By David.

1 Judge me, Yahweh, for I have walked in my integrity.

I have trusted also in Yahweh without wavering.

2 Examine me, Yahweh, and prove me.

Try my heart and my mind.

3 For your loving kindness is before my eyes.

I have walked in your truth.

4 I have not sat with deceitful men,

neither will I go in with hypocrites.

5 I hate the assembly of evildoers,

and will not sit with the wicked.

6 I will wash my hands in innocence,

so I will go about your altar, Yahweh,

7 that I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard

and tell of all your wondrous deeds.

8 Yahweh, I love the habitation of your house,

the place where your glory dwells.

9 Don’t gather my soul with sinners,

nor my life with bloodthirsty men

10 in whose hands is wickedness;

their right hand is full of bribes.

11 But as for me, I will walk in my integrity.

Redeem me, and be merciful to me.

12 My foot stands in an even place.

In the congregations I will bless Yahweh.

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.

2 Tirohia iho ahau, e Ihowa, whakamatauria ahau, kia kitea oku whatumanawa me toku ngakau.

3 Kei mua hoki tou atawhai i oku kanohi; kua haere nei ahau i tou pono.

4 Kahore ahau i noho tahi ki nga tangata horihori; e kore ano ahau e tomo tahi me nga tangata tinihanga.

5 Kino tonu ahau ki te whakaminenga o nga kaimahi i te he, e kore ano ahau e noho tahi ki te hunga kino.

6 Ka horoia e ahau oku ringa ki te harakore, ka taiawhio ai i tau aata, e Ihowa;

7 A ka rangona toku reo e whakamoemiti ana, e whakapuaki ana i au mahi whakamiharo katoa.

8 E Ihowa, kua aroha nei ahau ki tou whare nohoanga, ki te wahi e nohoia ana e tou kororia.

9 Kei huia toku wairua ki roto ki te hunga hara, me toku ora ki roto ki te hunga toto.

10 He mahi nanakia hoki ta o ratou ringa; ki tonu o ratou matau i te utu whakapati.

11 Ko ahau ia, ka haere i runga i toku tapatahi: hokona ahau, tohungia hoki ahau.

12 E tu ana toku waewae i te wahi tika: ka whakapaingia a Ihowa e ahau i roto i nga whakaminenga.
