Psalm 26-27
Christian Standard Bible
Psalm 26
Prayer for Vindication
Of David.
1 Vindicate me, Lord,
because I have lived with integrity
and have trusted in the Lord without wavering.(A)
2 Test me, Lord, and try me;
examine my heart and mind.(B)
3 For your faithful love guides me,[a]
and I live by your truth.(C)
4 I do not sit with the worthless
or associate with hypocrites.
5 I hate a crowd of evildoers,
and I do not sit with the wicked.(D)
6 I wash my hands in innocence(E)
and go around your altar, Lord,(F)
7 raising my voice in thanksgiving(G)
and telling about your wondrous works.(H)
8 Lord, I love the house where you dwell,
the place where your glory resides.(I)
9 Do not destroy me along with sinners,
or my life along with men of bloodshed(J)
10 in whose hands are evil schemes
and whose right hands are filled with bribes.(K)
11 But I live with integrity;
redeem me and be gracious to me.(L)
12 My foot stands on level ground;(M)
I will bless the Lord in the assemblies.(N)
Psalm 27
My Stronghold
Of David.
1 The Lord is my light and my salvation—
whom should I fear?(O)
The Lord is the stronghold of my life—
whom should I dread?(P)
2 When evildoers came against me to devour my flesh,(Q)
my foes and my enemies stumbled and fell.(R)
3 Though an army deploys against me,
my heart will not be afraid;
though a war breaks out against me,
I will still be confident.(S)
4 I have asked one thing from the Lord;
it is what I desire:
to dwell in the house of the Lord
all the days of my life,(T)
gazing on the beauty of the Lord(U)
and seeking him in his temple.(V)
5 For he will conceal me in his shelter
in the day of adversity;
he will hide me under the cover of his tent;
he will set me high on a rock.(W)
6 Then my head will be high
above my enemies around me;(X)
I will offer sacrifices in his tent with shouts of joy.(Y)
I will sing and make music to the Lord.(Z)
7 Lord, hear my voice when I call;
be gracious to me and answer me.(AA)
8 My heart says this about you:
“Seek[b] his face.”
Lord, I will seek your face.(AB)
9 Do not hide your face from me;(AC)
do not turn your servant away in anger.(AD)
You have been my helper;(AE)
do not leave me or abandon me,
God of my salvation.
10 Even if my father and mother abandon me,
the Lord cares for me.(AF)
11 Because of my adversaries,
show me your way, Lord,
and lead me on a level path.(AG)
12 Do not give me over to the will of my foes,
for false witnesses rise up against me,
breathing violence.(AH)
