5I have been a hater of the band of wrongdoers, and I will not be seated among sinners.
6I will make my hands clean from sin; so will I go round your altar, O Lord;
7That I may give out the voice of praise, and make public all the wonders which you have done.
8Lord, your house has been dear to me, and the resting-place of your glory.
9Let not my soul be numbered among sinners, or my life among men of blood;
