Salmos 26
Dios Habla Hoy
La seguridad de una vida limpia
(1a) De David.
26 (1b) Señor, hazme justicia,
pues mi vida no tiene tacha.
En ti, Señor, confío firmemente;
2 examíname, ¡ponme a prueba!,
¡pon a prueba mis pensamientos
y mis sentimientos más profundos!
3 Yo tengo presente tu amor
y te he sido fiel;
4 jamás conviví con los mentirosos
ni me junté con los hipócritas.
5 Odio las reuniones de los malvados;
¡jamás conviví con los perversos!
6 Lavadas ya mis manos y limpias de pecado,
quiero, Señor, acercarme a tu altar,
7 y entonar cantos de alabanza,
y proclamar tus maravillas.
8 Yo amo, Señor, el templo donde vives,
el lugar donde reside tu gloria.
9 No me quites la vida junto con los pecadores;
no me hagas correr la suerte de los asesinos,
10 de esos que tienen las manos
llenas de maldad y soborno.
11 Pero mi vida es intachable;
¡sálvame, ten compasión de mí!
12 Mis pies están en terreno firme;
¡bendeciré al Señor en presencia de su pueblo!
Psalm 26
English Standard Version
I Will Bless the Lord
Of David.
26 (A)Vindicate me, O Lord,
for I have (B)walked in my integrity,
and I have (C)trusted in the Lord without wavering.
2 (D)Prove me, O Lord, and try me;
test my heart and (E)my mind.[a]
3 For your (F)steadfast love is before my eyes,
and I (G)walk in your (H)faithfulness.
4 I do not (I)sit with men of (J)falsehood,
nor do I consort with hypocrites.
5 I (K)hate the assembly of evildoers,
and I will not sit with the wicked.
6 I (L)wash my hands in innocence
and go around your altar, O Lord,
7 proclaiming thanksgiving aloud,
and telling all your (M)wondrous deeds.
8 O Lord, I (N)love the habitation of your house
and the place where your glory dwells.
9 (O)Do not sweep my soul away with sinners,
nor my life with bloodthirsty men,
10 in whose hands are evil devices,
and whose right hands are full of (P)bribes.
11 But as for me, I shall walk in my integrity;
redeem me, and be gracious to me.
12 My foot stands on (Q)level ground;
in (R)the great assembly I will bless the Lord.
