Psalm 26

The LORD Reigns (93)

`Vindicate me, LORD, for I have walked in my in / tegrity.

`I have trusted in the LORD without_ / wavering.

Ex `amine me_, LORD, and / test~ me.

`Try my heart_ / and my mind.

`For your loving kindness / guides~ me.

`I have walked_ / in your truth.

I `have not sat with / the deceitful,

`neither do I go in with_ / hypocrites.

(Ref)

`I hate the assembly of_ / evildoers,

and `will not sit_ / with the wicked.

`I will wash my hands in / innocence,

so `I will go about your / altar, LORD,

that `I may make the voice_ of thanksgiving / to be heard

and `tell of all your / wondrous deeds.

`LORD, I love the house_ / where you dwell,

the `place_ where your glory / re~ sides.

Do `not sweep me a / way with sinners,

`nor my life_ with the / bloodthirsty,

`in whose hands is / wickedness,

`whose right hands are / full of bribes. 

(Ref)

But `as for me_, I will walk in my in / tegrity.

Re `deem me, and be merci / ful to me.

`My foot stands on / level ground.

`In the great assembly I will / bless the LORD.
