Psalm 26


Give Justice to Me, O Yahweh

Of David.

aGive justice to me, O Yahweh, for I have bwalked in my integrity,
And I have ctrusted in Yahweh; dI will not waver.

2
aTest me, O Yahweh, and try me;
bRefine my 1mind and my heart.

3
For Your alovingkindness is before my eyes,
And I have bwalked in Your 1truth.

4
I do not asit with worthless men,
And I will not go with 1bpretenders.

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

6
I shall awash my hands in innocence,
So I will go around bYour altar, O Yahweh,

7
In order to proclaim with the voice of athanksgiving
And to recount all Your 1wondrous deeds.


8
O Yahweh, I alove the habitation of Your house
And the place 1where Your bglory dwells.

9
aDo not 1take my soul away along with sinners,
Nor my life with bmen of bloodshed,

10
In whose hands is a awicked scheme,
And whose right hand is full of bbribes.

11
But as for me, I shall awalk in my integrity;
bRedeem me, and be gracious to me.

12
aMy foot stands on blevel ground;
In the ccongregations I shall bless Yahweh.
