Psalm 26

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 By David: Vindicate me, ADONAI, for I have lived a blameless life; unwaveringly I trust in ADONAI.

2 Examine me, ADONAI, test me, search my mind and heart.

3 For your grace is there before my eyes, and I live my life by your truth.

4 I have not sat with worthless folks, I won't consort with hypocrites,

5 I hate the company of evildoers, I will not sit with the wicked.

6 I will wash my hands in innocence and walk around your altar, ADONAI,

7 lifting my voice in thanks and proclaiming all your wonders.

8 ADONAI, I love the house where you live, the place where your glory abides.

9 Don't include me with sinners or my life with the bloodthirsty.

10 In their hands are evil schemes; their right hands are full of bribes.

11 As for me, I will live a blameless life. Redeem me and show me favor.

12 My feet are planted on level ground; in the assemblies I will bless ADONAI.

New Living Translation NLT

1 Declare me innocent, O LORD, for I have acted with integrity; I have trusted in the LORD without wavering.

2 Put me on trial, LORD, and cross-examine me. Test my motives and my heart.

3 For I am always aware of your unfailing love, and I have lived according to your truth.

4 I do not spend time with liars or go along with hypocrites.

5 I hate the gatherings of those who do evil, and I refuse to join in with the wicked.

6 I wash my hands to declare my innocence. I come to your altar, O LORD,

7 singing a song of thanksgiving and telling of all your wonders.

8 I love your sanctuary, LORD, the place where your glorious presence dwells.

9 Don’t let me suffer the fate of sinners. Don’t condemn me along with murderers.

10 Their hands are dirty with evil schemes, and they constantly take bribes.

11 But I am not like that; I live with integrity. So redeem me and show me mercy.

12 Now I stand on solid ground, and I will publicly praise the LORD .
