Psalms 26

1 A psalm of David. Judge me, Yahweh, for I have walked with integrity; I have trusted in Yahweh without wavering.

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 Examine me, Yahweh, and test me; test the purity of my inner parts and my heart!

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 For your covenant faithfulness is before my eyes, and I walk about in your faithfulness.

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 associate with deceitful people, nor do I mingle with dishonest people.

我決不與虛偽的人同坐，也決不與欺詐的人合作；

5 I hate the assembly of evildoers, and I do not live with the wicked.

我常痛恨敗類的集會，我也決不與惡人同席。

6 I wash my hands in innocence, and I go around your altar, Yahweh,

上主我要洗手表明無罪，我要走在你的祭壇周圍，

7 to sing a loud song of praise and report all your wonderful deeds.

為能高聲向你稱揚讚頌，傳述你的一切奇妙化工。

8 Yahweh, I love the house where you live, the place where your glory lives!

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 sweep me away with sinners, or my life with people who are bloodthirsty,

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 in whose hands there is a plot, and whose right hand is full of 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 will walk in integrity; redeem me and have mercy on me.

我卻一向行動無辜，求你救我，求你憐恤。

12 My foot stands on level ground; in the assemblies will I bless Yahweh!

我的腳站立於平坦大路，在集會中我要讚頌上主。
