Psalms 26

1 `To Dauid. Lord, deme thou me, for Y entride in myn innocens; and Y hopynge in the Lord schal not be made vnstidfast.

Dawid dwom. Bu me bem, Ao Awurade, ɛfiri sɛ, mabɔ bra a asɛm nni ho: mede me ho too Awurade so na manhinhim.

2 Lord, preue thou me, and asaie me; brenne thou my reynes, and myn herte.

Sɔ me hwɛ, Ao Awurade, hwehwɛ mʼakoma ne mʼadwene mu.

3 For whi thi merci is bifor myn iyen; and Y pleside in thi treuthe.

Wʼadɔeɛ wɔ mʼanim daa na mɛnante wo nokorɛ mu.

4 I sat not with the counsel of vanyte; and Y schal not entre with men doynge wickid thingis.

Me ne nnaadaafoɔ ntena na me ne nyaatwomfoɔ nso nni hwee yɛ.

5 I hatide the chirche of yuele men; and Y schal not sitte with wickid men.

Mekyiri nnebɔneyɛfoɔ dwabɔ na mempɛ sɛ me ne amumuyɛfoɔ tena.

6 I schal waische myn hondis among innocentis; and, Lord, Y schal cumpasse thin auter.

Mehohoro me nsa wɔ bembuo mu, na makɔ wʼafɔrebukyia ho ahyia, Ao Awurade,

7 That Y here the vois of heriyng; and that Y telle out alle thi merueils.

na mepae mu ka wʼayɛyie na meka wʼanwanwadeɛ nyinaa.

8 Lord, Y haue loued the fairnesse of thin hows; and the place of the dwellyng of thi glorie.

Mʼani gye efie a wote mu ho, Ao Awurade, baabi a wʼanimuonyam wɔ no.

9 God, leese thou not my soule with vnfeithful men; and my lijf with men of bloodis.

Mfa me kra nka nnebɔneyɛfoɔ deɛ ho nkɔ. Mfa me nkwa nka mogyapɛfoɔ deɛ ho,

10 In whose hondis wyckidnessis ben; the riythond of hem is fillid with yiftis.

wɔn a amumuyɛ nhyehyɛeɛ wɔ wɔn nsam na adanmudeɛ ayɛ wɔn nsa nifa ma.

11 But Y entride in myn innocens; ayenbie thou me, and haue merci on me.

Nanso mebɔ ɔbra a ɛho teɛ. Hu me mmɔbɔ na gye me nkwa.

12 Mi foot stood in riytfulnesse; Lord, Y schal blesse thee in chirchis.

Me nan sisi asase tamaa so; na dwabɔ akɛseɛ ase na mɛkamfo Awurade.
