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].

上主求你替我主持正義，因我行動無辜，我曾毫不猶豫地全心依賴了上主。

2 Yahweh, examine what I have done and test me; thoroughly evaluate what I think [IDM].

上主，你儘管對我試驗，對我查考，你儘管對我的五內和心臟探討；

3 I never forget that you faithfully love me, I conduct my life according to your truth.

原來你的受常擺在我眼前，我常遵照你的真理行走盤桓。

4 I do not spend my time with liars and I stay away from hypocrites.

我決不與虛偽的人同坐，也決不與欺詐的人合作；

5 I do not like to be with evil people, and I avoid wicked people.

我常痛恨敗類的集會，我也決不與惡人同席。

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,

上主我要洗手表明無罪，我要走在你的祭壇周圍，

7 we sing songs to thank you, and we tell others the wonderful things that you [have done].

為能高聲向你稱揚讚頌，傳述你的一切奇妙化工。

8 Yahweh, I love [to be in] the temple where you live, in the place where your glory appears.

上主，我喜愛你所住的殿堂，就是你那榮耀寄居的地方。

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,

求你不要把我的靈魂和罪人們一起收去；求你不要把我的生命與流血者一起剷除。

10 and people who [SYN] are ready to do wicked things and people who are always taking bribes.

因為他們的手中盡是罪污，他們的右手滿是賄賂；

11 But as for me, I always try to do what is right. So be kind to me and rescue me.

我卻一向行動無辜，求你救我，求你憐恤。

12 I stand in places where I am safe, and when [all your people] gather together, I praise you.

我的腳站立於平坦大路，在集會中我要讚頌上主。
