Psalm 26

Davidic – A Man of Integrity Pleads for Justice

Psalm 25   ■   Psalm 27

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

11 But as for me, I will walk in my integrity.
    Redeem me, and be merciful to me.
12 My foot stands in an even place.
    In the congregations I will bless Yahweh.
