Psalms 26
1 Yahweh, show that I (am innocent/have not done what is wrong). I always do what is right; I have trusted in you and never doubted [that you would help me].
David kah Aw BOEIPA, kai he lai han tloek lah. Thincaknah neh ka cet tih BOEIPA te ka pangtung dongah ka dinghae pawh.
2 Yahweh, examine what I have done and test me; thoroughly evaluate what I think [IDM].
Aw BOEIPA kai he n'loepdak lamtah kai n'noemcai lah. Ka kuel neh lungbuei he picai la picai mai.
3 I never forget that you faithfully love me, I conduct my life according to your truth.
Ka mik dongah na sitlohnah ka hmaitang tih na oltak dongah ka cet.
4 I do not spend my time with liars and I stay away from hypocrites.
Hlang taengah a poeyoek la ka ngol pawt tih aka thuhrhawk neh ka yok pawh.
5 I do not like to be with evil people, and I avoid wicked people.
Thaehuet rhoek kah a ngolhlung te ka thiinah tih halang rhoek taengah ka ngol pawh.
6 Yahweh, I wash my hands to show that I (am innocent/have not done what was wrong). As I join with others marching around your altar,
Ka kut he cimnah neh ka silh tih, BOEIPA nang kah hmueihtuk te ka hil he,
7 we sing songs to thank you, and we tell others the wonderful things that you [have done].
Uemonah ol te ka doek tih namah kah khobaerhambae boeih te ka tae.
8 Yahweh, I love [to be in] the temple where you live, in the place where your glory appears.
Aw BOEIPA, na lum-im khuirhung neh na thangpomnah dungtlungim hmuen te ka lungnah.
9 Do not get rid of me like you get rid of sinners; do not cause me to die like you cause those who murder [MTY] people to die,
Ka hinglu he hlangtholh rhoek neh, ka hingnah he thii aka hal hlang rhoek taengla coi boeh.
10 and people who [SYN] are ready to do wicked things and people who are always taking bribes.
Amih kut dongah boethae om tih a bantang kut ah kapbaih a poem uh.
11 But as for me, I always try to do what is right. So be kind to me and rescue me.
Tedae kai tah kamah thincaknah neh ka cet. Kai n'lat lamtah kai n'rhen lah.
12 I stand in places where I am safe, and when [all your people] gather together, I praise you.
Ka kho he tlangkol ah pai tih khangkhung lakli ah BOEIPA te a yoethen pai ni.
