< Psalmi 26 >
1 Sodi me, oh Gospod, kajti hodil sem v svoji neokrnjenosti. Zaupal sem tudi v Gospoda, zato ne bom zdrsnil.
Unto the end. A Psalm of David. Judge me, Lord, for I have been walking in my innocence, and by hoping in the Lord, I will not be weakened.
2 Preišči me, oh Gospod in preizkusi me; preizkusi mojo notranjost in moje srce.
Examine me, Lord, and test me: enkindle my temperament and my heart.
3 Kajti tvoja ljubeča skrbnost je pred mojimi očmi in hodil sem v tvoji resnici.
For your mercy is before my eyes, and I am serene in your truth.
4 Nisem se usedal z domišljavimi osebami niti ne bom vstopal s hinavci.
I have not sat with the council of emptiness, and I will not enter with those who carry out injustice.
5 Sovražil sem skupnost hudodelcev in z zlobnimi ne bom sedel.
I have hated the assembly of the malicious; and I will not sit with the impious.
6 V nedolžnosti si bom umival roke; tako bom hodil okoli tvojega oltarja, oh Gospod,
I will wash my hands among the innocent, and I will surround your altar, O Lord,
7 da bom lahko razglašal z glasom zahvaljevanja in pripovedoval o vseh tvojih čudovitih delih.
so that I may hear the voice of your praise and describe all your wonders.
8 Gospod, ljubil sem prebivališče tvoje hiše in kraj, kjer prebiva tvoja čast.
O Lord, I have loved the beauty of your house and the dwelling place of your glory.
9 Ne zbiraj moje duše z grešniki niti mojega življenja s krvoločnimi ljudmi.
O God, do not let my soul perish with the impious, nor my life with the men of blood,
10 V čigar rokah je vragolija, njihova desnica pa je polna podkupnin.
in whose hands are iniquities: their right hand has been filled by bribes.
11 Toda kar se mene tiče, jaz bom hodil v svoji neokrnjenosti. Odkupi me in bodi mi usmiljen.
But as for me, I have been walking in my innocence. Redeem me, and have mercy on me.
12 Moje stopalo stoji na ravnem kraju. V skupnostih bom blagoslavljal Gospoda.
My foot has stood firm in the straight path. In the churches, I will bless you, O Lord.
