Psalms 26:6 - Psalms 27:3
6 I will wash mine hands in innocency; so will I compass thine altar, O Lord;
7 That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works.
8 Lord, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honor dwelleth.
9 Gather not 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 mine integrity; redeem me, and be merciful unto me.
12 My foot standeth in an even place; in the congregations will I bless the Lord.
Psalms 27
Intro: David sustaineth his faith by prayer. (A Psalm of David.)
1 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?
2 When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.
3 Though a host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; though war should rise against me, in this I am confident.
