PSALM 26
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
A Psalm of David.
1Judge me, O Lord, for I have walk'd
in mine integrity:
I trusted also in the Lord;
slide therefore shall not I.
2Examine me, and do me prove;
try heart and reins, O God:
3For thy love is before mine eyes,
thy truth's paths I have trode.
4With persons vain I have not sat,
nor with dissemblers gone:
5Th' assembly of ill men I hate;
to sit with such I shun.
6Mine hands in innocence, O Lord,
I'll wash and purify;
So to thine holy altar go,
and compass it will I:
7That I, with voice of thanksgiving,
may publish and declare,
And tell of all thy mighty works,
that great and wondrous are.
8The habitation of thy house,
Lord, I have loved well;
Yea, in that place I do delight
where doth thine honour dwell.
9With sinners gather not my soul,
and such as blood would spill:
10Whose hands mischievous plots, right hand
corrupting bribes do fill.
11But as for me, I will walk on
in mine integrity:
Do thou redeem me, and, O Lord,
be merciful to me.
12My foot upon an even place
doth stand with stedfastness:
Within the congregations
th' Eternal I will bless.

Tehillim (Psalms) 26
26
1Rule me rightly, O יהוה, For I have walked in my integrity. And I have trusted in יהוה, without wavering.
2Examine me, O יהוה, and prove me; Try my kidneys and my heart.
3For Your loving-commitment is before my eyes, And I have walked in Your truth.
4I have not sat with men of falsehood, Nor do I enter with pretenders.
5I have hated the assembly of evil-doers, And I do not sit with the wrong.
6I wash my hands in innocence; And I walk around Your slaughter-place, O יהוה,
7To raise a voice of thanksgiving, And to declare all Your wonders.
8יהוה, I have loved the abode of Your house, And the place where Your esteem dwells.
9Do not gather my being together with sinners, Nor my life with bloodthirsty men,
10In whose hands is a plot, And their right hand is filled with bribes.
11But as for me, I walk in my integrity; Redeem me and show me favour.
12My foot shall stand on a level place; In the assemblies I bless יהוה.
