Psalms 26

CLV(i) 1 {Davidic{ Judge me, O Yahweh, for I have walked in my integrity, And I have trusted in Yahweh; I shall not totter." 2 Test me, O Yahweh, and try me; Do refine my innermost being and my heart." 3 For Your benignity is in front of my eyes, And I have walked in Your truth." 4 I have not sat with men of hypocrisy, And with dissemblers I shall not enter." 5 I have hated the assembly of evildoers, And with the wicked I shall not sit." 6 I shall wash my palms in innocency, And I will go around Your altar, O Yahweh, 7 To announce with the voice of acclamation, And to recount all Your marvelous works." 8 O Yahweh, I have loved the pleasantness of Your House And the Place where Your glory is tabernacling." 9 Do not gather up my soul with sinners Or my life with bloodthirsty men, 10 In whose hands is scheming, And their right hand is full of bribes." 11 As for me, I shall walk in my integrity. Ransom me, and be gracious to me." 12 My foot has stood on level ground; In the assemblies, I shall bless You, O Yahweh."
