Psalms 26:1-5

¹A psalm of David. Confirm that I'm innocent, Lord, for I have acted with integrity, and I have trusted in the Lord without fail.

²Examine me, Lord, test me; investigate my thoughts and intentions.

³For I always remember your trustworthy love, and I follow your truth.

⁴I don't join in with liars and I don't associate with hypocrites.

⁵I refuse to get together with those who do evil, and I won't involve myself with the wicked.
