Psalms 26

1 [A Psalm] of David. Judge me, O LORD, for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD without wavering.

psalmus David iudica me Domine quoniam ego in innocentia mea ingressus sum et in Domino sperans non infirmabor

2 Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.

proba me Domine et tempta me ure renes meos et cor meum

3 For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes; and I have walked in thy truth.

quoniam misericordia tua ante oculos meos est et conplacui in veritate tua

4 I have not sat with vain persons; neither will I go in with dissemblers.

non sedi cum concilio vanitatis et cum iniqua gerentibus non introibo

5 I hate the congregation of evil-doers, and will not sit with the wicked.

odivi ecclesiam malignantium et cum impiis non sedebo

6 I will wash mine hands in innocency; so will I compass thine altar, O LORD:

lavabo inter innocentes manus meas et circumdabo altare tuum Domine

7 That I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard, and tell of all thy wondrous works.

ut audiam vocem laudis et enarrem universa mirabilia tua

8 LORD, I love the habitation of thy house, and the place where thy glory dwelleth.

Domine dilexi decorem domus tuae et locum habitationis gloriae tuae

9 Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with men of blood:

ne perdas cum impiis animam meam et cum viris sanguinum vitam meam

10 In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes.

in quorum manibus iniquitates sunt dextera eorum repleta est muneribus

11 But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me.

ego autem in innocentia mea ingressus sum redime me et miserere mei

12 My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the LORD.

pes meus stetit in directo in ecclesiis benedicam te Domine
