Psalms 26
1 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.
[A Psalm] of David. Judge me, O Jehovah, for I have walked in mine integrity, and I have confided in Jehovah: I shall not slip.
2 Proue me, O Lord, and trie mee: examine my reines, and mine heart.
Prove me, Jehovah, and test me; try my reins and my heart:
3 For thy louing kindnesse is before mine eyes: therefore haue I walked in thy trueth.
For thy loving-kindness is before mine eyes, and I have walked in thy truth.
4 I haue not hanted with vaine persons, neither kept companie with the dissemblers.
I have not sat with vain persons, neither have I gone in with dissemblers;
5 I haue hated the assemblie of the euill, and haue not companied with the wicked.
I have hated the congregation of evil-doers, and I have not sat with the wicked.
6 I will wash mine handes in innocencie, O Lord, and compasse thine altar,
I will wash my hands in innocency, and will encompass thine altar, O Jehovah,
7 That I may declare with the voyce of thankesgiuing, and set foorth all thy wonderous woorkes.
That I may cause the voice of thanksgiving to be heard, and declare all thy marvellous works.
8 O Lord, I haue loued the habitation of thine house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth.
Jehovah, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thy glory dwelleth.
9 Gather not my soule with the sinners, nor my life with the bloodie men:
Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with men of blood;
10 In whose handes is wickednes, and their right hand is full of bribes.
In whose hands are evil devices, and their right hand is full of bribes.
11 But I will walke in mine innocencie: redeeme me therefore, and be mercifull vnto me.
But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity. Redeem me, and be gracious unto me.
12 My foote standeth in vprightnesse: I will praise thee, O Lord, in the Congregations.
My foot standeth in an even place; in the congregations will I bless Jehovah.
