Psalms 26
1 [A Psalm] of David. Judge me, O Lord; for I have walked in my innocence: and hoping in the Lord I shall not be moved.
Aw Bawipa, ak thym na awi ni deng lah; coet a kap kaana khaw ka sak a dawngawh; kaw cak doena ni Bawipa ce ka ypnaak.
2 Prove me, O Lord, and try me; purify as with fire my reins and my heart.
Aw Bawipa, ni noekdak nawh, ni nai plak plak lah, kam thin ka kyl ve ni silh pe lah.
3 For your mercy is before mine eyes: and I am well pleased with your truth.
Na lungnaak ve ka haiawh awm poepa nawh, nak awitak awh ka ceh poepa a dawngawh.
4 I have not sat with the council of vanity, and will in nowise enter in with transgressors.
Qaai ak kqawn thlang mi am ngawi haih man nyng saw, ak hoel qu thlangkhqi ing am pyi qu man nih nyng.
5 I have hated the assembly of wicked doers; and will not sit with ungodly [men].
Ik-oeih che ak saikhqi ang cunnaak ce tyih nyng saw thlak chekhqi ing ngawih haih aham awm tha na nyng.
6 I will wash my hands in innocency, and compass your altar, O Lord:
Coet kap kaana kut ve sil nyng saw, Bawipa na bawkthang a kengsam awh cet vang.
7 to hear the voice of praise, and to declare all your wonderful works.
Namah kyihcahnaak ce khawteh na khypyi nyng saw kawpoek kyi ik-oeih na saikhqi boeih ce kqawn vang.
8 O Lord, I have loved the beauty of your house, and the place of the tabernacle of your glory.
Aw Bawipa, na awmnaak im, na boeimang a awmnaak hun ce thin tlawh na nyng.
9 Destroy not my soul together with the ungodly, nor my life with bloody men:
Ka hqingnaak ve, thlak thawlhkhqi, thlang a thi ak ngaihkhqi mi koeh lawh sih.
10 in whose hands [are] iniquities, [and] their right hand is filled with bribes.
Ami kut awh ce ak che cainaak awm nawh amik tang ben kutkhqi awm ang hyp ik-oeih peeknaak ing be uhy.
11 But I have walked in my innocence: redeem me, and have mercy upon me.
Cehlai, kai taw coet kap kaana khaw ka sak dawngawh, ni hul nawh nim qeen lah.
12 My foot stands in an even place: in the congregations will I bless you, O Lord.
Ka khaw ve hun a nepnaak awh dyi nawh; thlangkqeng ang cunnaak awh Bawipa ce kyihcah kaw.
