< Psalms 26 >
1 Unto the end, a psalm for David. Judge me, O Lord, for I have walked in my innocence: and I have put my trust in the Lord, and shall not be weakened.
David ih Saam laa. Aw Angraeng, toenghaih ka pazui pongah, ka toenghaih baktiah lok takroek ah: Angraeng to ka oep pongah, kam thaek mak ai.
2 Prove me, O Lord, and try me; burn my reins and my heart.
Aw Angraeng, ka poekhaih hoi palungthin hae khen ah loe, caek tanoek ah.
3 For thy mercy is before my eyes; and I am well pleased with thy truth.
Nam lunghaih ka hmaa ah oh poe pongah, na loktang lok ah ka caeh.
4 I have not sat with the council of vanity: neither will I go in with the doers of unjust things.
Avang ai kaminawk hoi nawnto kang hnu ai moe, angsah thaih kaminawk hoi doeh nawnto ka caeh vai ai.
5 I have hated the assembly of the malignant; and with the wicked I will not sit.
Kasae sah kaminawk amkhuenghaih to ka panuet, kasae kaminawk hoi nawnto kang hnu mak ai.
6 I will wash my hands among the innocent; and will compass thy altar, O Lord:
Aw Angraeng, zaehaih om ai ah ban kam saeh moe, na hmaicam to ka ven han:
7 That I may hear the voice of thy praise: and tell of all thy wondrous works.
anghoehaih lok to ka thuih moe, anghmang thok na toksakhaihnawk boih to ka thuih han.
8 I have loved, O Lord, the beauty of thy house; and the place where thy glory dwelleth.
Aw Angraeng, na im ohhaih ahmuen, na lensawk amtuenghaih ahmuen to ka koeh.
9 Take not away my soul, O God, with the wicked: nor my life with bloody men:
Ka pakhra hae kazae kaminawk hoi nawnto suem hmah loe, ka hinghaih doeh athii anghae kaminawk hoi nawnto suem hmah:
10 In whose hands are iniquities: their right hand is filled with gifts.
nihcae ih ban loe kasae sakhaih kop o moe, a bantang bannawk loe bokhaih hmuen hoiah koi.
11 But as for me, I have walked in my innocence: redeem me, and have mercy on me.
Toe kai loe toenghaih loklam to pazui pongah, na krang ah loe, na tahmen ah.
12 My foot hath stood in the direct way: in the churches I will bless thee, O Lord.
Ka khok hae kadue ahmuen ah angdoe ueloe, rangpui amkhuenghaih ahmuen ah Angraeng to tahamhoihaih ka paek han.
