Psalms 26

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

S ljudima opakim ja ne sjedim i ne svraćam podlima.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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