[ Read](/kjv/psalms/26)[ Commentary](/study/psalms/26)[ Interlinear](/interlinear/psalms/26) Audio

 1 Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; *therefore* I shall not slide.

 2 Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.

 3 For thy lovingkindness *is* before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth.

 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.
 
[Psalms 25](/study/psalms/25) [Psalms 27](/study/psalms/27)

## Commentary

 To verse 1
 
**Judge me,**i.e. plead my cause, or give sentence for me; as this phrase is commonly used, as [Psalms 10:18](/kjv/psalms/10/18); [Psalms 43:1](/kjv/psalms/43/1); [Psalms 72:4](/kjv/psalms/72/4); [Isaiah 1:17](/kjv/isaiah/1/17). I can obtain no right from men. The supreme and subordinate magistrates are mine implacable and resolved enemies. Do thou therefore do me justice against them, 

**for I have walked in mine integrity;**though they accuse me of many crimes, they can prove none of them, and thou and mine own conscience, and theirs too, are witnesses for me, that my carriage towards them hath been innocent and unblamable. I have committed my cause and affairs to thee, as to a just Judge and merciful Father, and my hope and trust is fixed upon thee alone; therefore thou wilt not deceive my trust, but will uphold me against all mine enemies; for thou hast promised to save those that trust in thee. Or, that 

**I shall not slide** or *fall*. So this declares the matter of his trust.
