The Book of Psalms, Chapter 26
|
1 |
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.
