{א} לְדָוִד שָׁפְטֵנִי יְהוָה כִּי אֲנִי בְּתֻמִּי הָלַכְתִּי וּבַיהוָה בָּטַחְתִּי לֹא אֶמְעָד:
{ב} בְּחָנֵנִי יְהוָה וְנַסֵּנִי (צרופה) צָרְפָה כִלְיוֹתַי וְלִבִּי:
{ג} כִּי חַסְדְּךָ לְנֶגֶד עֵינָי וְהִתְהַלַּכְתִּי בַּאֲמִתֶּךָ:
{ד} לֹא יָשַׁבְתִּי עִם מְתֵי שָׁוְא וְעִם נַעֲלָמִים לֹא אָבוֹא:
{ה} שָׂנֵאתִי קְהַל מְרֵעִים וְעִם רְשָׁעִים לֹא אֵשֵׁב:
{ו} אֶרְחַץ בְּנִקָּיוֹן כַּפָּי וַאֲסֹבְבָה אֶת מִזְבַּחֲךָ יְהוָה:
{ז} לַשְׁמִעַ בְּקוֹל תּוֹדָה וּלְסַפֵּר כָּל נִפְלְאוֹתֶיךָ:
{ח} יְהוָה אָהַבְתִּי מְעוֹן בֵּיתֶךָ וּמְקוֹם מִשְׁכַּן כְּבוֹדֶךָ:
{ט} אַל תֶּאֱסֹף עִם חַטָּאִים נַפְשִׁי וְעִם אַנְשֵׁי דָמִים חַיָּי:
{י} אֲשֶׁר בִּידֵיהֶם זִמָּה וִימִינָם מָלְאָה שֹּׁחַד:
{יא} וַאֲנִי בְּתֻמִּי אֵלֵךְ פְּדֵנִי וְחָנֵּנִי:
{יב} רַגְלִי עָמְדָה בְמִישׁוֹר בְּמַקְהֵלִים אֲבָרֵךְ יְהוָה:

{א} לְדָוִ֨ד ׀ שָׁפְטֵ֤נִי יְהוָ֗ה כִּֽי־אֲ֭נִי בְּתֻמִּ֣י הָלַ֑כְתִּי וּבַיהוָ֥ה בָּ֝טַ֗חְתִּי לֹ֣א אֶמְעָֽד׃

Tehillim 26 : Transliteration

Ledavid, shoftêni Adonai ki ani betumi haláchti, uvadonai batáchti lo em’ad
Bechanêni Adonai venassêni, tsarfa chiliotai velibi
Ki chasdechá lenégued enai, vehit’haláchti baamitêcha
Lo iashavti im metê shav, veim naalamim lo avo
Sanêti kehal mereim, veim reshaim lo eshev
Erchats benicaion capai, vaassovevá et mizbachacha Adonai
Lashmía becol todá, ulessaper col nifleotêcha
Adonai ahavti meon betêcha, umecom mishcan kevodêcha
Al teessof im chataim nafshi, veim anshê damim chaiai
Asher bidehem zima, viminam maleá shôchad
Vaani betumi elech, pedêni vechonêni
Ragli ameda vemishor, bemac’helim avarech Adonai

Tehillim 26 - Tehillim translated into english

1. A Psalm of David. Judge me, O Lord; for I have walked in my integrity; I have trusted in the Lord; therefore I shall not slip.
2. Examine me, O Lord, and test me; test my insides and my heart.
3. For your loving kindness is before my eyes; and I have walked in your truth.
4. I have not sat with vain persons, nor do I enter the company of dissemblers.
5. I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and do not sit with the wicked.
6. I wash my hands in innocency; so will I go around your altar, O Lord!
7. That I may sound the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all your wondrous works.
8. Lord, I love the habitation of your house, and the place where your glory dwells.
9. Do not gather 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 my integrity; redeem me, and be merciful to me.
12. My foot stands on an even place; in the congregations I will bless the Lord.
