Psalmi 26

1 Davidov. Dosudi mi pravo, Jahve, jer hodih u nedužnosti, i uzdajuć' se u Jahvu ja se ne pokolebah.

“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 Ispitaj me, Jahve, iskušaj me, istraži mi bubrege i srce.

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

3 Jer tvoja je dobrota pred očima mojim, u istini tvojoj ja hodim.

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

4 S ljudima opakim ja ne sjedim i ne svraćam podlima.

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

5 Mrsko mi je društvo zlotvora, i s bezbošcima sjesti ne želim.

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

6 U nedužnosti ruke svoje perem i obilazim žrtvenik tvoj, Jahve,

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

7 da tvoju hvalu javno razglasim i pripovijedam sva divna djela tvoja.

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

8 O Jahve, ljubim dom u kojem prebivaš i mjesto gdje slava tvoja stoluje.

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

9 Ne pogubi mi dušu s grešnicima ni život moj s krvolocima;

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

10 na rukama je njihovim zločin, a desnica im puna mita.

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

11 A ja u nedužnosti svojoj hodim: izbavi me, milostiv mi budi.

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

12 Noga mi stoji na pravu putu: u zborovima blagoslivljat ću Jahvu.

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