< Psalms 26 >

1 [A Psalm] of David. Judge me, O Jehovah, for I have walked in mine integrity, and I have confided in Jehovah: I shall not slip.
Ko e Saame ʻa Tevita. Ke ke fakamaau au, ʻE Sihova; he naʻaku ʻeveʻeva ʻi heʻeku angatonu: naʻaku falala foki kia Sihova; ko ia ʻe ʻikai ai te u hekea.
2 Prove me, Jehovah, and test me; try my reins and my heart:
‌ʻAhiʻahiʻi au, ʻe Sihova, ʻo ʻiloʻi au; ʻahiʻahiʻi hoku laumālie mo hoku loto.
3 For thy loving-kindness is before mine eyes, and I have walked in thy truth.
He ʻoku ʻi hoku ʻao ʻa hoʻo ʻaloʻofa pea naʻaku ʻeveʻeva ʻi hoʻo moʻoni.
4 I have not sat with vain persons, neither have I gone in with dissemblers;
Naʻe ʻikai te u nofo mo e kau tangata angakovi, pea ʻe ʻikai te u ʻalu ki loto mo e kau mālualoi.
5 I have hated the congregation of evil-doers, and I have not sat with the wicked.
‌ʻOku ou fehiʻa ki he fakataha ʻoe kau fai kovi; pea ʻe ʻikai te u nofo mo e kau angahala.
6 I will wash my hands in innocency, and will encompass thine altar, O Jehovah,
Te u fanofano hoku nima ʻi he māʻoniʻoni: pea ʻe pehē pe ʻeku kāpui ho ʻesifeilaulau, ʻE Sihova:
7 That I may cause the voice of thanksgiving to be heard, and declare all thy marvellous works.
Koeʻuhi ke u fakahā ʻaki ʻae leʻo ʻoe fakafetaʻi, pea fakamatala ki hoʻo ngaahi ngāue fakaofo kotoa pē.
8 Jehovah, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thy glory dwelleth.
‌ʻE Sihova, kuo u ʻofa ki he nofoʻanga ʻo ho fale, mo e potu ʻoku nofo ai ʻa hoʻo ʻafio.
9 Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with men of blood;
‌ʻOua naʻa ke fakataha hoku laumālie mo e kau angahala, pe ko ʻeku moʻui mo e kau tangata pani toto:
10 In whose hands are evil devices, and their right hand is full of bribes.
‌ʻAkinautolu ʻoku ʻi honau nima ʻae pauʻu, pea ʻoku fonu honau nima toʻomataʻu ʻi he ngaahi meʻa fakahē.
11 But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity. Redeem me, and be gracious unto me.
Ka ko au, te u ʻeveʻeva ʻi heʻeku angatonu: ke ke huhuʻi au, mo ke ʻaloʻofa kiate au.
12 My foot standeth in an even place; in the congregations will I bless Jehovah.
‌ʻOku tuʻu hoku vaʻe ʻi he potu tokamālie: ʻi he ngaahi fakataha ʻoe kakai te u fakafetaʻi kia Sihova.
