Of Dawiḏ.
1 Rule me rightly, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄,
For I have walked in my integrity.
And I have trusted in 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, without wavering.
2 Examine me, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, and prove me;
Try my kidneys and my heart.
3 For Your kindness is before my eyes,
And I have walked in Your truth.
4 I have not sat with men of falsehood,
Nor do I enter with pretenders.
5 I have hated the assembly of evil-doers,
And I do not sit with the wicked.
6 I wash my hands in innocence;
And I walk around Your altar, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄,
7 To raise a voice of thanksgiving,
And to declare all Your wonders.
8 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, I have loved the abode of Your House,
And the place where Your esteem dwells.
9 Do not gather my being together with sinners,
Nor my life with bloodthirsty men,
10 In whose hands is a plot,
And their right hand is filled with bribes.
11 But as for me, I walk in my integrity;
Redeem me and show me favour.
12 My foot shall stand on a level place;
In the assemblies I baraḵ 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄.
