Psalm 26
ISV Parallel NLT [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
International Standard VersionNew Living Translation
1Vindicate me, LORD, because I have walked in integrity; I have trusted in the LORD without wavering.1Declare me innocent, O LORD, for I have acted with integrity; I have trusted in the LORD without wavering.
2Examine me, LORD, and inspect me! Test my heart and mind. 2Put me on trial, LORD, and cross-examine me. Test my motives and my heart.
3For your gracious love precedes me, and I continuously walk according to your truth.3For I am always aware of your unfailing love, and I have lived according to your truth.
4I do not sit with those committed to what is false, nor do I travel with hypocrites.4I do not spend time with liars or go along with hypocrites.
5I hate the company of those who practice evil, nor do I sit with the wicked.5I hate the gatherings of those who do evil, and I refuse to join in with the wicked.
6I wash my hands innocently. I go around your altar, LORD,6I wash my hands to declare my innocence. I come to your altar, O LORD,
7so I may praise you loudly with thanksgiving and declare all your wondrous acts.7singing a song of thanksgiving and telling of all your wonders.
8LORD, I love the dwelling place that is your house, the place where your glory resides.8I love your sanctuary, LORD, the place where your glorious presence dwells.
9Do not group me with sinners, nor include me with men who shed blood.9Don’t let me suffer the fate of sinners. Don’t condemn me along with murderers.
10Their hands are filled with wicked schemes, and their right hands with bribes.10Their hands are dirty with evil schemes, and they constantly take bribes.
11But as for me, I walk in my integrity. Redeem me and be gracious to me!11But I am not like that; I live with integrity. So redeem me and show me mercy.
12My feet stand on level ground; among the worshiping congregations I will bless the LORD.12Now I stand on solid ground, and I will publicly praise the LORD.
