11 Establish justice for me, LORD, because I have walked with integrity. I've trusted the LORD without wavering.
2Examine me, LORD; put me to the test! Purify my mind and my heart.
3Because your faithful love is right in front of me— I walk in your truth!
4I don't spend time with people up to no good; I don't keep company with liars.
5I detest the company of evildoers, and I don't sit with wicked people.
6I wash my hands—they are innocent! I walk all around your altar, LORD,
7proclaiming out loud my thanks, declaring all your wonderful deeds!
8I love the beauty of your house, LORD; I love the place where your glory resides.
9Don't gather me up with the sinners, taking my life along with violent people
10in whose hands are evil schemes, whose strong hands are full of bribes.
11But me? I walk with integrity. Save me! Have mercy on me!
12My feet now stand on level ground. I will bless the LORD in the great congregation.
