English text

I will wash my hands in innocency, O Lord,
and so will I go to Thine altar;
That I may shew the voice of thanksgiving,
and tell of all Thy wondrous works.
Lord, I have loved the habitation of Thy house,
and the place where Thine honour dwelleth.
My foot standeth right;
I will praise the Lord in the congregations.
