
								
									I wash my hands in innocence, || And I go around Your altar, O YHWH.
								
							 
																								
								7
								
									To sound with a voice of confession, || And to recount all Your wonders.
								
							 
																								
								8
								
									YHWH, I have loved the habitation of Your house, || And the place of the Dwelling Place of Your glory.
								
							 
																								
								9
								
									Do not gather my soul with sinners, || And my life with men of blood,
								
							 
																								
								10
								
									In whose hand [is] a wicked scheme, || And their right hand [is] full of bribes.
								
							 
																								
								11
								
									And I walk in my integrity, || Redeem me, and favor me.
								
							 
																								
								12
								
									My foot has stood in uprightness, || In assemblies I bless YHWH!
