< Psalms 26 >

1 A psalm of David. Judge me, Yahweh, for I have walked with integrity; I have trusted in Yahweh without wavering.
David kah Aw BOEIPA, kai he lai han tloek lah. Thincaknah neh ka cet tih BOEIPA te ka pangtung dongah ka dinghae pawh.
2 Examine me, Yahweh, and test me; test the purity of my inner parts and my heart!
Aw BOEIPA kai he n'loepdak lamtah kai n'noemcai lah. Ka kuel neh lungbuei he picai la picai mai.
3 For your covenant faithfulness is before my eyes, and I walk about in your faithfulness.
Ka mik dongah na sitlohnah ka hmaitang tih na oltak dongah ka cet.
4 I do not associate with deceitful people, nor do I mingle with dishonest people.
Hlang taengah a poeyoek la ka ngol pawt tih aka thuhrhawk neh ka yok pawh.
5 I hate the assembly of evildoers, and I do not live with the wicked.
Thaehuet rhoek kah a ngolhlung te ka thiinah tih halang rhoek taengah ka ngol pawh.
6 I wash my hands in innocence, and I go around your altar, Yahweh,
Ka kut he cimnah neh ka silh tih, BOEIPA nang kah hmueihtuk te ka hil he,
7 to sing a loud song of praise and report all your wonderful deeds.
Uemonah ol te ka doek tih namah kah khobaerhambae boeih te ka tae.
8 Yahweh, I love the house where you live, the place where your glory lives!
Aw BOEIPA, na lum-im khuirhung neh na thangpomnah dungtlungim hmuen te ka lungnah.
9 Do not sweep me away with sinners, or my life with people who are bloodthirsty,
Ka hinglu he hlangtholh rhoek neh, ka hingnah he thii aka hal hlang rhoek taengla coi boeh.
10 in whose hands there is a plot, and whose right hand is full of bribes.
Amih kut dongah boethae om tih a bantang kut ah kapbaih a poem uh.
11 But as for me, I will walk in integrity; redeem me and have mercy on me.
Tedae kai tah kamah thincaknah neh ka cet. Kai n'lat lamtah kai n'rhen lah.
12 My foot stands on level ground; in the assemblies will I bless Yahweh!
Ka kho he tlangkol ah pai tih khangkhung lakli ah BOEIPA te a yoethen pai ni.
