Psalm 26תהלים כ״ו

לְדָוִ֨ד שָׁפְטֵ֤נִי יְקוָ֗ק כִּֽי־אֲ֭נִי בְּתֻמִּ֣י הָלַ֑כְתִּי וּבַיקוָ֥ק בָּ֝טַ֗חְתִּי לֹ֣א אֶמְעָֽד׃

[A Psalm] of David. Judge me, O LORD, for I have walked in mine integrity, and I have trusted in the LORD without wavering.

בְּחָנֵ֣נִי יְקוָ֣ק וְנַסֵּ֑נִי צרופה^{צָרְפָ֖ה} כִלְיוֹתַ֣י וְלִבִּֽי׃

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

כִּֽי־חַ֭סְדְּךָ לְנֶ֣גֶד עֵינָ֑י וְ֝הִתְהַלַּ֗כְתִּי בַּאֲמִתֶּֽךָ׃

For Thy mercy is before mine eyes; and I have walked in Thy truth.

לֹא־יָ֭שַׁבְתִּי עִם־מְתֵי־שָׁ֑וְא וְעִ֥ם נַ֝עֲלָמִ֗ים לֹ֣א אָבֽוֹא׃

I have not sat with men of falsehood; neither will I go in with dissemblers.

שָׂ֭נֵאתִי קְהַ֣ל מְרֵעִ֑ים וְעִם־רְ֝שָׁעִ֗ים לֹ֣א אֵשֵֽׁב׃

I hate the gathering of evil doers, and will not sit with the wicked.

אֶרְחַ֣ץ בְּנִקָּי֣וֹן כַּפָּ֑י וַאֲסֹבְבָ֖ה אֶת־מִזְבַּחֲךָ֣ יְקוָֽק׃

I will wash my hands in innocency; so will I compass Thine altar, O LORD,

לַ֭שְׁמִעַ בְּק֣וֹל תּוֹדָ֑ה וּ֝לְסַפֵּ֗ר כָּל־נִפְלְאוֹתֶֽיךָ׃

That I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard, and tell of all Thy wondrous works.

יְֽקוָ֗ק אָ֭הַבְתִּי מְע֣וֹן בֵּיתֶ֑ךָ וּ֝מְק֗וֹם מִשְׁכַּ֥ן כְּבוֹדֶֽךָ׃

LORD, I love the habitation of Thy house, and the place where Thy glory dwelleth.

אַל־תֶּאֱסֹ֣ף עִם־חַטָּאִ֣ים נַפְשִׁ֑י וְעִם־אַנְשֵׁ֖י דָמִ֣ים חַיָּֽי׃

Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with men of blood;

אֲשֶׁר־בִּידֵיהֶ֥ם זִמָּ֑ה וִֽ֝ימִינָ֗ם מָ֣לְאָה שֹּֽׁחַד׃

In whose hands is craftiness, and their right hand is full of bribes.

וַ֭אֲנִי בְּתֻמִּ֥י אֵלֵ֗ךְ פְּדֵ֣נִי וְחָנֵּֽנִי׃

But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity; Redeem me, and be gracious unto me.

רַ֭גְלִי עָֽמְדָ֣ה בְמִישׁ֑וֹר בְּ֝מַקְהֵלִ֗ים אֲבָרֵ֥ךְ יְקוָֽק׃

My foot standeth in an even place; in the congregations will I bless the LORD.
