Psalm 26

JPS Tanakh 1917 · 12 verses

26A Psalm of David. Judge me, O Lord, for I have walked in mine integrity, and I have trusted in the Lord without wavering.

2Examine me, O Lord, and try me; test my reins and my heart.

3For Thy mercy is before mine eyes; and I have walked in Thy truth.

4I have not sat with men of falsehood; neither will I go in with dissemblers.

5I hate the gathering of evil doers, and will not sit with the wicked.

6I will wash my hands in innocency; so will I compass Thine altar, O Lord,

7That I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard, and tell of all Thy wondrous works.

8Lord, I love the habitation of Thy house, and the place where Thy glory dwelleth.

9Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with men of blood;

10In whose hands is craftiness, and their right hand is full of bribes.

11But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity; redeem me, and be gracious unto me.

12My foot standeth in an even place; in the congregations will I bless the Lord.
