Examine me, and do me prove;
try heart and reins, O God.
For thy love is before mine eyes,Line 3
thy truths paths I have trod
With persons vain I have not sat,Line 4
nor with dissemblers gone.
Th'assembly of ill men I hate:Line 5
to sit with such I shun.
Mine hands in innocence, O Lord,Line 6
I'le wash and purify:
So to thine holy altar go
and compasse it will I.
That I, with voice of thanksgiving,Line 7
may publish and declare,
And tell of all thy mighty works,
that great and wondrous are.
The habitation of thy house,Line 8
Lord, I have loved well,
Yea, in that place I do delight,
where doth thine honour dwell.
With sinners gather not my soul,Line 9
and such as bloud would spill:
Whose hands mischievous plots, right handLine 10
corrupting bribes do fill.
But as for me, I will walk onLine 11

Do thou redeem me, and, O Lord,
be mercifull to me.
My foot upon an even placeLine 12
doth stand with stedfastnesse:

Within the congregations
th'Eternall I will blesse.
