Psalms 26

Psalms · Thomson 1808 · public domain

1JUDGE me, O Lord, for I have walked in mine integrity; and trusting in the Lord I should not be shaken.

2Examine me, O Lord, and prove me: try my reins and my heart.

3Because Thy mercy is before mine eyes; and I have delighted in Thy truth:

4I did not sit with the council of vanity; nor can I go with them who transgress:

5I hated the assembly of evil doers; and with the ungodly I cannot sit.

6I will wash my hands in innocence and go round Thine altar, O Lord:

7that I may hear the voice of praise; and tell all Thy wonderous acts.

8O Lord, I have loved the beauty of Thy house; and the place of the mansion of Thy glory.

9Destroy not my soul with the wicked nor my life with bloodthirsty men;

10in whose hands are iniquities; and whose right hand is full of bribes.

11As for me, I have walked in mine integrity: Redeem me, and be merciful to me.

12My foot hath been steadfast in rectitude: in assemblies I will bless Thee, O Lord.
