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。
耶和华啊,求你察验我,
试炼我,鉴察我的心思意念。
因为我铭记你的慈爱,
我行在你的真理中。
我没有与诡诈者为伍,
没有跟虚伪之人同流。
我憎恨奸恶之辈,
不愿与恶人交往。
耶和华啊,我洗手表明清白,
再走到你的坛前,
高唱感恩之歌,
述说你的一切奇妙作为。
耶和华啊,我爱你的殿,
你荣耀充满的地方。
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

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.
