Chapter 26
1 Judge me , Yahweh , for I have walked in my integrity . I have trusted also in Yahweh without wavering .
2 Examine me , Yahweh , and prove me . Try my heart and my mind .
3 For your loving kindness is before my eyes . I have walked in your truth.
4 I have not sat with deceitful men , neither will I go in with hypocrites.
5 I hate the assembly of evildoers , and will not sit with the wicked .
6 I will wash my hands in innocence , so I will go about your altar , Yahweh ,
7 that I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard and tell of all your wondrous deeds .
8 Yahweh , I love the habitation of your house , the place where your glory dwells .
9 Don’t gather my soul with sinners , nor my life with bloodthirsty men
10 in whose hands is wickedness ; their right hand is full of bribes .
11 But as for me , I will walk in my integrity . Redeem me , and be merciful to me .
12 My foot stands in an even place . In the congregations I will bless Yahweh .
