Psalm 26:1-12 CEV

[1] Show that I am right, LORD! I stay true to myself, and I have trusted you without doubting. [2] Test my thoughts and find out what I am like. [3] I never forget your kindness, and I am always faithful to you. [4] I don't spend my time with worthless liars [5] or go with evil crowds. [6] I wash my hands, LORD, to show my innocence, and I worship at your altar, [7] while gratefully singing about your wonders. [8] I love the temple where you live, and where your glory shines. [9] Don't sweep me away, as you do sinners. Don't punish me with death as you do those people who are brutal [10] or full of meanness or who bribe others. [11] I stay true to myself. Be kind and rescue me. [12] Now I stand on solid ground! And when your people meet, I will praise you, LORD.
