Psalmi 26

1 Davidov. Dosudi mi pravo, Jahve, jer hodih u nedužnosti, i uzdajuć' se u Jahvu ja se ne pokolebah.

Yahweh, show that I (am innocent/have not done what is wrong). I always do what is right; I have trusted in you and never doubted [that you would help me].

2 Ispitaj me, Jahve, iskušaj me, istraži mi bubrege i srce.

Yahweh, examine what I have done and test me; thoroughly evaluate what I think [IDM].

3 Jer tvoja je dobrota pred očima mojim, u istini tvojoj ja hodim.

I never forget that you faithfully love me, I conduct my life according to your truth.

4 S ljudima opakim ja ne sjedim i ne svraćam podlima.

I do not spend my time with liars and I stay away from hypocrites.

5 Mrsko mi je društvo zlotvora, i s bezbošcima sjesti ne želim.

I do not like to be with evil people, and I avoid wicked people.

6 U nedužnosti ruke svoje perem i obilazim žrtvenik tvoj, Jahve,

Yahweh, I wash my hands to show that I (am innocent/have not done what was wrong). As I join with others marching around your altar,

7 da tvoju hvalu javno razglasim i pripovijedam sva divna djela tvoja.

we sing songs to thank you, and we tell others the wonderful things that you [have done].

8 O Jahve, ljubim dom u kojem prebivaš i mjesto gdje slava tvoja stoluje.

Yahweh, I love [to be in] the temple where you live, in the place where your glory appears.

9 Ne pogubi mi dušu s grešnicima ni život moj s krvolocima;

Do not get rid of me like you get rid of sinners; do not cause me to die like you cause those who murder [MTY] people to die,

10 na rukama je njihovim zločin, a desnica im puna mita.

and people who [SYN] are ready to do wicked things and people who are always taking bribes.

11 A ja u nedužnosti svojoj hodim: izbavi me, milostiv mi budi.

But as for me, I always try to do what is right. So be kind to me and rescue me.

12 Noga mi stoji na pravu putu: u zborovima blagoslivljat ću Jahvu.

I stand in places where I am safe, and when [all your people] gather together, I praise you.
