< Psalms 26 >
1 David’s. Do me justice, O Yahweh, For, I, in my blamelessness, have walked, and, in Yahweh, have I trusted, I will not waver.
Aw Bawipa, ak thym na awi ni deng lah; coet a kap kaana khaw ka sak a dawngawh; kaw cak doena ni Bawipa ce ka ypnaak.
2 Try me, O Yahweh, and prove me, Test my reins and my heart: —
Aw Bawipa, ni noekdak nawh, ni nai plak plak lah, kam thin ka kyl ve ni silh pe lah.
3 For, thy lovingkindness, hath been before mine eyes, and I have walked to and fro in thy faithfulness;
Na lungnaak ve ka haiawh awm poepa nawh, nak awitak awh ka ceh poepa a dawngawh.
4 I have not sat with men of deceit, nor, with dissemblers, would I enter;
Qaai ak kqawn thlang mi am ngawi haih man nyng saw, ak hoel qu thlangkhqi ing am pyi qu man nih nyng.
5 I have hated the convocation of evil-doers, and, with lawless men, would I not sit;
Ik-oeih che ak saikhqi ang cunnaak ce tyih nyng saw thlak chekhqi ing ngawih haih aham awm tha na nyng.
6 I will bathe, in pureness, my hands, —so will I go in procession around thine altar, O Yahweh;
Coet kap kaana kut ve sil nyng saw, Bawipa na bawkthang a kengsam awh cet vang.
7 To sound aloud a song, and to recount all thy wonderful doings.
Namah kyihcahnaak ce khawteh na khypyi nyng saw kawpoek kyi ik-oeih na saikhqi boeih ce kqawn vang.
8 O Yahweh, I have loved the asylum of thy house, even the place of the habitation of thy glory!
Aw Bawipa, na awmnaak im, na boeimang a awmnaak hun ce thin tlawh na nyng.
9 Do not remove, with sinners, my soul, nor, with men of bloodshed, my life;
Ka hqingnaak ve, thlak thawlhkhqi, thlang a thi ak ngaihkhqi mi koeh lawh sih.
10 In whose hands is a plot, and, their right hand, is filled with a bribe.
Ami kut awh ce ak che cainaak awm nawh amik tang ben kutkhqi awm ang hyp ik-oeih peeknaak ing be uhy.
11 But, I, in my blamelessness, will walk, Redeem me and show me favour.
Cehlai, kai taw coet kap kaana khaw ka sak dawngawh, ni hul nawh nim qeen lah.
12 My foot standeth in a level place, In the convocations, will I bless Yahweh.
Ka khaw ve hun a nepnaak awh dyi nawh; thlangkqeng ang cunnaak awh Bawipa ce kyihcah kaw.
