無辜人祈求 神伸冤

大衛的詩。

26 耶和華啊!求你為我伸冤,

因為我向來行事正直;

我倚靠耶和華,並不動搖。(本節在《馬索拉文本》包括細字標題)

耶和華啊!求你試驗我,鑒察我,

熬煉我的肺腑心腸。

因為你的慈愛常在我的眼前,

我行事為人都按著你的真理。

我決不與奸詐的人同坐,

也不和虛偽的人來往。

我恨惡惡人的聚會,

也不與作惡的同坐。

耶和華啊!我要洗手表明無辜,

才來繞著你的祭壇行走;

好使我發出稱謝的聲音,

述說你一切奇妙的作為。

耶和華啊!我喜愛你住宿的殿,

你榮耀居住的地方。

求你不要把我的性命和罪人一同除掉,

也不要把我的生命和流人血的人一起消滅。

10 他們的手中有惡計,

他們的右手充滿賄賂。

11 至於我,我要按正直行事為人,

求你救贖我,恩待我。

12 我的腳站在平坦的地方,

我要在眾會中稱頌耶和華。

Psalm 26

A Psalm of David.

Judge me, O Lord,
    for I have walked in my integrity.
I have trusted in the Lord;
    I will not slip.
Examine me, O Lord, and test me;
    try my affections and my heart.
For Your lovingkindness is before my eyes,
    and I have walked in Your truth.

I have not sat with the worthless,
    nor will I go with hypocrites.
I have hated the congregation of evildoers,
    and will not sit with the wicked.
I will wash my hands in innocence;
    thus I will go around Your altar, O Lord,
that I may proclaim with the voice of thanksgiving,
    and tell of all Your wondrous works.
Lord, I have loved the refuge of Your house,
    and the place where Your honor dwells.
Do not gather my soul with sinners,
    nor my life with murderers,
10 in whose hands is wickedness,
    and their right hand is full of bribes.
11 But as for me, I will walk in my integrity;
    redeem me and be gracious to me.

12 My foot stands in an even place;
    with the congregations I will bless the Lord.

The Prayer of an Innocent Man

Of David.

26 Lord, defend me.
    I have lived an innocent life.
I trusted the Lord and never doubted.
Lord, try me and test me.
    Look closely into my heart and mind.
I see your love.
    I live by your truth.
I do not spend time with liars.
    I do not make friends with people who hide their sin.
I hate the company of evil people.
    I won’t sit with the wicked.
I wash my hands to show I am innocent.
    I come to your altar, Lord.
I raise my voice in praise.
    I tell of all the miracles you have done.
Lord, I love the Temple where you live.
    It is where your greatness is.
Do not kill me with those sinners.
    Do not take my life with those murderers.
10 Evil is in their hands.
    They do wrong for money.
11 But I have lived an innocent life.
    So save me and be kind to me.
12 I stand in a safe place.
    Lord, I praise you in the great meeting.

Psalm 26

Of David.

Vindicate me,(A) Lord,
    for I have led a blameless life;(B)
I have trusted(C) in the Lord
    and have not faltered.(D)
Test me,(E) Lord, and try me,
    examine my heart and my mind;(F)

I do not sit(J) with the deceitful,
    nor do I associate with hypocrites.(K)
I abhor(L) the assembly of evildoers

proclaiming aloud your praise(N)
    and telling of all your wonderful deeds.(O)

Lord, I love(P) the house where you live,
    the place where your glory dwells.(Q)
Do not take away my soul along with sinners,
    my life with those who are bloodthirsty,(R)
10 in whose hands are wicked schemes,(S)
    whose right hands are full of bribes.(T)
11 I lead a blameless life;
    deliver me(U) and be merciful to me.

12 My feet stand on level ground;(V)
    in the great congregation(W) I will praise the Lord.
