诗篇 26
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
义人的祈求
大卫的诗。
26 耶和华啊，求你为我申冤，
因为我行为纯全，
毫不动摇地信靠你。
2 耶和华啊，求你察验我，
试炼我，鉴察我的心思意念。
3 因为我铭记你的慈爱，
我行在你的真理中。
4 我没有与诡诈者为伍，
没有跟虚伪之人同流。
5 我憎恨奸恶之辈，
不愿与恶人交往。
6 耶和华啊，我洗手表明清白，
再走到你的坛前，
7 高唱感恩之歌，
述说你的一切奇妙作为。
8 耶和华啊，我爱你的殿，
你荣耀充满的地方。
9 别把我的灵魂和罪人同毁，
别把我的性命与嗜血之徒同灭。
10 他们满腹奸计，收受贿赂。
11 但我行为纯全，
求你施恩拯救我。
12 我站在平安之地，
我要在众人面前赞美耶和华。
Psalm 26
Common English Bible
Psalm 26
Of David.
26 Establish justice for me, Lord,
because I have walked with integrity.
I’ve trusted the Lord without wavering.
2 Examine me, Lord; put me to the test!
Purify[a] my mind[b] and my heart.
3 Because your faithful love is right in front of me—
I walk in your truth!
4 I don’t spend time with people up to no good;
I don’t keep company with liars.
5 I detest the company of evildoers,
and I don’t sit with wicked people.
6 I wash my hands—they are innocent!
I walk all around your altar, Lord,
7 proclaiming out loud my thanks,
declaring all your wonderful deeds!
8 I love the beauty[c] of your house, Lord;
I love the place where your glory resides.
9 Don’t gather me[d] up with the sinners,
taking my life along with violent people
10 in whose hands are evil schemes,
whose strong hands are full of bribes.
11 But me? I walk with integrity.
Save me! Have mercy on me!
12 My feet now stand on level ground.
I will bless the Lord in the great congregation.

Contemporary English Version
(By David.)
The Prayer of an Innocent Person
1 Show that I am right, Lord!
I stay true to myself,
and I have trusted you
without doubting.
2 Test my thoughts and find out
what I am like.
3 I never forget your kindness,
and I am always faithful
to you.[a]
4 I don't spend my time
with worthless liars
5 or go with evil crowds.
6 I wash my hands, Lord,
to show my innocence,
and I worship at your altar,
7 while gratefully singing
about your wonders.
8 I love the temple
where you live, and where
your glory shines.
9 Don't sweep me away,
as you do sinners.
Don't punish me with death
as you do those people
who are brutal
10 or full of meanness
or who bribe others.
11 I stay true to myself.
Be kind and rescue me.
12 Now I stand on solid ground!
And when your people meet,
I will praise you, Lord.
