Psalm 26:3–8

3 For your faithful love guides me,C

and I live by your truth.g

4 I do not sit with the worthless

or associate with hypocrites.

5 I hate a crowd of evildoers,

and I do not sit with the wicked.h

6 I wash my hands in innocencei

and go around your altar, Lord,j

7 raising my voice in thanksgivingk

and telling about your wondrous works.l

8 Lord, I love the house where you dwell,

the place where your glory resides.m
