Examineme, O LORD,and tryme; Testmy mindand my heart.
"Howmanyare my iniquitiesand sins?Makeknownto me my rebellionand my sin.
You have triedmy heart;You have visited[me] by night;You have testedme and You findnothing;I have purposedthat my mouthwill not transgress.
For You have triedus, O God;You have refinedus as silveris refined.
Olet the evilof the wickedcometo an end,but establishthe righteous;For the righteousGodtriesthe heartsand minds.
Yet, O LORDof hosts,You who testthe righteous,Who seethe mindand the heart;Let me seeYour vengeanceon them; For to You I have setforthmy cause.
"And I will bringthe thirdpartthrough the fire,Refinethem as silveris refined,And testthem as goldis tested.They will callon My name,And I will answerthem; I will say,They are My people,'And they will say,'The LORDis my God.'"
