Psalms
The Psalter is Israel’s hymnbook: lament, praise, thanksgiving, royal psalms, and wisdom. It trains the heart to speak to God in trouble and in joy, and it points ahead to the Messiah.

Psalms 26
1[A Psalm] of David. Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in my integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; [therefore] I shall not slide. 2Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart. 3For thy loving-kindness [is] before my eyes: and I have walked in thy truth. 4I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers. 5I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked. 6I will wash my hands in innocence: so will I compass thy altar, O LORD: 7That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works. 8LORD, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thy honor dwelleth. 9Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men: 10In whose hands [is] mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes. 11But as for me, I will walk in my integrity: redeem me, and be merciful to me. 12My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the LORD.
