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.

1 לְדָוִ֨ד׀ שָׁפְטֵ֤נִי יְהוָ֗ה כִּֽי־אֲ֭נִי בְּתֻמִּ֣י³ הָלַ֑כְתִּי וּבַיהוָ֥ה בָּ֝טַ֗חְתִּי לֹ֣א אֶמְעָֽד׃

2 Prove me, Jehovah, and test me; try my reins and my heart:

2 בְּחָנֵ֣נִי יְהוָ֣ה וְנַסֵּ֑נִי צְרֹופָה צָרְפָ֖ה כִלְיֹותַ֣י וְלִבִּֽי׃

3 For thy loving-kindness is before mine eyes, and I have walked in thy truth.

3 כִּֽי־חַ֭סְדְּךָ לְנֶ֣גֶד עֵינָ֑י וְ֝הִתְהַלַּ֗כְתִּי בַּאֲמִתֶּֽךָ׃

4 I have not sat with vain persons, neither have I gone in with dissemblers;

4 לֹא־יָ֭שַׁבְתִּי עִם־מְתֵי־שָׁ֑וְא וְעִ֥ם נַ֝עֲלָמִ֗ים לֹ֣א אָבֹֽוא׃

5 I have hated the congregation of evil-doers, and I have not sat with the wicked.

5 נֵאתִי קְהַ֣ל מְרֵעִ֑ים וְעִם־רְ֝שָׁעִ֗ים לֹ֣א אֵשֵֽׁב׃

6 I will wash my hands in innocency, and will encompass thine altar, O Jehovah,

6 אֶרְחַ֣ץ בְּנִקָּיֹ֣ון כַּפָּ֑י וַאֲסֹבְבָ֖ה אֶת־מִזְבַּחֲךָ֣ יְהוָֽה׃

7 That I may cause the voice of thanksgiving to be heard, and declare all thy marvellous works.

7 לַ֭שְׁמִעַ בְּקֹ֣ול תֹּודָ֑ה וּ֝לְסַפֵּ֗ר כָּל־נִפְלְאֹותֶֽיךָ׃

8 Jehovah, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thy glory dwelleth.

8 יְֽהוָ֗ה אָ֭הַבְתִּי מְעֹ֣ון בֵּיתֶ֑ךָ וּ֝מְקֹ֗ום מִשְׁכַּ֥ן כְּבֹודֶֽךָ׃

9 Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with men of blood;

9 אַל־תֶּאֱסֹ֣ף עִם־חַטָּאִ֣ים נַפְשִׁ֑י וְעִם־אַנְשֵׁ֖י דָמִ֣ים חַיָּֽי׃

10 In whose hands are evil devices, and their right hand is full of bribes.

10 אֲשֶׁר־בִּידֵיהֶ֥ם זִמָּ֑ה וִֽ֝ימִינָ֗ם מָ֣לְאָה שֹּֽׁחַד׃

11 But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity. Redeem me, and be gracious unto me.

11 וַ֭אֲנִי בְּתֻמִּ֥י אֵלֵ֗ךְ פְּדֵ֣נִי וְחָנֵּֽנִי׃

12 My foot standeth in an even place; in the congregations will I bless Jehovah.

12 רַ֭גְלִי עָֽמְדָ֣ה בְמִישֹׁ֑ור בְּ֝מַקְהֵלִ֗ים אֲבָרֵ֥ךְ יְהוָֽה׃
