1By David. Judge me, O Jehovah, for I in mine integrity have walked, And in Jehovah I have trusted, I slide not.
1¶ Na Rawiri. Whakawakia ahau, e Ihowa, kua haere nei hoki ahau i te tapatahitanga o toku ngakau: kua whakawhirinaki ano ki a Ihowa, na, e kore e paheke.
2Try me, O Jehovah, and prove me, Purified [are] my reins and my heart.
2Tirohia iho ahau, e Ihowa, whakamatauria ahau, kia kitea oku whatumanawa me toku ngakau.
3For Thy kindness [is] before mine eyes, And I have walked habitually in Thy truth.
3Kei mua hoki tou atawhai i oku kanohi; kua haere nei ahau i tou pono.
4I have not sat with vain men, And with dissemblers I enter not.
4Kahore ahau i noho tahi ki nga tangata horihori; e kore ano ahau e tomo tahi me nga tangata tinihanga.
5I have hated the assembly of evil doers, And with the wicked I sit not.
5Kino tonu ahau ki te whakaminenga o nga kaimahi i te he, e kore ano ahau e noho tahi ki te hunga kino.
6I wash in innocency my hands, And I compass Thine altar, O Jehovah.
6¶ Ka horoia e ahau oku ringa ki te harakore, ka taiawhio ai i tau aata, e Ihowa;
7To sound with a voice of confession, And to recount all Thy wonders.
7A ka rangona toku reo e whakamoemiti ana, e whakapuaki ana i au mahi whakamiharo katoa.
8Jehovah, I have loved the habitation of Thy house, And the place of the tabernacle of Thine honour.
8E Ihowa, kua aroha nei ahau ki tou whare nohoanga, ki te wahi e nohoia ana e tou kororia.
9Do not gather with sinners my soul, And with men of blood my life,
9Kei huia toku wairua ki roto ki te hunga hara, me toku ora ki roto ki te hunga toto.
10In whose hand [is] a wicked device, And their right hand [is] full of bribes.
10He mahi nanakia hoki ta o ratou ringa; ki tonu o ratou matau i te utu whakapati.
11And I, in mine integrity I walk, Redeem me, and favour me.
11Ko ahau ia, ka haere i runga i toku tapatahi: hokona ahau, tohungia hoki ahau.
12My foot hath stood in uprightness, In assemblies I bless Jehovah!
12E tu ana toku waewae i te wahi tika: ka whakapaingia a Ihowa e ahau i roto i nga whakaminenga.
