< Psalms 26 >

1 Yahweh, show that I (am innocent/have not done what is wrong). I always do what is right; I have trusted in you and never doubted [that you would help me].
Salimo la Davide. Weruzeni Inu Yehova pakuti ndakhala moyo wosalakwa. Ndadalira Yehova popanda kugwedezeka.
2 Yahweh, examine what I have done and test me; thoroughly evaluate what I think [IDM].
Patseni mayeso, Inu Yehova ndipo ndiyeseni, santhulani mtima wanga ndi maganizo anga;
3 I never forget that you faithfully love me, I conduct my life according to your truth.
pakuti chikondi chanu chili pamaso panga nthawi zonse, ndipo ndimayenda mʼchoonadi chanu nthawi zonse.
4 I do not spend my time with liars and I stay away from hypocrites.
Ine sindikhala pansi pamodzi ndi anthu achinyengo, kapena kufunsa nzeru kwa achiphamaso.
5 I do not like to be with evil people, and I avoid wicked people.
Ndimanyansidwa ndi msonkhano wa anthu ochita zoyipa ndipo ndimakana kukhala pansi pamodzi ndi oyipa.
6 Yahweh, I wash my hands to show that I (am innocent/have not done what was wrong). As I join with others marching around your altar,
Ndimasamba mʼmanja mwanga kuonetsa kusalakwa kwanga ndi kupita kukatumikira pa guwa lanu la nsembe, Inu Yehova,
7 we sing songs to thank you, and we tell others the wonderful things that you [have done].
kulengeza mofuwula za matamando anu ndi kuwuza onse za ntchito zanu zodabwitsa.
8 Yahweh, I love [to be in] the temple where you live, in the place where your glory appears.
Ndimakonda Nyumba imene Inu Yehova mumakhalamo, malo amene ulemerero wanu umapezekako.
9 Do not get rid of me like you get rid of sinners; do not cause me to die like you cause those who murder [MTY] people to die,
Musachotse moyo wanga pamodzi ndi ochimwa, moyo wanga pamodzi ndi anthu akupha anzawo,
10 and people who [SYN] are ready to do wicked things and people who are always taking bribes.
amene mʼmanja mwawo muli ndondomeko zoyipa, dzanja lawo lamanja ladzaza ndi ziphuphu.
11 But as for me, I always try to do what is right. So be kind to me and rescue me.
Koma ine ndimakhala moyo wosalakwa; mu msonkhano wa anthu anu ndidzatamanda Yehova.
12 I stand in places where I am safe, and when [all your people] gather together, I praise you.
Ndayima pa malo wopanda zovuta ndipo ndidzatamanda Yehova mu msonkhano waukulu.
