Lord, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth.

Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men:

10 In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes.

11 But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me.

12 My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the Lord.

Lord, I love(A) the house where you live,
    the place where your glory dwells.(B)
Do not take away my soul along with sinners,
    my life with those who are bloodthirsty,(C)
10 in whose hands are wicked schemes,(D)
    whose right hands are full of bribes.(E)
11 I lead a blameless life;
    deliver me(F) and be merciful to me.

12 My feet stand on level ground;(G)
    in the great congregation(H) I will praise the Lord.
