Salamo 26

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

[A Psalm] of David. Judge me, O Lord; for I have walked in my innocence: and hoping in the Lord I shall not be moved.

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

Prove me, O Lord, and try me; purify as with fire my reins and my heart.

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

For your mercy is before mine eyes: and I am well pleased with your truth.

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

I have not sat with the council of vanity, and will in nowise enter in with transgressors.

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

I have hated the assembly of wicked doers; and will not sit with ungodly [men].

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

I will wash my hands in innocency, and compass your altar, O Lord:

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

to hear the voice of praise, and to declare all your wonderful works.

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

O Lord, I have loved the beauty of your house, and the place of the tabernacle of your glory.

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

Destroy not my soul together with the ungodly, nor my life with bloody men:

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

in whose hands [are] iniquities, [and] their right hand is filled with bribes.

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

But I have walked in my innocence: redeem me, and have mercy upon me.

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

My foot stands in an even place: in the congregations will I bless you, O Lord.
