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.” Judge me, O Lord; for I have indeed walked in my integrity: and in the Lord have I trusted; I shall not slip.

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

Try me, O Lord, and prove me; purify my reins and my heart.

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

For thy kindness is before my eyes; and I have walked in thy truth.

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

I have not sat with men of falsehood, and with dissemblers will I not enter [in communion].

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

I have hated the assemblage of evil-doers; and with the wicked will I not sit.

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

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

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

That I may publish with a loud voice [my] thanksgiving, and relate all thy wondrous deeds.

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

Lord, I love the site of thy house, and the place where thy glory dwelleth.

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

Take not away with sinners my soul, nor with men of blood my life;

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

In whose hands are wicked devices, and whose right hand is full of bribes.

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

But as for me, I will walk in my integrity: redeem me, and be gracious unto me.

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

My foot standeth on an even place: in assemblies will I bless the Lord.
