De pie en la fe ante el Juez Justo
En el Salmo 26, la fe no es una confianza ciega en uno mismo, sino una confianza fundamentada en el amor inquebrantable de Dios, acompañada de una conducta intachable.
Of David.Vindicate me, O ETERNAL One,for I have walked without blame;I have trusted in GOD;I have not faltered. Probe me, O ETERNAL One, and try me,test my heart and mind; for my eyes are on Your steadfast love;I have set my course by it. I do not consort with scoundrels,or mix with hypocrites; I detest the company of evildoers,and do not consort with the wicked; I wash my hands in innocence,and walk around Your altar, O ETERNAL One, raising my voice in thanksgiving,and telling all Your wonders. O ETERNAL One, I love Your temple abode,the dwelling-place of Your glory. Do not sweep me away with sinners,or [snuff out] my life with murderers, who have schemes at their fingertips,and hands full of bribes. But I walk without blame;redeem me, have mercy on me! My feet are on level ground.In assemblies I will bless GOD.
Psalm 26:1–12 — David's integrité prayer, in which he asks the LORD to vindicate him because he has 'walked without blame,' has 'trusted in GOD,' and keeps his eyes fixed on God's steadfast love.
