Psalm 26
By David.
[26:1] Judge me, Yahweh, for I have walked in my integrity. I have trusted also in Yahweh without wavering. [26:2] Examine me, Yahweh, and prove me. Try my heart and my mind. [26:3] For your loving kindness is before my eyes. I have walked in your truth. [26:4] I have not sat with deceitful men, neither will I go in with hypocrites. [26:5] I hate the assembly of evil-doers, and will not sit with the wicked. [26:6] I will wash my hands in innocence, so I will go about your altar, Yahweh; [26:7] that I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard, and tell of all your wondrous works. [26:8] Yahweh, I love the habitation of your house, the place where your glory dwells. [26:9] Don't gather my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloodthirsty men; [26:10] in whose hands is wickedness, their right hand is full of bribes. [26:11] But as for me, I will walk in my integrity. Redeem me, and be merciful to me. [26:12] My foot stands in an even place. In the congregations I will bless Yahweh.
