Psalms 26:4-12
-
4 I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers.
-
5 I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked.
-
6 I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O LORD:
-
7 That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works.
-
8 LORD, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth.
-
9 Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men:
-
10 In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes.
-
11 But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me.
-
12 My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the LORD.
