[1] LORD, you be the judge and prove that I have lived a pure life. I have depended on you, LORD, to keep me from falling. [2] Look closely at me, LORD, and test me. Judge my deepest thoughts and emotions. [3] I always remember your faithful love. I depend on your faithfulness. [4] I don't run around with troublemakers. I have nothing to do with hypocrites. [5] I hate being around evil people. I refuse to join those gangs of crooks. [6] LORD, I wash my hands to make myself pure, so that I can come to your altar. [7] I sing a song to give you thanks, and I tell about all the wonderful things you have done. [8] LORD, I love the house where you live, the place where your glory is. [9] Lord, don't treat me like one of those sinners. Don't kill me with those murderers. [10] They are guilty of cheating people. They take bribes to do wrong. [11] But I am innocent, so be kind to me and save me. [12] I am safe from all danger as I stand here praising you, LORD, in the assembly of your people.
