詩篇 26

1 大衛的詩。 耶和華啊，求你為我伸冤， 因我向來行事純全； 我又倚靠耶和華，並不搖動。

[A Psalm] of David. Judge me, O Lord; for I have walked in my innocence: and hoping in the Lord I shall not be moved.

2 耶和華啊，求你察看我，試驗我， 熬煉我的肺腑心腸。

Prove me, O Lord, and try me; purify as with fire my reins and my heart.

3 因為你的慈愛常在我眼前， 我也按你的真理而行。

For your mercy is before mine eyes: and I am well pleased with your truth.

4 我沒有和虛謊人同坐， 也不與瞞哄人的同群。

I have not sat with the council of vanity, and will in nowise enter in with transgressors.

5 我恨惡惡人的會， 必不與惡人同坐。

I have hated the assembly of wicked doers; and will not sit with ungodly [men].

6 耶和華啊，我要洗手表明無辜， 才環繞你的祭壇；

I will wash my hands in innocency, and compass your altar, O Lord:

7 我好發稱謝的聲音， 也要述說你一切奇妙的作為。

to hear the voice of praise, and to declare all your wonderful works.

8 耶和華啊，我喜愛你所住的殿 和你顯榮耀的居所。

O Lord, I have loved the beauty of your house, and the place of the tabernacle of your glory.

9 不要把我的靈魂和罪人一同除掉； 不要把我的性命和流人血的一同除掉。

Destroy not my soul together with the ungodly, nor my life with bloody men:

10 他們的手中有奸惡， 右手滿有賄賂。

in whose hands [are] iniquities, [and] their right hand is filled with bribes.

11 至於我，卻要行事純全； 求你救贖我，憐恤我！

But I have walked in my innocence: redeem me, and have mercy upon me.

12 我的腳站在平坦地方； 在眾會中我要稱頌耶和華！

My foot stands in an even place: in the congregations will I bless you, O Lord.
