Psalms 26 / 150
- 1Vindicate me, O LORD , for I have led a blameless life; I have trusted in the LORD without wavering.
- 2Test me, O LORD , and try me, examine my heart and my mind;
- 3for your love is ever before me, and I walk continually in your truth.
- 4I do not sit with deceitful men, nor do I consort with hypocrites;
- 5I abhor the assembly of evildoers and refuse to sit with the wicked.
- 6I wash my hands in innocence, and go about your altar, O LORD ,
- 7proclaiming aloud your praise and telling of all your wonderful deeds.
- 8I love the house where you live, O LORD , the place where your glory dwells.
- 9Do not take away my soul along with sinners, my life with bloodthirsty men,
- 10in whose hands are wicked schemes, whose right hands are full of bribes.
- 11But I lead a blameless life; redeem me and be merciful to me.
- 12My feet stand on level ground; in the great assembly I will praise the LORD .
