詩篇 26

1 上主求你替我主持正義，因我行動無辜，我曾毫不猶豫地全心依賴了上主。

A Psalme of David. Judge me, O Lord, for I haue walked in mine innocency: my trust hath bene also in the Lord: therefore shall I not slide.

2 上主，你儘管對我試驗，對我查考，你儘管對我的五內和心臟探討；

Proue me, O Lord, and trie mee: examine my reines, and mine heart.

3 原來你的受常擺在我眼前，我常遵照你的真理行走盤桓。

For thy louing kindnesse is before mine eyes: therefore haue I walked in thy trueth.

4 我決不與虛偽的人同坐，也決不與欺詐的人合作；

I haue not hanted with vaine persons, neither kept companie with the dissemblers.

5 我常痛恨敗類的集會，我也決不與惡人同席。

I haue hated the assemblie of the euill, and haue not companied with the wicked.

6 上主我要洗手表明無罪，我要走在你的祭壇周圍，

I will wash mine handes in innocencie, O Lord, and compasse thine altar,

7 為能高聲向你稱揚讚頌，傳述你的一切奇妙化工。

That I may declare with the voyce of thankesgiuing, and set foorth all thy wonderous woorkes.

8 上主，我喜愛你所住的殿堂，就是你那榮耀寄居的地方。

O Lord, I haue loued the habitation of thine house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth.

9 求你不要把我的靈魂和罪人們一起收去；求你不要把我的生命與流血者一起剷除。

Gather not my soule with the sinners, nor my life with the bloodie men:

10 因為他們的手中盡是罪污，他們的右手滿是賄賂；

In whose handes is wickednes, and their right hand is full of bribes.

11 我卻一向行動無辜，求你救我，求你憐恤。

But I will walke in mine innocencie: redeeme me therefore, and be mercifull vnto me.

12 我的腳站立於平坦大路，在集會中我要讚頌上主。

My foote standeth in vprightnesse: I will praise thee, O Lord, in the Congregations.
