< 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 kah Aw BOEIPA, kai he lai han tloek lah. Thincaknah neh ka cet tih BOEIPA te ka pangtung dongah ka dinghae pawh.
2 Prove me, O Lord, and try me; burn my reins and my heart.
Aw BOEIPA kai he n'loepdak lamtah kai n'noemcai lah. Ka kuel neh lungbuei he picai la picai mai.
3 For thy mercy is before my eyes; and I am well pleased with thy truth.
Ka mik dongah na sitlohnah ka hmaitang tih na oltak dongah ka cet.
4 I have not sat with the council of vanity: neither will I go in with the doers of unjust things.
Hlang taengah a poeyoek la ka ngol pawt tih aka thuhrhawk neh ka yok pawh.
5 I have hated the assembly of the malignant; and with the wicked I will not sit.
Thaehuet rhoek kah a ngolhlung te ka thiinah tih halang rhoek taengah ka ngol pawh.
6 I will wash my hands among the innocent; and will compass thy altar, O Lord:
Ka kut he cimnah neh ka silh tih, BOEIPA nang kah hmueihtuk te ka hil he,
7 That I may hear the voice of thy praise: and tell of all thy wondrous works.
Uemonah ol te ka doek tih namah kah khobaerhambae boeih te ka tae.
8 I have loved, O Lord, the beauty of thy house; and the place where thy glory dwelleth.
Aw BOEIPA, na lum-im khuirhung neh na thangpomnah dungtlungim hmuen te ka lungnah.
9 Take not away my soul, O God, with the wicked: nor my life with bloody men:
Ka hinglu he hlangtholh rhoek neh, ka hingnah he thii aka hal hlang rhoek taengla coi boeh.
10 In whose hands are iniquities: their right hand is filled with gifts.
Amih kut dongah boethae om tih a bantang kut ah kapbaih a poem uh.
11 But as for me, I have walked in my innocence: redeem me, and have mercy on me.
Tedae kai tah kamah thincaknah neh ka cet. Kai n'lat lamtah kai n'rhen lah.
12 My foot hath stood in the direct way: in the churches I will bless thee, O Lord.
Ka kho he tlangkol ah pai tih khangkhung lakli ah BOEIPA te a yoethen pai ni.
