Psalm 26
or Coverdale
Judica me, Domine

¹Give judgment for me, O Lord,
for I have lived with integrity; *
I have trusted in the Lord and have not faltered.
²Test me, O Lord, and try me; *
examine my heart and my mind.
³For your love is before my eyes; *
I have walked faithfully with you.
⁴I have not sat with the worthless, *
nor do I consort with the deceitful.
⁵I have hated the company of evildoers; *
I will not sit down with the wicked.
⁶I will wash my hands in innocence, O Lord, *
that I may go in procession round your altar,
⁷Singing aloud a song of thanksgiving *
and recounting all your wonderful deeds.
⁸Lord, I love the house in which you dwell *
and the place where your glory abides.
⁹Do not sweep me away with sinners, *
nor my life with those who thirst for blood,
¹⁰Whose hands are full of evil plots, *
and their right hand full of bribes.
¹¹As for me, I will live with integrity; *
redeem me, O Lord, and have pity on me.
¹²My foot stands on level ground; *
in the full assembly I will bless the Lord.
