Psalms 26

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

Nkunga Davidi. Wundungisa, a Yave, bila ndidiatila mu luzingu lukambulu tsembolo. Nditula diana diama mu Yave mu kambu memata.

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

A Yave wumfiongunina, wumbeki, fiongunina mayindu ma ntimꞌama ayi ntimꞌama.

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

Bila luzolo luaku luidi mu zithangu zioso ku ntualꞌama ayi ndindiatanga mu zithangu zioso mu kiedika kiaku.

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

Ndivuandanga ko va kimosi ayi batu ba luvunu. Ndifubakananga ko va kimosi ayi bankua mayuya.

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

Ndieti kakumukina lukutukunu lu batu bamvanganga mambimbi. Ndivuandanga ko va kimosi ayi batu bambimbi.

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

Tsukudi mioko miama mu monisa ti ndisi zaba diambu ko, ayi ndiela zungidila ntalꞌaku, a Yave!

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

Mu yamikina minzitusu miaku mu mbembo yingolo ayi mu diambu di yolukila mangitukulu maku moso.

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

Ndinzolanga nzo yoyi weti zingila; a Yave buangu kimvuandanga nkemboꞌaku.

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

Kadi botula muelꞌama va kimosi ayi bankua masumu ayi luzingu luama va kimosi ayi bantengulanga menga ma batu,

10 in whose hands is wickedness, their right hand is full of bribes.

mu bobo badi mioko miyuku kubika zikhanu zimbimbi, bobo mioko mi lubakala miwedi makaba ma kinsueki.

11 But as for me, I will walk in my integrity. Redeem me, and be merciful to me.

Vayi minu, ndieti diatila mu luzingu lukambu tsembolo; bika wukhula ayi wumbona kiadi.

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

Malu mama madi va ntoto wuyalumuka mu lukhutukunu lunneni, ndiela zitisa Yave.
