Book - Psalms - Chapter = 26 --> NLT
-
Declare me innocent, O LORD, for I have acted with integrity; I have trusted in the LORD without wavering.
-
Put me on trial, LORD, and cross-examine me. Test my motives and affections.
-
For I am constantly aware of your unfailing love, and I have lived according to your truth.
-
I do not spend time with liars or go along with hypocrites.
-
I hate the gatherings of those who do evil, and I refuse to join in with the wicked.
-
I wash my hands to declare my innocence. I come to your altar, O LORD,
-
singing a song of thanksgiving and telling of all your miracles.
-
I love your sanctuary, LORD, the place where your glory shines.
-
Don't let me suffer the fate of sinners. Don't condemn me along with murderers.
-
Their hands are dirty with wicked schemes, and they constantly take bribes.
-
But I am not like that; I do what is right. So in your mercy, save me.
-
I have taken a stand, and I will publicly praise the LORD.
