Psalm 26
Of David.
1Vindicate me, Lord,
for I have led a blameless life;
I have trusted in the Lord
and have not faltered.
2Test me, Lord, and try me,
examine my heart and my mind;
3for I have always been mindful of your unfailing love
and have lived in reliance on your faithfulness.
4I do not sit with the deceitful,
nor do I associate 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, Lord,
7proclaiming aloud your praise
and telling of all your wonderful deeds.
8 Lord, I love the house where you live,
the place where your glory dwells.
9Do not take away my soul along with sinners,
my life with those who are bloodthirsty,
10in whose hands are wicked schemes,
whose right hands are full of bribes.
11I lead a blameless life;
deliver me and be merciful to me.
12My feet stand on level ground;
in the great congregation I will praise the Lord.

Psalm 26
By David.
1Judge me favorably, O Lord,
because I have walked with integrity
and I have trusted you without wavering.
2Examine me, O Lord, and test me.
Look closely into my heart and mind.
3I see your mercy in front of me.
I walk in the light of your truth.
4I did not sit with liars,
and I will not be found among hypocrites.
5I have hated the mob of evildoers
and will not sit with wicked people.
6I will wash my hands in innocence.
I will walk around your altar, O Lord,
7so that I may loudly sing a hymn of thanksgiving
and tell about all your miracles.
8O Lord, I love the house where you live,
the place where your glory dwells.
9Do not sweep away my soul along with hardened sinners
or my life along with bloodthirsty people.
10Evil schemes are in their hands.
Their right hands are full of bribes.
11But I walk with integrity.
Rescue me, and have pity on me.
12My feet stand on level ground.
I will praise the Lord with the choirs in worship.
