Psalms 26:1-7

1 Clear my name, God; I've kept an honest shop. I've thrown in my lot with you, God, and I'm not budging.

1 Vindicate me, LORD, for I have led a blameless life; I have trusted in the LORDand have not faltered.

2 Examine me, God, from head to foot, order your battery of tests. Make sure I'm fit inside and out

2 Test me, LORD, and try me, examine my heart and my mind;

3 So I never lose sight of your love, But keep in step with you, never missing a beat.

3 for I have always been mindful of your unfailing love and have lived in reliance on your faithfulness.

4 I don't hang out with tricksters, I don't pal around with thugs;

4 I do not sit with the deceitful, nor do I associate with hypocrites.

5 I hate that pack of gangsters, I don't deal with double-dealers.

5 I abhor the assembly of evildoers and refuse to sit with the wicked.

6 I scrub my hands with purest soap, then join hands with the others in the great circle, dancing around your altar, God,

6 I wash my hands in innocence, and go about your altar, LORD,

7 Singing God-songs at the top of my lungs, telling God-stories.

7 proclaiming aloud your praise and telling of all your wonderful deeds.
