< Psalms 26 >
1 Of David. Vindicate me, O LORD! For I have walked with integrity; I have trusted in the LORD without wavering.
Abụ Ọma Devid. Onyenwe anyị, biko kpepụta m, nʼihi na ebiela m ndụ zuruoke; atụkwasịrị m Onyenwe anyị obi, na-eleghị anya nʼazụ.
2 Test me, O LORD, and try me; examine my heart and mind.
Tulee m, O Onyenwe anyị, ma nwakwaa m, nyochaa obi m na echiche m.
3 For Your loving devotion is before my eyes, and I have walked in Your truth.
Nʼihi na ejirila m ịhụnanya gị mere ihe nlere anya nye onwe m. Ana m ejegharịkwa nʼime eziokwu gị.
4 I do not sit with deceitful men, nor keep company with hypocrites.
Mụ na ndị na-aghọ aghụghọ adịghị enwe mmekọ ọbụla. Otu a kwa, nnwekọ ọbụla adịghịkwa nʼetiti mụ na ndị ihu abụọ.
5 I hate the mob of evildoers, and refuse to sit with the wicked.
Akpọrọ m otu ndị na-emebi iwu asị. Mụ na ndị ajọ omume agaghị anọkọkwa.
6 I wash my hands in innocence that I may go about Your altar, O LORD,
Ana m asacha aka m abụọ nʼọnọdụ emeghị ihe ọjọọ, na-eje ozi nʼebe ịchụ aja gị ife gị ofufe, o Onyenwe anyị.
7 to raise my voice in thanksgiving and declare all Your wonderful works.
Ana m abụkwa abụ ekele, jiri iti mkpu na-ekwusa otuto gị, na ọrụ ebube gị niile.
8 O LORD, I love the house where You dwell, the place where Your glory resides.
O Onyenwe anyị, ahụrụ m ụlọ obibi gị nʼanya, ụlọ ahụ ebe ebube gị na-adịgide nʼime ya.
9 Do not take my soul away with sinners, or my life with men of bloodshed,
Ebibikọtala mụ na ndị mmehie, ewezugakọtala ndụ m na nke ndị na-awụfu ọbara,
10 in whose hands are wicked schemes, whose right hands are full of bribes.
ndị aka ha jupụtara nʼatụmatụ ọjọọ, aka nri ha jupụtakwara na ngarị.
11 But I will walk with integrity; redeem me and be merciful to me.
Ma mụ onwe m na-ebi ndụ zuruoke; gbapụta m ma meere m ebere.
12 My feet stand on level ground; in the congregations I will bless the LORD.
Ụkwụ m na-eguzo nʼala dị larịị; aga m eto Onyenwe anyị nʼetiti ọha mmadụ.
