| 1 A Psalm of David. Vindicate me, O LORD, for I have walked in my integrity, And I have trusted in the LORD without wavering. | 1 Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; therefore I shall not slide. | 1 [By David.] Judge me favorably, O LORD, because I have walked with integrity and I have trusted you without wavering. | 1 Judge me, Yahweh, for I have walked in my integrity. I have trusted also in Yahweh without wavering. | 1 {A Psalm of David.} Judge me, O Jehovah, for I have walked in mine integrity, and I have confided in Jehovah: I shall not slip. | 2 Examine me, O LORD, and try me; Test my mind and my heart. | 2 Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart. | 2 Examine me, O LORD, and test me. Look closely into my heart and mind. | 2 Examine me, Yahweh, and prove me. Try my heart and my mind. | 2 Prove me, Jehovah, and test me; try my reins and my heart: | 3 For Your lovingkindness is before my eyes, And I have walked in Your truth. | 3 For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth. | 3 I see your mercy in front of me. I walk in the light of your truth. | 3 For your loving kindness is before my eyes. I have walked in your truth. | 3 For thy loving-kindness is before mine eyes, and I have walked in thy truth. | 4 I do not sit with deceitful men, Nor will I go with pretenders. | 4 I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers. | 4 I did not sit with liars, and I will not be found among hypocrites. | 4 I have not sat with deceitful men, neither will I go in with hypocrites. | 4 I have not sat with vain persons, neither have I gone in with dissemblers; | 5 I hate the assembly of evildoers, And I will not sit with the wicked. | 5 I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked. | 5 I have hated the mob of evildoers and will not sit with wicked people. | 5 I hate the assembly of evildoers, and will not sit with the wicked. | 5 I have hated the congregation of evil-doers, and I have not sat with the wicked. | NASB | KJV | GWT | WEB | DBY |
| 6 I shall wash my hands in innocence, And I will go about Your altar, O LORD, | 6 I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O LORD: | 6 I will wash my hands in innocence. I will walk around your altar, O LORD, | 6 I will wash my hands in innocence, so I will go about your altar, Yahweh; | 6 I will wash my hands in innocency, and will encompass thine altar, O Jehovah, | 7 That I may proclaim with the voice of thanksgiving And declare all Your wonders. | 7 That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works. | 7 so that I may loudly sing a hymn of thanksgiving and tell about all your miracles. | 7 that I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard, and tell of all your wondrous works. | 7 That I may cause the voice of thanksgiving to be heard, and declare all thy marvellous works. | 8 O LORD, I love the habitation of Your house And the place where Your glory dwells. | 8 LORD, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth. | 8 O LORD, I love the house where you live, the place where your glory dwells. | 8 Yahweh, I love the habitation of your house, the place where your glory dwells. | 8 Jehovah, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thy glory dwelleth. | 9 Do not take my soul away along with sinners, Nor my life with men of bloodshed, | 9 Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men: | 9 Do not sweep away my soul along with hardened sinners or my life along with bloodthirsty people. | 9 Don't gather my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloodthirsty men; | 9 Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with men of blood; | 10 In whose hands is a wicked scheme, And whose right hand is full of bribes. | 10 In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes. | 10 Evil schemes are in their hands. Their right hands are full of bribes. | 10 in whose hands is wickedness, their right hand is full of bribes. | 10 In whose hands are evil devices, and their right hand is full of bribes. | NASB | KJV | GWT | WEB | DBY |
| 11 But as for me, I shall walk in my integrity; Redeem me, and be gracious to me. | 11 But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me. | 11 But I walk with integrity. Rescue me, and have pity on me. | 11 But as for me, I will walk in my integrity. Redeem me, and be merciful to me. | 11 But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity. Redeem me, and be gracious unto me. | 12 My foot stands on a level place; In the congregations I shall bless the LORD. | 12 My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the LORD. | 12 My feet stand on level ground. I will praise the LORD with the choirs in worship. | 12 My foot stands in an even place. In the congregations I will bless Yahweh. By David. | 12 My foot standeth in an even place; in the congregations will I bless Jehovah. |
