THE BOOK OF PSALMS
PSALM 26
David says he has walked in integrity and obedienceHe loves the Lords house.
A Psalm of David.
JUDGE me, O LORD; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have atrusted also in the LORD; therefore I shall not slide.

Examine me, O LORD, and aprove me; try my reins and my heart.

For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth.

I have not sat with avain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers.

I have ahated the congregation of bevil doers; and will not sit with the wicked.

I will awash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O LORD:

That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy awondrous works.

LORD, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine ahonour dwelleth.

Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with abloody men:

In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of abribes.

But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me.

My foot standeth in an even place: in the acongregations will I bless the LORD.
