< Saam 26 >

1 David ih Saam laa. Aw Angraeng, toenghaih ka pazui pongah, ka toenghaih baktiah lok takroek ah: Angraeng to ka oep pongah, kam thaek mak ai.
By David. Judge me, O Jehovah, for I in mine integrity have walked, And in Jehovah I have trusted, I slide not.
2 Aw Angraeng, ka poekhaih hoi palungthin hae khen ah loe, caek tanoek ah.
Try me, O Jehovah, and prove me, Purified [are] my reins and my heart.
3 Nam lunghaih ka hmaa ah oh poe pongah, na loktang lok ah ka caeh.
For Thy kindness [is] before mine eyes, And I have walked habitually in Thy truth.
4 Avang ai kaminawk hoi nawnto kang hnu ai moe, angsah thaih kaminawk hoi doeh nawnto ka caeh vai ai.
I have not sat with vain men, And with dissemblers I enter not.
5 Kasae sah kaminawk amkhuenghaih to ka panuet, kasae kaminawk hoi nawnto kang hnu mak ai.
I have hated the assembly of evil doers, And with the wicked I sit not.
6 Aw Angraeng, zaehaih om ai ah ban kam saeh moe, na hmaicam to ka ven han:
I wash in innocency my hands, And I compass Thine altar, O Jehovah.
7 anghoehaih lok to ka thuih moe, anghmang thok na toksakhaihnawk boih to ka thuih han.
To sound with a voice of confession, And to recount all Thy wonders.
8 Aw Angraeng, na im ohhaih ahmuen, na lensawk amtuenghaih ahmuen to ka koeh.
Jehovah, I have loved the habitation of Thy house, And the place of the tabernacle of Thine honour.
9 Ka pakhra hae kazae kaminawk hoi nawnto suem hmah loe, ka hinghaih doeh athii anghae kaminawk hoi nawnto suem hmah:
Do not gather with sinners my soul, And with men of blood my life,
10 nihcae ih ban loe kasae sakhaih kop o moe, a bantang bannawk loe bokhaih hmuen hoiah koi.
In whose hand [is] a wicked device, And their right hand [is] full of bribes.
11 Toe kai loe toenghaih loklam to pazui pongah, na krang ah loe, na tahmen ah.
And I, in mine integrity I walk, Redeem me, and favour me.
12 Ka khok hae kadue ahmuen ah angdoe ueloe, rangpui amkhuenghaih ahmuen ah Angraeng to tahamhoihaih ka paek han.
My foot hath stood in uprightness, In assemblies I bless Jehovah!
