² Examine me, O Jehovah, and prove me; Try my heart and my mind.

⁹ O let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end, but establish thou the righteous: For the righteous God trieth the minds and hearts.

³ Thou hast proved my heart; thou hast visited me in the night; Thou hast tried me, and findest nothing; I am purposed that my mouth shall not transgress.

²³ How many are mine iniquities and sins? Make me to know my transgression and my sin.

⁴ Doth not he see my ways, And number all my steps?

⁵ If I have walked with falsehood, And my foot hath hasted to deceit;

⁶ (Let me be weighed in an even balance, That God may know mine integrity);

¹⁰ For thou, O God, hast proved us: Thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.

²³ Search me, O God, and know my heart: Try me, and know my thoughts;

²⁴ And see if there be any wicked way in me, And lead me in the way everlasting. Psalm 140 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.

¹² But, O Jehovah of hosts, that triest the righteous, that seest the heart and the mind, let me see thy vengeance on them; for unto thee have I revealed my cause.

⁹ And I will bring the third part into the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried. They shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people; and they shall say, Jehovah is my God.
