Psalms 26:10

8 O LORD, I love the house where You dwell, the place where Your glory resides.

9 Do not take my soul away with sinners, or my life with men of bloodshed,

in whose hands are wicked schemes, whose right hands are full of bribes.

11 But I will walk with integrity; redeem me and be merciful to me.

12 My feet stand on level ground; in the congregations I will bless the LORD.

Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
