1 | (Psalm 26 [A Psalm] of David.)Judge me, O Jehovah, for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in Jehovah without wavering. |
2 | Examine me, O Jehovah, and prove me; Try my heart and my mind. |
3 | For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes; And I have walked in thy truth. |
4 | I have not sat with men of falsehood; Neither will I go in with dissemblers. |
5 | I hate the assembly of evil-doers, And will not sit with the wicked. |
6 | I will wash my hands in innocency: So will I compass thine altar, O Jehovah; |
7 | That I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard, And tell of all thy wondrous works. |
8 | Jehovah, I love the habitation of thy house, And the place where thy glory dwelleth. |
9 | Gather not my soul with sinners, Nor my life with men of blood; |
10 | In whose hands is wickedness, 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 Jehovah. |
