< Psalms 26 >
1 By David. Judge me, LORD, for I have walked in my integrity. I have trusted also in the LORD without wavering.
Aw Bawipa, ak thym na awi ni deng lah; coet a kap kaana khaw ka sak a dawngawh; kaw cak doena ni Bawipa ce ka ypnaak.
2 Examine me, LORD, and prove me. Try my heart and my mind.
Aw Bawipa, ni noekdak nawh, ni nai plak plak lah, kam thin ka kyl ve ni silh pe lah.
3 For your loving kindness is before my eyes. I have walked in your truth.
Na lungnaak ve ka haiawh awm poepa nawh, nak awitak awh ka ceh poepa a dawngawh.
4 I have not sat with deceitful men, neither will I go in with hypocrites.
Qaai ak kqawn thlang mi am ngawi haih man nyng saw, ak hoel qu thlangkhqi ing am pyi qu man nih nyng.
5 I hate the assembly of evildoers, and will not sit with the wicked.
Ik-oeih che ak saikhqi ang cunnaak ce tyih nyng saw thlak chekhqi ing ngawih haih aham awm tha na nyng.
6 I will wash my hands in innocence, so I will go about your altar, LORD,
Coet kap kaana kut ve sil nyng saw, Bawipa na bawkthang a kengsam awh cet vang.
7 that I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard and tell of all your wondrous deeds.
Namah kyihcahnaak ce khawteh na khypyi nyng saw kawpoek kyi ik-oeih na saikhqi boeih ce kqawn vang.
8 LORD, I love the habitation of your house, the place where your glory dwells.
Aw Bawipa, na awmnaak im, na boeimang a awmnaak hun ce thin tlawh na nyng.
9 Don’t gather my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloodthirsty men
Ka hqingnaak ve, thlak thawlhkhqi, thlang a thi ak ngaihkhqi mi koeh lawh sih.
10 in whose hands is wickedness; their right hand is full of bribes.
Ami kut awh ce ak che cainaak awm nawh amik tang ben kutkhqi awm ang hyp ik-oeih peeknaak ing be uhy.
11 But as for me, I will walk in my integrity. Redeem me, and be merciful to me.
Cehlai, kai taw coet kap kaana khaw ka sak dawngawh, ni hul nawh nim qeen lah.
12 My foot stands in an even place. In the congregations I will bless the LORD.
Ka khaw ve hun a nepnaak awh dyi nawh; thlangkqeng ang cunnaak awh Bawipa ce kyihcah kaw.
