< Psalms 26 >
1 By David. Judge me, Yahweh, for I have walked in my integrity. I have trusted also 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 prove me. Try my heart and my mind.
耶和華啊,求你察看我,試驗我, 熬煉我的肺腑心腸。
3 For your loving kindness is before my eyes. I have walked in your truth.
因為你的慈愛常在我眼前, 我也按你的真理而行。
4 I have not sat with deceitful men, neither will I go in with hypocrites.
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 will not sit with the wicked.
我恨惡惡人的會, 必不與惡人同坐。
6 I will wash my hands in innocence, so I will go about your altar, Yahweh,
耶和華啊,我要洗手表明無辜, 才環繞你的祭壇;
7 that I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard and tell of all your wondrous 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 habitation of your house, the place where your glory dwells.
耶和華啊,我喜愛你所住的殿 和你顯榮耀的居所。
9 Don’t gather my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloodthirsty men
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 is wickedness; their 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 my integrity. Redeem me, and be merciful to me.
至於我,卻要行事純全; 求你救贖我,憐恤我!
12 My foot stands in an even place. In the congregations I will bless Yahweh.
我的腳站在平坦地方; 在眾會中我要稱頌耶和華!
