< Psalms 26 >
1 [A Psalm] of David. Judge me, O LORD, for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD without wavering.
Kathutkung: Devit BAWIPA, nang ni kai lawk na ceng haw, lungcaknae hoi ka cei teh BAWIPA nang na kâuep dawkvah ka kâhuen mahoeh.
2 Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.
Kai hah na noumcai nateh, oe BAWIPA, ka lung ni a ngai e naw hoi ka pouknae hah na khen pouh haw.
3 For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes; and I have walked in thy truth.
Ka cak e na lungpatawnae lamthung kai na patue haw, yuemkamcunae ni pou na hrawi.
4 I have not sat with vain persons; neither will I go in with dissemblers.
Dumyennae hoi cungtalah ka hmawng hoeh. Tami kahawihoehnaw hai ka hmawng hoeh.
5 I hate the congregation of evil-doers, and will not sit with the wicked.
Tami kahawihoehnaw e kamkhuengnae hah ka hmuhma, Tamikathoutnaw hoi reirei ka tahung hoeh.
6 I will wash mine hands in innocency; so will I compass thine altar, O LORD:
Ka kut heh thoungnae hoi ka pâsu teh BAWIPA namae thuengnae ka lawngven.
7 That I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard, and tell of all thy wondrous works.
Lunghawilawkdeinae la ka sak teh kângairu hno na sak e hah ka dei.
8 LORD, I love the habitation of thy house, and the place where thy glory dwelleth.
BAWIPA na onae im hah kai lungpataw teh na bawilennae hmuen hah kai ni ka ngai.
9 Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with men of blood:
Tamikayonnaw koe kai mek thei sin hanlah tami kathetnaw koe kai na tâkhawng sin hanh.
10 In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes.
Ahnimouh teh hawihoehnae yungyoe a sak awh. Tadawnghno ka ngai e taminaw doeh.
11 But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me.
Kai teh hnokahawi hoeh e ka sak, na pahren nateh na rungngang haw.
12 My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the LORD.
Hnâroumcalah tanghling dawk ka kangdue teh maya a kamkhuengnae koe BAWIPA nang na pholen.
