Test me, Lord, and try me; examine my heart and mind.
How many iniquities and sins have I committed? Reveal to me my transgression and sin.
You have tested my heart; You have examined me at night. You have tried me and found nothing evil; I have determined that my mouth will not sin.
For You, God, tested us; You refined us as silver is refined.
Let the evil of the wicked come to an end, but establish the righteous. The One who examines the thoughts and emotions is a righteous God.
Lord of Hosts, testing the righteous and seeing the heart and mind, let me see Your vengeance on them, for I have presented my case to You.
I will put this third through the fire; I will refine them as silver is refined and test them as gold is tested. They will call on My name, and I will answer them. I will say: They are My people, and they will say: Yahweh is our God.”
