Psalm 26
By David. Judge me, Yahweh, for I have walked in my integrity. I have trusted also in Yahweh without wavering. Examine me, Yahweh, and prove me. Try my heart and my mind. For your lovingkindness is before my eyes. I have walked in your truth. I have not sat with deceitful men, Neither will I go in with hypocrites. I hate the assembly of evil-doers, And will not sit with the wicked. I will wash my hands in innocence, So I will go about your altar, Yahweh; That I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard, And tell of all your wondrous works. Yahweh, I love the habitation of your house, The place where your glory dwells. Don't gather my soul with sinners, Nor my life with bloodthirsty men; 10 In whose hands is wickedness, Their right hand is full of bribes. 11 But as for me, I will walk in my integrity. Redeem me, and be merciful to me. 12 My foot stands in an even place. In the congregations will I bless Yahweh.
