1901 American Standard Version (ASV)

David resorteth unto God in confidence of his integrity.

26:1 ¶ [[[A Psalm] of David.]] Judge me, O Jehovah, for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in Jehovah without wavering.

26:2 Examine me, O Jehovah, and prove me; Try my heart and my mind.

26:3 For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes; And I have walked in thy truth.

26:4 I have not sat with men of falsehood; Neither will I go in with dissemblers.

26:5 I hate the assembly of evil-doers, And will not sit with the wicked.

26:6 I will wash my hands in innocency: So will I compass thine altar, O Jehovah;

26:7 That I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard, And tell of all thy wondrous works.

26:8 Jehovah, I love the habitation of thy house, And the place where thy glory dwelleth.

26:9 Gather not 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 mine integrity: Redeem me, and be merciful unto me.

26:12 My foot standeth in an even place: In the congregations will I bless Jehovah.
