< Psalms 26 >

1 “Of David.” Judge me, O Lord; for I have indeed walked in my integrity: and in the Lord have I trusted; I shall not slip.
Nzembo ya Davidi. Yawe, longisa ngai na miso ya basambisi, pamba te natambolaka na bosembo; natielaka Yawe motema, nakozonga sima te.
2 Try me, O Lord, and prove me; purify my reins and my heart.
Yawe, tala ngai malamu mpe meka ngai, sosola motema mpe makanisi na ngai,
3 For thy kindness is before my eyes; and I have walked in thy truth.
pamba te napengwaka te liboso ya bolingo na Yo mpe nabikaka bomoi na ngai kolanda bosembo na Yo.
4 I have not sat with men of falsehood, and with dissemblers will I not enter [in communion].
Navandaka esika moko te na bakosi, natambolaka nzela moko te na bato ya mitema mibale.
5 I have hated the assemblage of evil-doers; and with the wicked will I not sit.
Nayinaka kosangana elongo na bato ya misala mabe mpe navandaka te esika moko na bato mabe.
6 I will wash in innocency my hands, and I will compass thy altar, O Lord:
Yawe, nasukoli maboko na ngai mpo na kolakisa ete nasali mabe te, mpe nabandi na etumbelo na Yo,
7 That I may publish with a loud voice [my] thanksgiving, and relate all thy wondrous deeds.
mpo na kozongisela Yo matondi mpe kotatola misala minene na Yo.
8 Lord, I love the site of thy house, and the place where thy glory dwelleth.
Yawe, nasepelaka na Tempelo epai wapi ovandaka elongo na nkembo na Yo.
9 Take not away with sinners my soul, nor with men of blood my life;
Kolongola te molimo na ngai nzela moko na bato ya masumu, bomoi na ngai elongo na basopi makila,
10 In whose hands are wicked devices, and whose right hand is full of bribes.
oyo maboko na bango etondi na makila, mpe maboko na bango ya mibali etondi na kanyaka.
11 But as for me, I will walk in my integrity: redeem me, and be gracious unto me.
Natambolaka na bomoi ya bosembo; kangola ngai mpe salela ngai ngolu.
12 My foot standeth on an even place: in assemblies will I bless the Lord.
Makolo na ngai etambolaka na nzela ya alima; nakopambola Yawe kati na mayangani ya monene.
