Sam 26
1 Kathutkung: Devit BAWIPA, nang ni kai lawk na ceng haw, lungcaknae hoi ka cei teh BAWIPA nang na kâuep dawkvah ka kâhuen mahoeh.
A Psalme of David. Judge me, O Lord, for I haue walked in mine innocency: my trust hath bene also in the Lord: therefore shall I not slide.
2 Kai hah na noumcai nateh, oe BAWIPA, ka lung ni a ngai e naw hoi ka pouknae hah na khen pouh haw.
Proue me, O Lord, and trie mee: examine my reines, and mine heart.
3 Ka cak e na lungpatawnae lamthung kai na patue haw, yuemkamcunae ni pou na hrawi.
For thy louing kindnesse is before mine eyes: therefore haue I walked in thy trueth.
4 Dumyennae hoi cungtalah ka hmawng hoeh. Tami kahawihoehnaw hai ka hmawng hoeh.
I haue not hanted with vaine persons, neither kept companie with the dissemblers.
5 Tami kahawihoehnaw e kamkhuengnae hah ka hmuhma, Tamikathoutnaw hoi reirei ka tahung hoeh.
I haue hated the assemblie of the euill, and haue not companied with the wicked.
6 Ka kut heh thoungnae hoi ka pâsu teh BAWIPA namae thuengnae ka lawngven.
I will wash mine handes in innocencie, O Lord, and compasse thine altar,
7 Lunghawilawkdeinae la ka sak teh kângairu hno na sak e hah ka dei.
That I may declare with the voyce of thankesgiuing, and set foorth all thy wonderous woorkes.
8 BAWIPA na onae im hah kai lungpataw teh na bawilennae hmuen hah kai ni ka ngai.
O Lord, I haue loued the habitation of thine house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth.
9 Tamikayonnaw koe kai mek thei sin hanlah tami kathetnaw koe kai na tâkhawng sin hanh.
Gather not my soule with the sinners, nor my life with the bloodie men:
10 Ahnimouh teh hawihoehnae yungyoe a sak awh. Tadawnghno ka ngai e taminaw doeh.
In whose handes is wickednes, and their right hand is full of bribes.
11 Kai teh hnokahawi hoeh e ka sak, na pahren nateh na rungngang haw.
But I will walke in mine innocencie: redeeme me therefore, and be mercifull vnto me.
12 Hnâroumcalah tanghling dawk ka kangdue teh maya a kamkhuengnae koe BAWIPA nang na pholen.
My foote standeth in vprightnesse: I will praise thee, O Lord, in the Congregations.
