Psalms 26

1 Judge me, O Jehovah, for I have walked in my integrity. I have also trusted in Jehovah without wavering.

Nzembo ya Davidi. Yawe, longisa ngai na miso ya basambisi, pamba te natambolaka na bosembo; natielaka Yawe motema, nakozonga sima te.

2 Examine me, O Jehovah, and prove me. Try my heart and my mind.

Yawe, tala ngai malamu mpe meka ngai, sosola motema mpe makanisi na ngai,

3 For thy loving kindness is before my eyes, and I have walked in thy truth.

pamba te napengwaka te liboso ya bolingo na Yo mpe nabikaka bomoi na ngai kolanda bosembo na Yo.

4 I have not sat with men of falsehood, nor will I go in with dissemblers.

Navandaka esika moko te na bakosi, natambolaka nzela moko te na bato ya mitema mibale.

5 I hate the assembly of evildoers, and will not sit with the wicked.

Nayinaka kosangana elongo na bato ya misala mabe mpe navandaka te esika moko na bato mabe.

6 I will wash my hands in innocence, so I will encompass thine altar, O Jehovah,

Yawe, nasukoli maboko na ngai mpo na kolakisa ete nasali mabe te, mpe nabandi na etumbelo na Yo,

7 that I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard, and tell of all thy wondrous works.

mpo na kozongisela Yo matondi mpe kotatola misala minene na Yo.

8 Jehovah, I love the habitation of thy house, and the place where thy glory dwells.

Yawe, nasepelaka na Tempelo epai wapi ovandaka elongo na nkembo na Yo.

9 Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with men of blood,

Kolongola te molimo na ngai nzela moko na bato ya masumu, bomoi na ngai elongo na basopi makila,

10 in whose hands is wickedness, and their right hand is full of bribes.

oyo maboko na bango etondi na makila, mpe maboko na bango ya mibali etondi na kanyaka.

11 But as for me, I will walk in my integrity. Redeem me, and be merciful to me.

Natambolaka na bomoi ya bosembo; kangola ngai mpe salela ngai ngolu.

12 My foot stands in an even place. In the congregations I will bless Jehovah.

Makolo na ngai etambolaka na nzela ya alima; nakopambola Yawe kati na mayangani ya monene.
