Verse 1
Judge me, 1 O LORD; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; therefore I shall not slide.

Verse 2
Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my 1 reins and my heart.
My very affections and inward motions of the heart.
Verse 3
For thy 1 lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth.
He shows what stayed him, that he did not recompense evil for evil.
Verse 4
I have not 1 sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers.

Verse 6
I will 1 wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O LORD:
I will serve you with a pure affection, and with the godly that sacrifice to you.
Verse 9
1 Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men:
Destroy me not in the overthrow of the wicked.
Verse 10
In whose hands is 1 mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes.
Whose cruel hands execute the malicious devises of their hearts.
Verse 12
My foot standeth in 1 an even place: in the congregations will I bless the LORD.
I am preserved from my enemies by the power of God, and therefore will praise him openly.
