Psalms 26 · Clearspring

Of David.

Vindicate Me, O LORD

¹Judge me, LORD, for I have walked in my integrity. I have trusted also in the LORD without wavering.+ ²Examine me, LORD, and prove me. Try my heart and my mind.+ ³For your loving kindness is before my eyes. I have walked in your truth.+ ⁴I have not sat with deceitful men, neither will I go in with hypocrites.+ ⁵I hate the assembly of evildoers, and will not sit with the wicked.+ ⁶I will wash my hands in innocence, so I will go about your altar, LORD,+ ⁷that I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard and tell of all your wondrous deeds.+ ⁸LORD, I love the habitation of your house, the place where your glory dwells.+ ⁹Don’t gather my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloodthirsty men+ ¹⁰in whose hands is wickedness; their right hand is full of bribes.+ ¹¹But as for me, I will walk in my integrity. Redeem me, and be merciful to me.+ ¹²My foot stands in an even place. In the congregations I will bless the LORD.+
