HCSB Parallel NIV [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
Holman Christian Standard BibleNew International Version
1Davidic. Vindicate me, LORD, because I have lived with integrity and have trusted in the LORD without wavering. 1Of David. Vindicate me, LORD, for I have led a blameless life; I have trusted in the LORD and have not faltered.
2Test me, LORD, and try me; examine my heart and mind. 2Test me, LORD, and try me, examine my heart and my mind;
3For Your faithful love is before my eyes, and I live by Your truth. 3for I have always been mindful of your unfailing love and have lived in reliance on your faithfulness.
4I do not sit with the worthless or associate with hypocrites. 4I do not sit with the deceitful, nor do I associate with hypocrites.
5I hate a crowd of evildoers, and I do not sit with the wicked. 5I abhor the assembly of evildoers and refuse to sit with the wicked.
6I wash my hands in innocence and go around Your altar, LORD, 6I wash my hands in innocence, and go about your altar, LORD,
7raising my voice in thanksgiving and telling about Your wonderful works. 7proclaiming aloud your praise and telling of all your wonderful deeds.
8 LORD, I love the house where You dwell, the place where Your glory resides. 8LORD, I love the house where you live, the place where your glory dwells.
9Do not destroy me along with sinners, or my life along with men of bloodshed 9Do not take away my soul along with sinners, my life with those who are bloodthirsty,
10in whose hands are evil schemes and whose right hands are filled with bribes. 10in whose hands are wicked schemes, whose right hands are full of bribes.
11But I live with integrity; redeem me and be gracious to me. 11I lead a blameless life; deliver me and be merciful to me.
12My foot stands on level ground; I will praise the LORD in the assemblies. 12My feet stand on level ground; in the great congregation I will praise the LORD.
