תהילים 26

1 לְדָוִד ׀ שָׁפְטֵנִי יְהוָה כִּֽי־אֲנִי בְּתֻמִּי הָלַכְתִּי וּבַיהוָה בָּטַחְתִּי לֹא אֶמְעָֽד׃

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

2 בְּחָנֵנִי יְהוָה וְנַסֵּנִי צרופה צָרְפָה כִלְיוֹתַי וְלִבִּֽי׃

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

3 כִּֽי־חַסְדְּךָ לְנֶגֶד עֵינָי וְהִתְהַלַּכְתִּי בַּאֲמִתֶּֽךָ׃

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

4 לֹא־יָשַׁבְתִּי עִם־מְתֵי־שָׁוְא וְעִם נַעֲלָמִים לֹא אָבֽוֹא׃

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

5 שָׂנֵאתִי קְהַל מְרֵעִים וְעִם־רְשָׁעִים לֹא אֵשֵֽׁב׃

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

6 אֶרְחַץ בְּנִקָּיוֹן כַּפָּי וַאֲסֹבְבָה אֶת־מִזְבַּחֲךָ יְהוָֽה׃

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

7 לַשְׁמִעַ בְּקוֹל תּוֹדָה וּלְסַפֵּר כָּל־נִפְלְאוֹתֶֽיךָ׃

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

8 יְֽהוָה אָהַבְתִּי מְעוֹן בֵּיתֶךָ וּמְקוֹם מִשְׁכַּן כְּבוֹדֶֽךָ׃

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

9 אַל־תֶּאֱסֹף עִם־חַטָּאִים נַפְשִׁי וְעִם־אַנְשֵׁי דָמִים חַיָּֽי׃

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

10 אֲשֶׁר־בִּידֵיהֶם זִמָּה וִֽימִינָם מָלְאָה שֹּֽׁחַד׃

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

11 וַאֲנִי בְּתֻמִּי אֵלֵךְ פְּדֵנִי וְחָנֵּֽנִי׃

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

12 רַגְלִי עָֽמְדָה בְמִישׁוֹר בְּמַקְהֵלִים אֲבָרֵךְ יְהוָֽה׃

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