Psalms 26

1 By David. Judge me, LORD, for I have walked in my integrity. I have trusted also in the LORD without wavering.

E HOOPONO mai oe ia'u, e Iehova, no ka mea, ua hele au me ko'u pono: Ua hilinai au ia Iehova, aole au e pahee.

2 Examine me, LORD, and prove me. Try my heart and my mind.

E huli oe ia'u, e Iehova, a e hoike ia'u; E hoao mai oe i kuu puupaa a me kuu naau.

3 For your loving kindness is before my eyes. I have walked in your truth.

No ka mea, imua o ko'u mau maka kou lokomaikai; A ma kau olelo oiaio i hele ai au.

4 I have not sat with deceitful men, neither will I go in with hypocrites.

Aole au i noho pu me ka poe hookano; Aole hoi e komo pu me ka poe hookamani wale.

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

Ua hoowahawaha au i ke anaina o ka poe hana ino; Aole hoi e noho pu au me ka poe hewa.

6 I will wash my hands in innocence, so I will go about your altar, LORD,

E holoi au i kuu mau lima me ka hala ole; Pela hoi au e hoopuni ai i kou kuahu, e Iehova;

7 that I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard and tell of all your wondrous deeds.

E hoike aku au me ka leo hoomaikai, A e hai aku hoi i kau mau hana kupaianaha a pau.

8 LORD, I love the habitation of your house, the place where your glory dwells.

E Iehova, ua makemake au i ka noho ana o kou hale, A me ka wahi e noho ai kou nani.

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

Mai houluulu oe i ko'u uhane me ka poe hewa; Aole hoi i kuu ola me na kanaka koko:

10 in whose hands is wickedness; their right hand is full of bribes.

Maloko o ko lakou mau lima ke kolohe; A ua piha i na kipe ko lakou mau lima akau.

11 But as for me, I will walk in my integrity. Redeem me, and be merciful to me.

A owau nei la, e hele au me kuu pono; E hoola mai oe ia'u, a e aloha mai ia'u.

12 My foot stands in an even place. In the congregations I will bless the LORD.

Ke ku nei kuu wawae ma kahi maniania; Maloko o na anaina e hoomaikai aku ai au ia Iehova.
