Psalms, Chapter 26

  
1. <[A Psalm] of David.> 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.
