26:1  (By David.) Show that I am right, Lord! I stay true to myself, and I have trusted you without doubting.
26:2  Test my thoughts and find out what I am like.
26:3  I never forget your kindness, and I am always faithful to you.
26:4  I don't spend my time with worthless liars
26:5  or go with evil crowds.
26:6  I wash my hands, Lord, to show my innocence, and I worship at your altar,
26:7  while gratefully singing about your wonders.
26:8  I love the temple where you live, and where your glory shines.
26:9  Don't sweep me away, as you do sinners. Don't punish me with death as you do those people who are brutal
26:10  or full of meanness or who bribe others.
26:11  I stay true to myself. Be kind and rescue me.
26:12  Now I stand on solid ground! And when your people meet, I will praise you, Lord.
