< 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.
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; burn 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 thy mercy is before my eyes; and I am well pleased with thy 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: neither will I go in with the doers of unjust things.
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 the malignant; and with the wicked I will not sit.
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 among the innocent; and will compass thy altar, O Lord:
Coet kap kaana kut ve sil nyng saw, Bawipa na bawkthang a kengsam awh cet vang.
7 That I may hear the voice of thy praise: and tell of all thy wondrous works.
Namah kyihcahnaak ce khawteh na khypyi nyng saw kawpoek kyi ik-oeih na saikhqi boeih ce kqawn vang.
8 I have loved, O Lord, the beauty of thy house; and the place where thy glory dwelleth.
Aw Bawipa, na awmnaak im, na boeimang a awmnaak hun ce thin tlawh na nyng.
9 Take not away my soul, O God, with the wicked: 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: their right hand is filled with gifts.
Ami kut awh ce ak che cainaak awm nawh amik tang ben kutkhqi awm ang hyp ik-oeih peeknaak ing be uhy.
11 But as for me, I have walked in my innocence: redeem me, and have mercy on me.
Cehlai, kai taw coet kap kaana khaw ka sak dawngawh, ni hul nawh nim qeen lah.
12 My foot hath stood in the direct way: in the churches I will bless thee, O Lord.
Ka khaw ve hun a nepnaak awh dyi nawh; thlangkqeng ang cunnaak awh Bawipa ce kyihcah kaw.
