¹(26) [A Psalm] of David. Judge me, O Lord; for I have walked in my innocence: and hoping in the Lord I shall not be moved.

¹By David. Judge me, Yahweh, for I have walked in my integrity. I have trusted also in Yahweh without wavering.

²Prove me, O Lord, and try me; purify as with fire my reins and my heart.

²Examine me, Yahweh, and prove me. Try my heart and my mind.

³For your mercy is before my eyes: and I am well pleased with your truth.

³For your loving kindness is before my eyes. I have walked in your truth.

⁴I have not sat with the council of vanity, and will in nowise enter in with transgressors.

⁴I have not sat with deceitful men, neither will I go in with hypocrites.

⁵I have hated the assembly of wicked doers; and will not sit with ungodly [men].

⁵I hate the assembly of evildoers, and will not sit with the wicked.

⁶I will wash my hands in innocency, and compass your altar, O Lord:

⁶I will wash my hands in innocence, so I will go about your altar, Yahweh,

⁷to hear the voice of praise, and to declare all your wonderful works.

⁷that I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard and tell of all your wondrous deeds.

⁸O Lord, I have loved the beauty of your house, and the place of the tabernacle of your glory .

⁸Yahweh, I love the habitation of your house, the place where your glory dwells.

⁹Destroy not my soul together with the ungodly, nor my life with bloody men:

⁹Don’t gather my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloodthirsty men

¹⁰in whose hands [are] iniquities, [and] their right hand is filled with bribes.

¹⁰in whose hands is wickedness; their right hand is full of bribes.

¹¹But I have walked in my innocence: redeem me, and have mercy upon me.

¹¹But as for me, I will walk in my integrity. Redeem me, and be merciful to me.

¹²My foot stands in an even place: in the congregations will I bless you, O Lord.

¹²My foot stands in an even place. In the congregations I will bless Yahweh.
