Psalms • Chapter 26

1 A psalm of David. Confirm that I'm innocent, Lord, for I have acted with integrity, and I have trusted in the Lord without fail. 2 Examine me, Lord, test me; investigate my thoughts and intentions. 3 For I always remember your trustworthy love, and I follow your truth. 4 I refuse to get together with those who do evil, and I won't involve myself with the wicked. 5 I wash my hands to show my innocence. I come to worship at your altar, Lord, 6 singing my thanks, telling of all the wonderful things you have done. 7 Lord, I love your house, the place where you live in your glory. 8 Please don't sweep me away along with sinners. Don't include me with those who commit murder, 9 For I don't do that—I act with integrity. Save me and be gracious to me! 10 I stand for what's right, and I will praise the Lord when we meet together to worship him.
