Psalm 26

1 [Psalm lal David] O LEUM GOD, akkalemye lah wangin mwetik, Mweyen nga oru ma suwohs Ac nga lulalfongi kom ke insiuk nufon.

“A psalm of David.” Be thou my judge, O LORD! for I have walked in uprightness. I have put my trust in the LORD, therefore shall I not fall.

2 Tuniyu ac srikeyu, LEUM GOD; Liye insiuk ac nunak luk.

Examine me, O LORD! and prove me; Try my reins and my heart!

3 Tuh lungse kawil lom atolyu; Ac oaru lom kolyu pacl e nukewa.

For thy kindness is ever before my eyes, And I walk in thy truth.

4 Nga tia asruoki yurin mwet lusrongten; Wangin ip luk yurin mwet wosounkas.

I sit not with men of falsehood. And go not in company with dissemblers.

5 Nga tia lungse asruoki nu sin mwet koluk, Ac nga fahsr liki mwet sulallal.

I hate the assembly of evil-doers, And do not sit with the wicked.

6 LEUM GOD, nga ohlla pouk in akkalemye lah nga nasnas na, Ac nga fahsr rauni loang lom.

I wash my hands in innocence. And go around thine altar. O LORD!

7 Nga yuk soko on in sang kulo, Ac nga fahkak ke orekma wowo lom nukewa.

To utter the voice of thanksgiving, And tell of all thy wondrous works.

8 LEUM GOD, nga lungsik lohm su kom muta we, Acn su wolana lom oan we.

O LORD! I love the habitation of thy house, The place where thine honor dwelleth!

9 Nikmet uniyuwi yurin mwet koluk; Moliyula liki ouiyen misa lun mwet akmas,

Gather not my breath with sinners, Nor my life with men of blood,

10 Mwet su orekma koluk in pacl e nukewa Ac akola in eis mwe moul kutasrik.

In whose hands is mischief, And whose right hands are full of bribes!

11 A funu nga, nga oru ma suwoswos. Pakomutuk ac moliyula!

But as for me, I walk in my integrity; Oh, redeem me, and be merciful to me!

12 Nga muta in misla liki mwe ongoiya nukewa; Nga fah kaksakin LEUM GOD ke nga muta inmasrlon mwet lal.

My feet tread in a straight path; In the congregation will I bless the LORD.
