3. For thy love is before mine eyes,thy truth's paths I have trode.
4. With persons vain I have not sat,nor with dissemblers gone:
5. Th' assembly of ill men I hate;to sit with such I shun.
6. Mine hands in innocence, O Lord,I'll wash and purify;So to thine holy altar go,and compass it will I:
7. That I, with voice of thanksgiving,may publish and declare,And tell of all thy mighty works,that great and wondrous are.
8. The habitation of thy house,Lord, I have loved well;Yea, in that place I do delightwhere doth thine honour dwell.
9. With sinners gather not my soul,and such as blood would spill:
10. Whose hands mischievous plots, right handcorrupting bribes do fill.
11. But as for me, I will walk onin mine integrity:Do thou redeem me, and, O Lord,be merciful to me.
