Psalms 26
1 Of David. O Lord, be my judge, for my behaviour has been upright: I have put my faith in the Lord, I am not in danger of slipping.
Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Onnejjeereze, Ayi Mukama, kubanga obulamu bwange tebuliiko kya kunenyezebwa; nneesiga ggwe, Ayi Mukama, nga sibuusabuusa.
2 Put me in the scales, O Lord, so that I may be tested; let the fire make clean my thoughts and my heart.
Neetegereza, Ayi Mukama, ongezese; weekalirize ebiri mu mutima gwange ne mu mmeeme yange.
3 For your mercy is before my eyes; and I have gone in the way of your good faith.
Kubanga okwagala kwo kwe kunkulembera, era mu mazima go mwe ntambulira.
4 I have not taken my seat with foolish persons, and I do not go with false men.
Situula na bantu balimba, so siteesaganya na bakuusa.
5 I have been a hater of the band of wrongdoers, and I will not be seated among sinners.
Nkyawa ekibiina ky’aboonoonyi; so situula na bakozi ba bibi.
6 I will make my hands clean from sin; so will I go round your altar, O Lord;
Naaba mu ngalo zange okulaga nga bwe sirina misango; ne ndyoka nzija ku Kyoto kyo, Ayi Mukama;
7 That I may give out the voice of praise, and make public all the wonders which you have done.
ne nnyimba oluyimba olw’okwebaza, olwogera ku bikolwa byo ebyewuunyisa.
8 Lord, your house has been dear to me, and the resting-place of your glory.
Ennyumba yo mw’obeera njagala, Ayi Mukama, kye kifo ekijjudde ekitiibwa kyo.
9 Let not my soul be numbered among sinners, or my life among men of blood;
Tombalira mu boonoonyi, wadde mu batemu,
10 In whose hands are evil designs, and whose right hands take money for judging falsely.
abakozesa emikono gyabwe okutegeka ebikolwa ebibi, era abali b’enguzi.
11 But as for me, I will go on in my upright ways: be my saviour, and have mercy on me.
Naye nze ntambula nga siriiko kye nnenyezebwa; nkwatirwa ekisa, Ayi Mukama, ondokole.
12 I have a safe resting-place for my feet; I will give praise to the Lord in the meetings of the people.
Nnyimiridde watereevu. Nnaatenderezanga Mukama mu kibiina ky’abantu ekinene.
