诗篇 26

1 大卫的诗。 耶和华啊，求你为我伸冤， 因我向来行事纯全； 我又倚靠耶和华，并不摇动。

“A psalm of David.” Be thou my judge, O LORD! for I have walked in uprightness. I have put my trust in the LORD, therefore shall I not fall.

2 耶和华啊，求你察看我，试验我， 熬炼我的肺腑心肠。

Examine me, O LORD! and prove me; Try my reins and my heart!

3 因为你的慈爱常在我眼前， 我也按你的真理而行。

For thy kindness is ever before my eyes, And I walk in thy truth.

4 我没有和虚谎人同坐， 也不与瞒哄人的同群。

I sit not with men of falsehood. And go not in company with dissemblers.

5 我恨恶恶人的会， 必不与恶人同坐。

I hate the assembly of evil-doers, And do not sit with the wicked.

6 耶和华啊，我要洗手表明无辜， 才环绕你的祭坛；

I wash my hands in innocence. And go around thine altar. O LORD!

7 我好发称谢的声音， 也要述说你一切奇妙的作为。

To utter the voice of thanksgiving, And tell of all thy wondrous works.

8 耶和华啊，我喜爱你所住的殿 和你显荣耀的居所。

O LORD! I love the habitation of thy house, The place where thine honor dwelleth!

9 不要把我的灵魂和罪人一同除掉； 不要把我的性命和流人血的一同除掉。

Gather not my breath with sinners, Nor my life with men of blood,

10 他们的手中有奸恶， 右手满有贿赂。

In whose hands is mischief, And whose right hands are full of bribes!

11 至于我，却要行事纯全； 求你救赎我，怜恤我！

But as for me, I walk in my integrity; Oh, redeem me, and be merciful to me!

12 我的脚站在平坦地方； 在众会中我要称颂耶和华！

My feet tread in a straight path; In the congregation will I bless the LORD.
