26
1 “Of David.” Judge me, O Lord; for I have indeed walked in my integrity: and in the Lord have I trusted; I shall not slip. 2 Try me, O Lord, and prove me; purify my reins and my heart. 3 For thy kindness is before my eyes; and I have walked in thy truth. 4 I have not sat with men of falsehood, and with dissemblers will I not enter [in communion]. 5 I have hated the assemblage of evil-doers; and with the wicked will I not sit. 6 I will wash in innocency my hands, and I will compass thy altar, O Lord: 7 That I may publish with a loud voice [my] thanksgiving, and relate all thy wondrous deeds. 8 Lord, I love the site of thy house, and the place where thy glory dwelleth. 9 Take not away with sinners my soul, nor with men of blood my life; 10 In whose hands are wicked devices, and whose right hand is full of bribes. 11 But as for me, I will walk in my integrity: redeem me, and be gracious unto me. 12 My foot standeth on an even place: in assemblies will I bless the Lord.
