תְהִלִּים 26

1 לְדָוִ֨ד ׀ שָׁפְטֵ֤נִי יְהוָ֗ה כִּֽי־אֲ֭נִי בְּתֻמִּ֣י הָלַ֑כְתִּי וּבַיהוָ֥ה בָּ֝טַ֗חְתִּי לֹ֣א אֶמְעָֽד׃

Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in my integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; therefore I shall not slide.

2 בְּחָנֵ֣נִי יְהוָ֣ה וְנַסֵּ֑נִי צָרְפָ֖ה כִלְיוֹתַ֣י וְלִבִּֽי׃

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

3 כִּֽי־חַ֭סְדְּךָ לְנֶ֣גֶד עֵינָ֑י וְ֝הִתְהַלַּ֗כְתִּי בַּאֲמִתֶּֽךָ׃

For your loving kindness is before my eyes: and I have walked in your truth.

4 לֹא־יָ֭שַׁבְתִּי עִם־מְתֵי־שָׁ֑וְא וְעִ֥ם נַ֝עֲלָמִ֗ים לֹ֣א אָבֽוֹא׃

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

5 שָׂ֭נֵאתִי קְהַ֣ל מְרֵעִ֑ים וְעִם־רְ֝שָׁעִ֗ים לֹ֣א אֵשֵֽׁב׃

I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked.

6 אֶרְחַ֣ץ בְּנִקָּי֣וֹן כַּפָּ֑י וַאֲסֹבְבָ֖ה אֶת־מִזְבַּחֲךָ֣ יְהוָֽה׃

I will wash my hands in innocence: so will I compass your altar, O LORD:

7 לַ֭שְׁמִעַ בְּק֣וֹל תּוֹדָ֑ה וּ֝לְסַפֵּ֗ר כָּל־נִפְלְאוֹתֶֽיךָ׃

That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all your wondrous works.

8 יְֽהוָ֗ה אָ֭הַבְתִּי מְע֣וֹן בֵּיתֶ֑ךָ וּ֝מְק֗וֹם מִשְׁכַּ֥ן כְּבוֹדֶֽךָ׃

LORD, I have loved the habitation of your house, and the place where your honor dwells.

9 אַל־תֶּאֱסֹ֣ף עִם־חַטָּאִ֣ים נַפְשִׁ֑י וְעִם־אַנְשֵׁ֖י דָמִ֣ים חַיָּֽי׃

Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men:

10 אֲשֶׁר־בִּידֵיהֶ֥ם זִמָּ֑ה וִֽ֝ימִינָ֗ם מָ֣לְאָה שֹּֽׁחַד׃

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

11 וַ֭אֲנִי בְּתֻמִּ֥י אֵלֵ֗ךְ פְּדֵ֣נִי וְחָנֵּֽנִי׃

But as for me, I will walk in my integrity: redeem me, and be merciful to me.

12 רַ֭גְלִי עָֽמְדָ֣ה בְמִישׁ֑וֹר בְּ֝מַקְהֵלִ֗ים אֲבָרֵ֥ךְ יְהוָֽה׃

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