Psalms 26

Psalm 26

Protestation of Integrity and Prayer for Protection.

¹Vindicate me, Lord, for I have walked in my integrity, And I have trusted in the Lord without wavering.

²Examine me, Lord, and put me to the test; Refine my mind and my heart.

³For Your goodness is before my eyes, And I have walked in Your truth.

⁴I do not sit with deceitful people, Nor will I go with pretenders.

⁵I hate the assembly of evildoers, And I will not sit with the wicked.

⁶I will wash my hands in innocence, And I will go around Your altar, Lord,

⁷That I may proclaim with the voice of thanksgiving And declare all Your wonders.

⁸¶Lord, I love the dwelling of Your house, And the place where Your glory remains.

⁹Do not take my soul away along with sinners, Nor my life with men of bloodshed,

¹⁰In whose hands is a wicked scheme, And whose right hand is full of bribes.

¹¹But as for me, I will walk in my integrity; Redeem me, and be gracious to me.

¹²My foot stands on level ground; In the congregations I will bless the Lord.
