26:1 Judge me, O Jehovah, because I have walked in my integrity. I have also trusted in Jehovah without wavering. 26:2 Examine me, O Jehovah and prove me. Try my heart and my mind. 26:3 Because your loving kindness is before my eyes and I have walked in your truth.

    26:4 I have not sat with men of falsehood, nor will I go in with pretenders. 26:5 I hate the assembly of evildoers and will not sit with the wicked.

    26:6 I will wash my hands in innocence, so I will encompass your altar, O Jehovah, 26:7 that I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard and tell of all your wondrous works. 26:8 Jehovah, I love the dwelling of your house and the place where your glory dwells.

    26:9 Do not gather my soul with sinners, nor my life with men of blood, 26:10 in whose hands is wickedness and their right hand is full of bribes.

    26:11 But as for me, I will walk in my integrity. Redeem me and be merciful to me. 26:12 My foot stands in an even place. I will praise Jehovah in the congregations.
