Masalimo 26
1 Salimo la Davide. Weruzeni Inu Yehova pakuti ndakhala moyo wosalakwa. Ndadalira Yehova popanda kugwedezeka.
A psalm of David. Judge me, Yahweh, for I have walked with integrity; I have trusted in Yahweh without wavering.
2 Patseni mayeso, Inu Yehova ndipo ndiyeseni, santhulani mtima wanga ndi maganizo anga;
Examine me, Yahweh, and test me; test the purity of my inner parts and my heart!
3 pakuti chikondi chanu chili pamaso panga nthawi zonse, ndipo ndimayenda mʼchoonadi chanu nthawi zonse.
For your covenant faithfulness is before my eyes, and I walk about in your faithfulness.
4 Ine sindikhala pansi pamodzi ndi anthu achinyengo, kapena kufunsa nzeru kwa achiphamaso.
I do not associate with deceitful people, nor do I mingle with dishonest people.
5 Ndimanyansidwa ndi msonkhano wa anthu ochita zoyipa ndipo ndimakana kukhala pansi pamodzi ndi oyipa.
I hate the assembly of evildoers, and I do not live with the wicked.
6 Ndimasamba mʼmanja mwanga kuonetsa kusalakwa kwanga ndi kupita kukatumikira pa guwa lanu la nsembe, Inu Yehova,
I wash my hands in innocence, and I go around your altar, Yahweh,
7 kulengeza mofuwula za matamando anu ndi kuwuza onse za ntchito zanu zodabwitsa.
to sing a loud song of praise and report all your wonderful deeds.
8 Ndimakonda Nyumba imene Inu Yehova mumakhalamo, malo amene ulemerero wanu umapezekako.
Yahweh, I love the house where you live, the place where your glory lives!
9 Musachotse moyo wanga pamodzi ndi ochimwa, moyo wanga pamodzi ndi anthu akupha anzawo,
Do not sweep me away with sinners, or my life with people who are bloodthirsty,
10 amene mʼmanja mwawo muli ndondomeko zoyipa, dzanja lawo lamanja ladzaza ndi ziphuphu.
in whose hands there is a plot, and whose right hand is full of bribes.
11 Koma ine ndimakhala moyo wosalakwa; mu msonkhano wa anthu anu ndidzatamanda Yehova.
But as for me, I will walk in integrity; redeem me and have mercy on me.
12 Ndayima pa malo wopanda zovuta ndipo ndidzatamanda Yehova mu msonkhano waukulu.
My foot stands on level ground; in the assemblies will I bless Yahweh!
