King James Version (1611 Edition)
Psalms 26
1 [A Psalme of Dauid.] Iudge me, O Lord, for I haue walked in mine integritie: I haue trusted also in the Lord: therfore I shall not slide. 2 Examine me, O Lord, and proue me; try my reines and my heart. 3 For thy louing kindnesse is before mine eyes: and I haue walked in thy trueth. 4 I haue not sate with vaine persons, neither will I goe in with dissemblers. 5 I haue hated the congregation of euill doers: and will not sit with the wicked.
6 I will wash mine hands in innocencie: so will I compasse thine Altar, O Lord: 7 That I may publish with the voyce of thankesgiuing, and tell of all thy wonderous workes. 8 Lord, I haue loued the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth. 9 Gather not my soule with sinners, nor my life with bloody men. 10 In whose hands is mischiefe: and their right hand is full of bribes. 11 But as for mee, I will walke in mine integritie: redeeme me, and bee mercifull vnto me. 12 My foot standeth in an euen place: in the congregations will I blesse the Lord.
