² Try me, O Jehovah, and prove me, Purified `are' my reins and my heart.

⁹ Let, I pray Thee be ended the evil of the wicked, And establish Thou the righteous, And a trier of hearts and reins is the righteous God.

³ Thou hast proved my heart, Thou hast inspected by night, Thou hast tried me, Thou findest nothing; My thoughts pass not over my mouth.

²³ How many iniquities and sins have I? My transgression and my sin let me know.

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

⁵ If I have walked with vanity, And my foot doth hasten to deceit,

⁶ He doth weigh me in righteous balances, And God doth know my integrity.

¹⁰ For Thou hast tried us, O God, Thou hast refined us as the refining of silver.

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

²⁴ And see if a grievous way be in me, And lead me in a way age-during!

¹² And, O Jehovah of Hosts, trier of the righteous, Beholder of reins and heart, I do see Thy vengeance out of them, For unto Thee I have revealed my cause.

⁹ And I have brought the third into fire, And refined them like a refining of silver, And have tried them like a trying of gold, It doth call in My name, and I answer it, I have said, `My people it `is',' And it saith, `Jehovah `is' my God!'
