< Psalms 26 >

1 BY DAVID. Judge me, O YHWH, for I have walked in my integrity, And I have trusted in YHWH, I do not slide.
לְדָוִד ׀ שָׁפְטֵנִי יְהוָה כִּֽי־אֲנִי בְּתֻמִּי הָלַכְתִּי וּבַיהוָה בָּטַחְתִּי לֹא אֶמְעָֽד׃
2 Try me, O YHWH, and prove me, My reins and my heart [are] purified,
בְּחָנֵנִי יְהוָה וְנַסֵּנִי צרופה צָרְפָה כִלְיוֹתַי וְלִבִּֽי׃
3 For Your kindness [is] before my eyes, And I have habitually walked in Your truth.
כִּֽי־חַסְדְּךָ לְנֶגֶד עֵינָי וְהִתְהַלַּכְתִּי בַּאֲמִתֶּֽךָ׃
4 I have not sat with vain men, And I do not enter with pretenders.
לֹא־יָשַׁבְתִּי עִם־מְתֵי־שָׁוְא וְעִם נַעֲלָמִים לֹא אָבֽוֹא׃
5 I have hated the assembly of evildoers, And I do not sit with the wicked.
שָׂנֵאתִי קְהַל מְרֵעִים וְעִם־רְשָׁעִים לֹא אֵשֵֽׁב׃
6 I wash my hands in innocence, And I go around Your altar, O YHWH.
אֶרְחַץ בְּנִקָּיוֹן כַּפָּי וַאֲסֹבְבָה אֶת־מִזְבַּחֲךָ יְהוָֽה׃
7 To sound with a voice of confession, And to recount all Your wonders.
לַשְׁמִעַ בְּקוֹל תּוֹדָה וּלְסַפֵּר כָּל־נִפְלְאוֹתֶֽיךָ׃
8 YHWH, I have loved the habitation of Your house, And the place of the Dwelling Place of Your glory.
יְֽהוָה אָהַבְתִּי מְעוֹן בֵּיתֶךָ וּמְקוֹם מִשְׁכַּן כְּבוֹדֶֽךָ׃
9 Do not gather my soul with sinners, And my life with men of blood,
אַל־תֶּאֱסֹף עִם־חַטָּאִים נַפְשִׁי וְעִם־אַנְשֵׁי דָמִים חַיָּֽי׃
10 In whose hand [is] a wicked scheme, And their right hand [is] full of bribes.
אֲשֶׁר־בִּידֵיהֶם זִמָּה וִֽימִינָם מָלְאָה שֹּֽׁחַד׃
11 And I walk in my integrity, Redeem me, and favor me.
וַאֲנִי בְּתֻמִּי אֵלֵךְ פְּדֵנִי וְחָנֵּֽנִי׃
12 My foot has stood in uprightness, In assemblies I bless YHWH!
רַגְלִי עָֽמְדָה בְמִישׁוֹר בְּמַקְהֵלִים אֲבָרֵךְ יְהוָֽה׃
