Zaburi 26

1 Zaburi mar Daudi. Ngʼadna bura makare, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, nikech e ngimana duto asedak ka aonge ketho; aseketo genona kuom Jehova Nyasaye ma ok adigni.

Of David. Vindicate me, O LORD! For I have walked with integrity; I have trusted in the LORD without wavering.

2 Nona kendo itema, yaye Jehova Nyasaye nonie chunya gi pacha;

Test me, O LORD, and try me; examine my heart and mind.

3 nikech herani osiko kanie chunya kinde duto, kendo asiko kawuotho e adierani.

For Your loving devotion is before my eyes, and I have walked in Your truth.

4 Ok abed piny gi joma wuondore bende ok ariwra gi jo-miriambo.

I do not sit with deceitful men, nor keep company with hypocrites.

5 Achayo chokruok mar joma timo gik maricho kendo ok ayie bet piny gi joricho.

I hate the mob of evildoers, and refuse to sit with the wicked.

6 Aluoko lwetena kanyisogo ni aonge ketho, kendo aluoro kendoni mar misango, yaye Jehova Nyasaye,

I wash my hands in innocence that I may go about Your altar, O LORD,

7 ka alando pakni gi dwol maduongʼ, kendo anyiso timbeni duto miwuoro.

to raise my voice in thanksgiving and declare all Your wonderful works.

8 Ahero hekalu kama idakie, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, kama duongʼni nitie.

O LORD, I love the house where You dwell, the place where Your glory resides.

9 Kik ikaw chunya kaachiel gi joricho, kik ikaw ngimana kod joma ohero chwero remo,

Do not take my soul away with sinners, or my life with men of bloodshed,

10 joma lwetegi otingʼo chenro maricho ma lwetegi ma korachwich asoya opongʼo.

in whose hands are wicked schemes, whose right hands are full of bribes.

11 An to ngimana onge ketho; yie iwara kendo ikecha.

But I will walk with integrity; redeem me and be merciful to me.

12 Tiendena onyono kama opie; e chokruok mangʼongo abiro pako Jehova Nyasaye.

My feet stand on level ground; in the congregations I will bless the LORD.
