Psalms 26

1 [By David.] Judge me, Jehovah, for I have walked in my integrity. I have trusted also in Jehovah without wavering.

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

2 Examine me, Jehovah, and prove me. Try my heart and my mind.

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

3 For your loving kindness is before my eyes. I have walked in your truth.

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

4 I have not sat with deceitful men, neither will I go in with hypocrites.

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

5 I hate the assembly of evildoers, and will not sit with the wicked.

Sovražil sem skupnost hudodelcev in z zlobnimi ne bom sedel.

6 I will wash my hands in innocence, so I will go about your altar, Jehovah;

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

7 that I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard, and tell of all your wondrous works.

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

8 Jehovah, I love the habitation of your house, the place where your glory dwells.

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

9 Do not gather my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloodthirsty men;

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

10 in whose hands is wickedness, their 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 merciful to me.

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

12 My foot stands in an even place. In the congregations I will bless Jehovah.

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