Abụ Ọma 26

1 Abụ Ọma Devid. Onyenwe anyị, biko kpepụta m, nʼihi na ebiela m ndụ zuruoke; atụkwasịrị m Onyenwe anyị obi, na-eleghị anya nʼazụ.

[By David.] Judge me, Jehovah, for I have walked in my integrity. I have trusted also in Jehovah without wavering.

2 Tulee m, O Onyenwe anyị, ma nwakwaa m, nyochaa obi m na echiche m.

Examine me, Jehovah, and prove me. Try my heart and my mind.

3 Nʼihi na ejirila m ịhụnanya gị mere ihe nlere anya nye onwe m. Ana m ejegharịkwa nʼime eziokwu gị.

For your loving kindness is before my eyes. I have walked in your truth.

4 Mụ na ndị na-aghọ aghụghọ adịghị enwe mmekọ ọbụla. Otu a kwa, nnwekọ ọbụla adịghịkwa nʼetiti mụ na ndị ihu abụọ.

I have not sat with deceitful men, neither will I go in with hypocrites.

5 Akpọrọ m otu ndị na-emebi iwu asị. Mụ na ndị ajọ omume agaghị anọkọkwa.

I hate the assembly of evildoers, and will not sit with the wicked.

6 Ana m asacha aka m abụọ nʼọnọdụ emeghị ihe ọjọọ, na-eje ozi nʼebe ịchụ aja gị ife gị ofufe, o Onyenwe anyị.

I will wash my hands in innocence, so I will go about your altar, Jehovah;

7 Ana m abụkwa abụ ekele, jiri iti mkpu na-ekwusa otuto gị, na ọrụ ebube gị niile.

that I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard, and tell of all your wondrous works.

8 O Onyenwe anyị, ahụrụ m ụlọ obibi gị nʼanya, ụlọ ahụ ebe ebube gị na-adịgide nʼime ya.

Jehovah, I love the habitation of your house, the place where your glory dwells.

9 Ebibikọtala mụ na ndị mmehie, ewezugakọtala ndụ m na nke ndị na-awụfu ọbara,

Do not gather my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloodthirsty men;

10 ndị aka ha jupụtara nʼatụmatụ ọjọọ, aka nri ha jupụtakwara na ngarị.

in whose hands is wickedness, their right hand is full of bribes.

11 Ma mụ onwe m na-ebi ndụ zuruoke; gbapụta m ma meere m ebere.

But as for me, I will walk in my integrity. Redeem me, and be merciful to me.

12 Ụkwụ m na-eguzo nʼala dị larịị; aga m eto Onyenwe anyị nʼetiti ọha mmadụ.

My foot stands in an even place. In the congregations I will bless Jehovah.
