< Psalms 26 >

1 Judge me, O YHWH; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in YHWH; therefore I shall not slide.
Dawid dwom. Bu me bem, Ao Awurade, ɛfiri sɛ, mabɔ bra a asɛm nni ho: mede me ho too Awurade so na manhinhim.
2 Examine me, O YHWH, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.
Sɔ me hwɛ, Ao Awurade, hwehwɛ mʼakoma ne mʼadwene mu.
3 For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth.
Wʼadɔeɛ wɔ mʼanim daa na mɛnante wo nokorɛ mu.
4 I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers.
Me ne nnaadaafoɔ ntena na me ne nyaatwomfoɔ nso nni hwee yɛ.
5 I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked.
Mekyiri nnebɔneyɛfoɔ dwabɔ na mempɛ sɛ me ne amumuyɛfoɔ tena.
6 I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O YHWH:
Mehohoro me nsa wɔ bembuo mu, na makɔ wʼafɔrebukyia ho ahyia, Ao Awurade,
7 That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works.
na mepae mu ka wʼayɛyie na meka wʼanwanwadeɛ nyinaa.
8 YHWH, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth.
Mʼani gye efie a wote mu ho, Ao Awurade, baabi a wʼanimuonyam wɔ no.
9 Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men:
Mfa me kra nka nnebɔneyɛfoɔ deɛ ho nkɔ. Mfa me nkwa nka mogyapɛfoɔ deɛ ho,
10 In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes.
wɔn a amumuyɛ nhyehyɛeɛ wɔ wɔn nsam na adanmudeɛ ayɛ wɔn nsa nifa ma.
11 But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me.
Nanso mebɔ ɔbra a ɛho teɛ. Hu me mmɔbɔ na gye me nkwa.
12 My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless YHWH.
Me nan sisi asase tamaa so; na dwabɔ akɛseɛ ase na mɛkamfo Awurade.
