Salamo 26

1 Meo to iraho, ry Iehovà, fa mitrantràñe ami’ty havañonako; tsy nifejofejo ty fiatoako am’ Iehovà, vaho tsy hasiotse iraho.

Of David. Vindicate me, O LORD! For I have walked with integrity; I have trusted in the LORD without wavering.

2 Biribirio iraho ry Iehovà vaho tsoho; hotsohotsò ty añ’ovako naho an-troko.

Test me, O LORD, and try me; examine my heart and mind.

3 Aolo’ o masokoo ty fiferenaiña’o, vaho manjotik’ amo figahiña’oo iraho.

For Your loving devotion is before my eyes, and I have walked in Your truth.

4 Tsy fitraofako toboke o mpamañahio, naho tsy fiharoako fijelanjelañe o soamiatrekeo.

I do not sit with deceitful men, nor keep company with hypocrites.

5 Hejeko ty fifañosoña’ o tsivokatseo, vaho tsy fitraofako toboke o lo-tserekeo.

I hate the mob of evildoers, and refuse to sit with the wicked.

6 Hanasa tañañ’ an-kalio tahin-draho, vaho harikohoeko ty kitreli’o ry Iehovà,

I wash my hands in innocence that I may go about Your altar, O LORD,

7 Ho poñafeko ty feom-pañandriañañe, ho talilieko iaby o fitoloña’o fanjakao.

to raise my voice in thanksgiving and declare all Your wonderful works.

8 Ry Iehovà, teako ty fimoneñañe añ’anjomba’o ao, naho i kivoho fañialoañ’ enge’oy.

O LORD, I love the house where You dwell, the place where Your glory resides.

9 Ko aharo’o fitontoñe amo mpanan-kakeoo ty troko, ndra ty fiaiko am’ondaty mampiori-dioo;

Do not take my soul away with sinners, or my life with men of bloodshed,

10 o mitan-kilily an-taña’eo, ie pea vokàñe ty an-taña’e havana ao;

in whose hands are wicked schemes, whose right hands are full of bribes.

11 Aa naho izaho, hitsontik’ an-kalio-tahiko; jebaño, vaho matariha amako.

But I will walk with integrity; redeem me and be merciful to me.

12 Mijohañe an-tane mira ty tomboko; andriañeko am-pivory ao t’Iehovà.

My feet stand on level ground; in the congregations I will bless the LORD.
