| Chapter 26 |
1 | [A Psalm] of David. Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; [therefore] I shall not slide.
|
2 | Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.
|
3 | For thy lovingkindness [is] before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth.
|
4 | I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers.
|
5 | I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked.
|
6 | I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O LORD:
|
7 | That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works.
|
8 | LORD, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth.
|
9 | Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men:
|
10 | In whose hands [is] mischief, 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 the LORD.
