Psalm 26
New King James Version
A Prayer for Divine Scrutiny and Redemption
A Psalm of David.
26 Vindicate (A)me, O Lord,
For I have (B)walked in my integrity.
(C)I have also trusted in the Lord;
I shall not slip.
2 (D)Examine me, O Lord, and [a]prove me;
Try my mind and my heart.
3 For Your lovingkindness is before my eyes,
And (E)I have walked in Your truth.
4 I have not (F)sat with idolatrous mortals,
Nor will I go in with hypocrites.
5 I have (G)hated the assembly of evildoers,
And will not sit with the wicked.
6 I will wash my hands in innocence;
So I will go about Your altar, O Lord,
7 That I may proclaim with the voice of thanksgiving,
And tell of all Your wondrous works.
8 Lord, (H)I have loved the habitation of Your house,
And the place [b]where Your glory dwells.
9 (I)Do[c] not gather my soul with sinners,
Nor my life with bloodthirsty men,
10 In whose hands is a sinister scheme,
And whose right hand is full of (J)bribes.
11 But as for me, I will walk in my integrity;
Redeem me and be merciful to me.
12 (K)My foot stands in an even place;
In the congregations I will bless the Lord.

Psalm 26
King James Version
26 Judge me, O Lord; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the Lord; therefore I shall not slide.
2 Examine me, O Lord, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.
3 For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth.
4 I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers.
5 I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked.
6 I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O Lord:
7 That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works.
8 Lord, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth.
9 Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men:
10 In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes.
11 But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me.
12 My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the Lord.
Salmo 26
Ang Pulong Sa Dios
Ang Pag-ampo sa Matarong nga Tawo
26 Pamatud-i, Ginoo, nga wala akoy sala,
kay nagakinabuhi ako nga walay ikasaway
ug nagasalig ako kanimo sa walay pagduhaduha.
2 Susiha ako, Ginoo;
susiha ang akong hunahuna ug kasingkasing.
3 Kay kanunay kong ginahinumdoman ang imong gugma,
ug nagakinabuhi ako nga matinumanon kanunay kanimo.
4 Wala ako makig-uban sa mga tawo nga limbongan ug tigpakaaron-ingnon.
5 Supak ako sa mga panagtigom sa daotang mga tawo.
Dili gayod ako makig-uban kanila.
6 Hugasan ko ang akong mga kamot sa pagpaila nga wala akoy sala.
Ug unya, molibot ako sa imong halaran sa pagsimba kanimo, Ginoo,
7 samtang nagaawit ako ug mga awit sa pagpasalamat,
ug nagasaysay sa tanan mong katingalahang mga binuhatan.
8 Ginahigugma ko ang templo nga ginapuy-an mo, Ginoo,
ang dapit diin makita ang imong pagkagamhanan.
9 Ayaw ako laglaga uban sa mga makasasala,
sama sa mga mamumuno.
10 Kanunay silang andam sa paghimo ug daotan ug mahilig sa suborno.
11 Apan ako nagakinabuhi nga maligdong,
busa luwasa ako ug kaloy-i.
12 Karon, layo na ako sa katalagman,[a]
busa dayegon ko ikaw, Ginoo, diha sa panagtigom sa imong mga katawhan.
