The King James Version Bible

Psalms 26:4-12

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

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

  3. I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O LORD:

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

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

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

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

  8. But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me.

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