Examine me, Adonai, and prove me. Try my heart and my mind.

I hate the assembly of evildoers, and will not sit with the wicked.

6 Themmona kaneilou vetsahna in kakhut kasil in namaicham kahin jon e O Pakai,

I will wash my hands in innocence, so I will go about your altar, Adonai;

7 Thangvahla sapum in nakidanna ho kaphong doh e.

8 Na houin theng kangailui, Pakai, naum pi na loipi tah kilan doh na mun chu.

Adonai, I 'ahav ·affectionately love· the habitation of your house, the place where your kavod ·weighty glory· dwells.

9 Michonseho thohding neithoh sag hih in, tolthat hoto kibangin neithepmo sah hih in.

Don’t gather my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloodthirsty men;
