Psalms 26 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

A Psalm of David.

1. Judge me, O Lord, for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the Lord without wavering.

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

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

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

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

6. I will wash mine hands in innocency; so will I compass thine altar, O Lord:

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

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

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

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

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

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