Psalm 26:6

Verse 6 of 12. The 26th of 150 chapters in Psalms, in Poetry and Wisdom.

2Examine me, O Lord, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.

3For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth.

4I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers.

5I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked.

6I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O Lord:

7That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works.

8Lord, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth.

9Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men:

10In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes.
