Tingtoeng 26

1 David kah Aw BOEIPA, kai he lai han tloek lah. Thincaknah neh ka cet tih BOEIPA te ka pangtung dongah ka dinghae pawh.

Unto the end, a psalm for David. Judge me, O Lord, for I have walked in my innocence: and I have put my trust in the Lord, and shall not be weakened.

2 Aw BOEIPA kai he n'loepdak lamtah kai n'noemcai lah. Ka kuel neh lungbuei he picai la picai mai.

Prove me, O Lord, and try me; burn my reins and my heart.

3 Ka mik dongah na sitlohnah ka hmaitang tih na oltak dongah ka cet.

For thy mercy is before my eyes; and I am well pleased with thy truth.

4 Hlang taengah a poeyoek la ka ngol pawt tih aka thuhrhawk neh ka yok pawh.

I have not sat with the council of vanity: neither will I go in with the doers of unjust things.

5 Thaehuet rhoek kah a ngolhlung te ka thiinah tih halang rhoek taengah ka ngol pawh.

I have hated the assembly of the malignant; and with the wicked I will not sit.

6 Ka kut he cimnah neh ka silh tih, BOEIPA nang kah hmueihtuk te ka hil he,

I will wash my hands among the innocent; and will compass thy altar, O Lord:

7 Uemonah ol te ka doek tih namah kah khobaerhambae boeih te ka tae.

That I may hear the voice of thy praise: and tell of all thy wondrous works.

8 Aw BOEIPA, na lum-im khuirhung neh na thangpomnah dungtlungim hmuen te ka lungnah.

I have loved, O Lord, the beauty of thy house; and the place where thy glory dwelleth.

9 Ka hinglu he hlangtholh rhoek neh, ka hingnah he thii aka hal hlang rhoek taengla coi boeh.

Take not away my soul, O God, with the wicked: nor my life with bloody men:

10 Amih kut dongah boethae om tih a bantang kut ah kapbaih a poem uh.

In whose hands are iniquities: their right hand is filled with gifts.

11 Tedae kai tah kamah thincaknah neh ka cet. Kai n'lat lamtah kai n'rhen lah.

But as for me, I have walked in my innocence: redeem me, and have mercy on me.

12 Ka kho he tlangkol ah pai tih khangkhung lakli ah BOEIPA te a yoethen pai ni.

My foot hath stood in the direct way: in the churches I will bless thee, O Lord.
