4I have not sat with the council of vanity, and will in nowise enter in with transgressors.
5I have hated the assembly of wicked doers; and will not sit with ungodly men.
6I will wash my hands in innocency, and compass your altar, O Lord:
7to hear the voice of praise, and to declare all your wonderful works.
8O Lord, I have loved the beauty of your house, and the place of the tabernacle of your glory.
9Destroy not my soul together with the ungodly, nor my life with bloody men:
10in whose hands are iniquities, and their right hand is filled with bribes.
11But I have walked in my innocence: redeem me, and have mercy upon me.
12My foot stands in an even place: in the congregations will I bless you, O Lord.
