A Protestation of Integrity |
|
| 1 |
Judge me, O LORD;
| | |
for I have walked in mine integrity: |
|
I have trusted also in the LORD; |
|
therefore I shall not slide. |
|
|
| 2 |
Examine me, O LORD, and prove me;
| | |
try my reins and my heart. |
|
|
| 3 |
For thy loving-kindness is before mine eyes:
| | |
and I have walked in thy truth. |
|
|
| 4 |
I have not sat with vain persons,
| | |
neither will I go in with dissemblers. |
|
|
| 5 |
I have hated the congregation of evildoers;
| | |
and will not sit with the wicked. |
|
|
| 6 |
I will wash mine hands in innocency:
| | |
so will I compass thine altar, O LORD: |
|
|
| 7 |
that I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving,
| | |
and tell of all thy wondrous works. |
|
|
| 8 |
LORD, I have loved the habitation of thy house,
| | |
and the place where thine honor dwelleth. |
|
|
| 9 |
Gather not my soul with sinners,
| | |
nor my life with bloody men: |
|
|
| 10 |
in whose hands is mischief,
| | |
and their right hand is full of bribes. |
|
|
| 11 |
But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity:
| | |
redeem me, and be merciful unto me. |
|
|
| 12 |
My foot standeth in an even place:
| | |
in the congregations will I bless the LORD. |
|
|
