Oh let the wickedness of sinners come to an end; and [then] You shall direct the righteous, O God that searches the hearts and minds.

You has tested my heart; You have visited [me] in the night; You have tried me as with fire, and unrighteousness has not been found in me; [I am purposed] that my mouth shall not speak [amiss.]

For You, O God, have proved us; You have tried us with fire as silver is tried.

Prove me, O God, and know my heart; examine me, and know my paths;

and see if [there is any] way of iniquity in me, and lead me in an everlasting way.

How many are my sins and my transgressions? Teach me what they are.

Will He not see my way, and number all my steps?

(for I am weighed in a just balance, and the Lord knows my innocence:)

O Lord, [You] who tests the righteous, [and] who understands the mind and heart, let me see Your vengeance upon them: for to You I have revealed my cause.

And I will bring the third [part] through the fire, and I will try them as silver is tried, and I will prove them as gold is proved: they shall call upon My name, and I will hear them, and say, This is My people: and they shall say, The Lord is my God.
