Psalms 26-30

Psalms 26

Psa 26:1 A Psalm of David. Judge me, O Lord; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the Lord; therefore I shall not slide.

Psa 26:2 Examine me, O Lord, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.

Psa 26:3 For Thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in Thy truth.

Psa 26:4 I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers.

Psa 26:5 I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked.

Psa 26:6 I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass Thine altar, O Lord:

Psa 26:7 That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all Thy wondrous works.

Psa 26:8 Lord, I have loved the habitation of Thy house, and the place where Thine honour dwelleth.

Psa 26:9 Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men:

Psa 26:10 In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes.

Psa 26:11 But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me.

Psa 26:12 My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the Lord.

Psalms 27

Psa 27:1 A Psalm of David. The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

Psa 27:2 When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.

Psa 27:3 Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.

Psa 27:4 One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to enquire in His temple.

Psa 27:5 For in the time of trouble He shall hide me in His pavilion: in the secret of His tabernacle shall He hide me; He shall set me up upon a rock.

Psa 27:6 And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in His tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the Lord.

Psa 27:7 Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me.

Psa 27:8 When Thou saidst, Seek ye My face; my heart said unto Thee, Thy face, Lord, will I seek.

Psa 27:9 Hide not Thy face far from me; put not Thy servant away in anger: Thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.

Psa 27:10 When my father and my mother forsake me, then the Lord will take me up.

Psa 27:11 Teach me Thy way, O Lord, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies.

Psa 27:12 Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.

Psa 27:13 I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.

Psa 27:14 Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and He shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord.

Psalms 28

Psa 28:1 A Psalm of David. Unto Thee will I cry, O Lord my rock; be not silent to me: lest, if Thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit.

Psa 28:2 Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto Thee, when I lift up my hands toward Thy holy oracle.

Psa 28:3 Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, which speak peace to their neighbours, but mischief is in their hearts.

Psa 28:4 Give them according to their deeds, and according to the wickedness of their endeavours: give them after the work of their hands; render to them their desert.

Psa 28:5 Because they regard not the works of the Lord, nor the operation of His hands, He shall destroy them, and not build them up.

Psa 28:6 Blessed be the Lord, because He hath heard the voice of my supplications.

Psa 28:7 The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in Him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise Him.

Psa 28:9 Save Thy people, and bless Thine in heritance: feed them also, and lift them up for ever.
