< 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].
David ih Saam laa. Aw Angraeng, toenghaih ka pazui pongah, ka toenghaih baktiah lok takroek ah: Angraeng to ka oep pongah, kam thaek mak ai.
2 Yahweh, examine what I have done and test me; thoroughly evaluate what I think [IDM].
Aw Angraeng, ka poekhaih hoi palungthin hae khen ah loe, caek tanoek ah.
3 I never forget that you faithfully love me, I conduct my life according to your truth.
Nam lunghaih ka hmaa ah oh poe pongah, na loktang lok ah ka caeh.
4 I do not spend my time with liars and I stay away from hypocrites.
Avang ai kaminawk hoi nawnto kang hnu ai moe, angsah thaih kaminawk hoi doeh nawnto ka caeh vai ai.
5 I do not like to be with evil people, and I avoid wicked people.
Kasae sah kaminawk amkhuenghaih to ka panuet, kasae kaminawk hoi nawnto kang hnu mak ai.
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,
Aw Angraeng, zaehaih om ai ah ban kam saeh moe, na hmaicam to ka ven han:
7 we sing songs to thank you, and we tell others the wonderful things that you [have done].
anghoehaih lok to ka thuih moe, anghmang thok na toksakhaihnawk boih to ka thuih han.
8 Yahweh, I love [to be in] the temple where you live, in the place where your glory appears.
Aw Angraeng, na im ohhaih ahmuen, na lensawk amtuenghaih ahmuen to ka koeh.
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,
Ka pakhra hae kazae kaminawk hoi nawnto suem hmah loe, ka hinghaih doeh athii anghae kaminawk hoi nawnto suem hmah:
10 and people who [SYN] are ready to do wicked things and people who are always taking bribes.
nihcae ih ban loe kasae sakhaih kop o moe, a bantang bannawk loe bokhaih hmuen hoiah koi.
11 But as for me, I always try to do what is right. So be kind to me and rescue me.
Toe kai loe toenghaih loklam to pazui pongah, na krang ah loe, na tahmen ah.
12 I stand in places where I am safe, and when [all your people] gather together, I praise you.
Ka khok hae kadue ahmuen ah angdoe ueloe, rangpui amkhuenghaih ahmuen ah Angraeng to tahamhoihaih ka paek han.
