The Lord’s Holy Habitation and Dwelling Place: Publicly Praise His Presence! — Psalm 26 #2

Psalm 26 NLT

A psalm of David.

¹Declare me innocent, O Lord,
    for I have acted with integrity;
    I have trusted in the Lord without wavering.
²Put me on trial, Lord, and cross-examine me.
    Test my motives and my heart.
³For I am always aware of your unfailing love,
    and I have lived according to your truth.
⁴I do not spend time with liars
    or go along with hypocrites.
⁵I hate the gatherings of those who do evil,
    and I refuse to join in with the wicked.

⁶I wash my hands to declare my innocence.
    I come to your altar, O Lord,
⁷singing a song of thanksgiving
    and telling of all your wonders.
⁸I love your sanctuary, Lord,
    the place where your glorious presence dwells.
Psalm 26:6-8

⁹Don’t let me suffer the fate of sinners.
    Don’t condemn me along with murderers.
¹⁰Their hands are dirty with evil schemes,
    and they constantly take bribes.
¹¹But I am not like that; I live with integrity.
    So redeem me and show me mercy.
¹²Now I stand on solid ground,
    and I will publicly praise the Lord.

Jesus Heals Two Blind Men

²⁹As Jesus and the disciples left the town of Jericho, a large crowd followed behind. ³⁰Two blind men were sitting beside the road. When they heard that Jesus was coming that way, they began shouting, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us!”

³¹“Be quiet!” the crowd yelled at them.

But they only shouted louder, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us!”

³²When Jesus heard them, he stopped and called, “What do you want me to do for you?”

³³“Lord,” they said, “we want to see!”

³⁴Jesus felt sorry for them and touched their eyes. Instantly they could see! Then they followed him.

lowly and riding on a donkey,
    on a colt, the foal of a donkey.

— Zechariah 9:9
