< Psalms 26 >
1 A psalm of David. Judge me, Yahweh, for I have walked with integrity; I have trusted in Yahweh without wavering.
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。
2 Examine me, Yahweh, and test me; test the purity of my inner parts and my heart!
耶和華啊,求你察看我,試驗我, 熬煉我的肺腑心腸。
3 For your covenant faithfulness is before my eyes, and I walk about in your faithfulness.
因為你的慈愛常在我眼前, 我也按你的真理而行。
4 I do not associate with deceitful people, nor do I mingle with dishonest people.
我沒有和虛謊人同坐, 也不與瞞哄人的同群。
5 I hate the assembly of evildoers, and I do not live with the wicked.
我恨惡惡人的會, 必不與惡人同坐。
6 I wash my hands in innocence, and I go around your altar, Yahweh,
耶和華啊,我要洗手表明無辜, 才環繞你的祭壇;
7 to sing a loud song of praise and report all your wonderful deeds.
我好發稱謝的聲音, 也要述說你一切奇妙的作為。
8 Yahweh, I love the house where you live, the place where your glory lives!
耶和華啊,我喜愛你所住的殿 和你顯榮耀的居所。
9 Do not sweep me away with sinners, or my life with people who are bloodthirsty,
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。
10 in whose hands there is a plot, and whose right hand is full of bribes.
他們的手中有奸惡, 右手滿有賄賂。
11 But as for me, I will walk in integrity; redeem me and have mercy on me.
至於我,卻要行事純全; 求你救贖我,憐恤我!
12 My foot stands on level ground; in the assemblies will I bless Yahweh!
我的腳站在平坦地方; 在眾會中我要稱頌耶和華!
