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.

Sodi me, oh Gospod, kajti hodil sem v svoji neokrnjenosti. Zaupal sem tudi v Gospoda, zato ne bom zdrsnil.

2 Try me, O Lord, and prove me; purify my reins and my heart.

Preišči me, oh Gospod in preizkusi me; preizkusi mojo notranjost in moje srce.

3 For thy kindness is before my eyes; and I have walked in thy truth.

Kajti tvoja ljubeča skrbnost je pred mojimi očmi in hodil sem v tvoji resnici.

4 I have not sat with men of falsehood, and with dissemblers will I not enter [in communion].

Nisem se usedal z domišljavimi osebami niti ne bom vstopal s hinavci.

5 I have hated the assemblage of evil-doers; and with the wicked will I not sit.

Sovražil sem skupnost hudodelcev in z zlobnimi ne bom sedel.

6 I will wash in innocency my hands, and I will compass thy altar, O Lord:

V nedolžnosti si bom umival roke; tako bom hodil okoli tvojega oltarja, oh Gospod,

7 That I may publish with a loud voice [my] thanksgiving, and relate all thy wondrous deeds.

da bom lahko razglašal z glasom zahvaljevanja in pripovedoval o vseh tvojih čudovitih delih.

8 Lord, I love the site of thy house, and the place where thy glory dwelleth.

Gospod, ljubil sem prebivališče tvoje hiše in kraj, kjer prebiva tvoja čast.

9 Take not away with sinners my soul, nor with men of blood my life;

Ne zbiraj moje duše z grešniki niti mojega življenja s krvoločnimi ljudmi.

10 In whose hands are wicked devices, and whose right hand is full of bribes.

V čigar rokah je vragolija, njihova desnica pa je polna podkupnin.

11 But as for me, I will walk in my integrity: redeem me, and be gracious unto me.

Toda kar se mene tiče, jaz bom hodil v svoji neokrnjenosti. Odkupi me in bodi mi usmiljen.

12 My foot standeth on an even place: in assemblies will I bless the Lord.

Moje stopalo stoji na ravnem kraju. V skupnostih bom blagoslavljal Gospoda.
