Psalms 26

PSAL. XXVI.

A Psalm of David.

1Judge me, O Yhwh; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in Yhwh; therefore I shall not slide. 2Examine me, O Yhwh, and prove me; try my reins and my heart. 3For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth. 4I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers. 5I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked. 6I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O Yhwh: 7That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works. 8Yhwh, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth.
 where…: Heb. of the tabernacle of thy honour.
9Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men:
 Gather…: or, Take not away.
,
 bloody…: Heb. men of blood.
10In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes.
 full…: Heb. filled with.
11But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me. 12My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless Yhwh.
