Psalm 26
Psalm 26 (New International Version, ©2011)
Psalm 26
Of David. 1 Vindicate me, LORD,for I have led a blameless life;
I have trusted in the LORD
and have not faltered.
2 Test me, LORD, and try me,
examine my heart and my mind;
3 for I have always been mindful of your unfailing love
and have lived in reliance on your faithfulness.
4 I do not sit with the deceitful,
nor do I associate with hypocrites.
5 I abhor the assembly of evildoers
and refuse to sit with the wicked.
6 I wash my hands in innocence,
and go about your altar, LORD,
7 proclaiming aloud your praise
and telling of all your wonderful deeds.
8 LORD, I love the house where you live,
the place where your glory dwells.
9 Do not take away my soul along with sinners,
my life with those who are bloodthirsty,
10 in whose hands are wicked schemes,
whose right hands are full of bribes.
11 I lead a blameless life;
deliver me and be merciful to me.
12 My feet stand on level ground;
in the great congregation I will praise the LORD.
A note from our friend Pat
Did you know that the word LISTEN and SILENT use the same letters? If we want to hear from God, we need to be silent and listen. When we wait to hear that still small voice, we will be guided by the Spirit of God Himself. Many times we cannot hear God's voice, because we have too much noise in our lives.
