Psalm 26 (WEBP)

[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.
