⁴ I do not sit with the worthless,
    nor do I consort with hypocrites;^(D)
5 I hate the company of evildoers
    and will not sit with the wicked.^(E)

⁶ I wash my hands in innocence
    and go around your altar, O Lord,^(F)
7 singing aloud a song of thanksgiving
    and telling all your wondrous deeds.^(G)

⁸ O Lord, I love the house in which you dwell
    and the place where your glory abides.^(H)
9 Do not sweep me away with sinners
    nor my life with the bloodthirsty,^(I)
10 those in whose hands are evil devices
    and whose right hands are full of bribes.^(J)

¹¹ But as for me, I walk in my integrity;
    redeem me and be gracious to me.^(K)
12 My foot stands on level ground;
    in the great congregation I will bless the Lord.^(L)
