Psalms 26:4 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 26:4

2 ^aExamine me, O Lord, and¹ prove me;
Try my mind and my heart.

3 For Your lovingkindness is before my eyes,
And ^aI have walked in Your truth.

4 I have not ^asat with idolatrous mortals,
Nor will I go in with hypocrites.

5 I have ^ahated the assembly of evildoers,
And will not sit with the wicked.

6 I will wash my hands in innocence;
So I will go about Your altar, O Lord,

7 That I may proclaim with the voice of thanksgiving,
And tell of all Your wondrous works.

8 Lord, ^aI have loved the habitation of Your house,
And the place¹ where Your glory dwells.

9 ^aDo¹ not gather my soul with sinners,
Nor my life with bloodthirsty men,

10 In whose hands is a sinister scheme,
And whose right hand is full of ^abribes.

11 But as for me, I will walk in my integrity;
Redeem me and be merciful to me.

12 ^aMy foot stands in an even place;
In the congregations I will bless the Lord.
