1Vindicate me, O LORD, for I have walked in my integrity, and I have trusted in the LORD without wavering.1Davidic. Vindicate me, LORD, because I have lived with integrity and have trusted in the LORD without wavering.

3For your steadfast love is before my eyes, and I walk in your faithfulness.3For Your faithful love is before my eyes, and I live by Your truth.
4I do not sit with men of falsehood, nor do I consort with hypocrites.4I do not sit with the worthless or associate with hypocrites.
5I hate the assembly of evildoers, and I will not sit with the wicked.5I hate a crowd of evildoers, and I do not sit with the wicked.
6I wash my hands in innocence and go around your altar, O LORD,6I wash my hands in innocence and go around Your altar, LORD,
7proclaiming thanksgiving aloud, and telling all your wondrous deeds.7raising my voice in thanksgiving and telling about Your wonderful works.
8O LORD, I love the habitation of your house and the place where your glory dwells.8 LORD, I love the house where You dwell, the place where Your glory resides.
9Do not sweep my soul away with sinners, nor my life with bloodthirsty men,9Do not destroy me along with sinners, or my life along with men of bloodshed
10in whose hands are evil devices, and whose right hands are full of bribes.10in whose hands are evil schemes and whose right hands are filled with bribes.
11But as for me, I shall walk in my integrity; redeem me, and be gracious to me.11But I live with integrity; redeem me and be gracious to me.
12My foot stands on level ground; in the great assembly I will bless the LORD.12My foot stands on level ground; I will praise the LORD in the assemblies.
