Psalms 26
1 A Psalme of David. Judge me, O Lord, for I haue walked in mine innocency: my trust hath bene also in the Lord: therefore shall I not slide.
ElikaDavida. Veza ukungabi lacala kwami, Thixo, ngoba sengiphile impilo engelansolo; ngihlezi ngimethemba uThixo ngingaxhamandi.
2 Proue me, O Lord, and trie mee: examine my reines, and mine heart.
Ngilinga, Oh Thixo, ungizame, hlola inhliziyo yami lengqondo yami;
3 For thy louing kindnesse is before mine eyes: therefore haue I walked in thy trueth.
ngoba uthando Lwakho luhlezi luphambi kwami, njalo kokuphela ngihamba eqinisweni Lakho.
4 I haue not hanted with vaine persons, neither kept companie with the dissemblers.
Kangidlelani labantu abakhohlisayo njalo kangiwelelani labazenzisi;
5 I haue hated the assemblie of the euill, and haue not companied with the wicked.
ngiyawenyanya umbuthano wezigangi; njalo ngiyala ukuhlala lezixhwali.
6 I will wash mine handes in innocencie, O Lord, and compasse thine altar,
Ngigeza izandla zami ngokungelacala, bese ngilizungeza i-alithari Lakho, Oh Thixo,
7 That I may declare with the voyce of thankesgiuing, and set foorth all thy wonderous woorkes.
ngimemezele ngamandla indumiso Yakho ngibatshele bonke ngemisebenzi Yakho eyisimanga.
8 O Lord, I haue loued the habitation of thine house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth.
Ngiyayithanda indlu ohlala kuyo, Oh Thixo, indawo lapho inkazimulo Yakho ehlala khona.
9 Gather not my soule with the sinners, nor my life with the bloodie men:
Ungamukisi umphefumulo wami ndawonye lowezoni, impilo yami kanye lalabo abomele igazi,
10 In whose handes is wickednes, and their right hand is full of bribes.
ozandla zabo zilamacebo amabi, ozandla zabo zokunene zifumbethe izivalamlomo.
11 But I will walke in mine innocencie: redeeme me therefore, and be mercifull vnto me.
Kodwa mina ngiphila impilo engelasici; ngihlenga ube lesihawu kimi.
12 My foote standeth in vprightnesse: I will praise thee, O Lord, in the Congregations.
Inyawo zami zimi emhlabathini ochayileyo; ngizamdumisa uThixo emhlanganweni omkhulu.
