and I have lived according to your truth.

and I have trusted Yahweh and not wavered.

Prove me, O Yahweh, and test me.

Because your loyal love is before my eyes,

and I walk about in your faithfulness.

KJV 1900King James Version

Judge me, O Lord; for I have walked in mine integrity:

I have trusted also in the Lord; therefore I shall not slide.

Examine me, O Lord, and prove me;

Try my reins and my heart.

For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes:

And I have walked in thy truth.
