1 Weche Mag Ndalo 16
1 Negikelo Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye mi gikete ei hema mane Daudi ogurone, bangʼe negitimo misengini miwangʼo pep kod misengini mag lalruok e nyim Nyasaye.
They brought the Sacred Chest [to Gibeon] and put it inside the Sacred Tent that David had [told his workers to] set up. Then they brought offerings to be completely burned [on the altar] and offerings to enable them to maintain fellowship [with God].
2 Kane Daudi osetieko chiwo misango miwangʼo pep kod misango mar lalruok, ne ogwedho jo-Israel ka oluongo nying Jehova Nyasaye.
When David had finished presenting all those offerings, he [asked Yahweh to] bless the people.
3 Bangʼe ngʼato ka ngʼato ma ja-Israel, dhako kata dichwo nomiyo makati achiel, gi ringʼo mayom kod olembe motwo mongʼin.
He gave a loaf of bread, some dates, and some raisins to every Israeli man and woman [who was there].
4 Noyiero jo-Lawi moko mondo oti e nyim Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye, mondo olem kendo ogo erokamano ka gipako Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel.
Then David appointed some of the descendants of Levi to stand in front of [the Sacred Tent in which] the Sacred Chest [had been placed], to lead the people who worshiped and thanked and praised Yahweh, the God of the Israeli people.
5 Asaf ne jatendgi, Zekaria jalupne, kiluwogi kod Jeyel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Matithia, Eliab, Benaya, Obed-Edom gi Jeyel mane jogo orutu gi nyatiti ka Asaf to ne dwongʼo ongengʼo
Asaph, who played the cymbals, was their leader. Zechariah was his assistant. The other descendants of Levi [who helped Asaph] were Jaaziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Benaiah, Obed-Edom, and Jeiel. They played lyres and harps.
6 to Benaya kod Jahaziel ma jodolo to ne goyo turumbete e sa ka sa e nyim sanduk singruok mar Nyasaye.
Benaiah and Jahaziel were priests who blew trumpets frequently in front of [the Sacred Tent in which was] the Sacred Chest.
7 Chiengʼno ema ne Daudi omiyo Asaf kod jowetene zaburini mar goyo erokamano ni Jehova Nyasaye kama:
On that day, David gave to Asaph and his helpers this psalm to praise Yahweh:
8 Pakuru Jehova Nyasaye, luonguru nyinge, landuru ne ogendini duto gima osetimo.
Thank God, and pray to him [MTY]. Tell the people of all nations what he has done.
9 Werneuru, pakeuru gi wende, nyisuru kuom tijene duto miwuoro.
Sing to him; sing songs to praise him. Tell about all his miraculous deeds.
10 Nyinge maler nigi duongʼ, chuny joma manyo Jehova Nyasaye mondo obed mamor.
Be glad that you belong to him [MTY]; those who want to know Yahweh better should rejoice.
11 Ranguru Jehova Nyasaye gi tekone, dwaruru wangʼe kinde duto.
Trust in Yahweh and in his power; continually seek to get help from him.
12 Paruru gik miwuoro mosetimo, honni mage kod buche mosengʼado,
Do not forget the wonderful things that he has done, the miracles and the just laws that he has given to us.
13 yaye, un nyikwa Israel jatichne, yaye, un yawuot Jakobo joge moyiero.
We people are the descendants of his servant Jacob; we are the people of Israel whom he has chosen.
14 En e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa; buchene ni e piny duto.
Yahweh is our God. His just/fair laws are known by people throughout the world.
15 Oparo singruokne nyaka chiengʼ, weche mane osingo e tienge tara,
He never forgets the agreement that he has made: he made a promise that will last for 1,000 generations.
16 Singruok mane otimo gi Ibrahim, muma mane okwongʼorego ni Isaka.
That is the agreement that he made with Abraham, and he repeated that agreement to Isaac.
17 Ne ogure ne Jakobo kaka chik, kendo nogure ni Israel kaka singruok mochwere:
It was an agreement for the Israeli people, and he wanted that agreement to endure forever.
18 Nowacho niya, “Anamiyi piny Kanaan kaka girkeni mari.”
What he said was, “I will give the Canaan region to you, to belong to you [and your descendants forever].”
19 Kane pod gin ji manok e kar rombgi, ne ginok ahinya kendo ne gin welo e pinyno,
[He said that to them] when there were only a few of them, a tiny group of people who were living in that land (like strangers/that belonged to other people);
20 ne giwuotho e kind ogendini mopogore, ka gidhi e pinyruodhi mopogore opogore.
they continued to wander from one place to another, from one kingdom to another.
21 Ne ok oyie mondo ngʼato osandgi, nokwero ruodhi kowachonegi niya,
But he did not allow others to oppress them, and he warned kings by saying to them,
22 “Kik umul joga ma awiro, kik uhiny jonabi maga.”
“Do not harm the people whom I have chosen! Do not harm my prophets!”
23 Weruru ne Jehova Nyasaye un ji duto modak e piny, landuru warruokne odiechiengʼ kodiechiengʼ.
You people throughout the world, sing to Yahweh. Every day proclaim [to others] that he has saved us.
24 Huluru duongʼne e kind ogendini kendo landuru tijene miwuoro ne ji duto.
Tell the people of the nations that he is great; tell all the people-groups the marvelous things [that he has done].
25 Nimar Jehova Nyasaye duongʼ kendo owinjore gi pak; onego omiye luor moloyo nyiseche mamoko duto.
Yahweh is great, and he deserves to be praised very much. He should be revered more than all the gods,
26 Nikech nyiseche duto mag ogendini gin mana gik ma dhano oloso, to Jehova Nyasaye ema nochweyo polo.
because all the gods that the [other] people-groups [worship] are only idols, but Yahweh [is truly great; he] created the skies.
27 Duongʼ kod pak nitiere e nyime; teko kod mor nitiere kar dakne.
He is glorious and majestic; his power and joy fill his Sacred Tent.
28 Pakuru Jehova Nyasaye, yaye ogendini manie piny, wachuru ni Jehova Nyasaye duongʼ kendo en gi teko.
You people in nations all over the world, praise Yahweh! Praise Yahweh for his glorious power [HEN]!
29 Miuru Jehova Nyasaye duongʼ mowinjore gi nyinge. Keluru chiwo kendo ubi ire mondo. Ulam Jehova Nyasaye e lerne marieny mar berne.
Praise Yahweh like he [MTY] deserves to be praised. Bring an offering and come to his Sacred Tent. Worship Yahweh because he is holy.
30 Un ji duto manie piny, beduru gi e nyime! Piny osegur motegno kendo ok noyienge.
Everyone on the earth should tremble in front of Yahweh. He put the earth firmly [in its place]; and nothing ever will be able to move/shake it.
31 Polo mondo obed moil, piny mondo obed mamor, we mondo giwachne e dier ogendini niya, “Jehova Nyasaye olocho!”
Everything in the sky and on the earth should be happy. People [everywhere] should say, “Yahweh is our king!”
32 Nam kod gik moko duto man e iye bende omor, beduru mamor un pewe kod gik manie iwu.
The oceans and all the creatures that are in the oceans should shout to praise him; the fields and everything that is in them should rejoice.
33 Bangʼe yiende manie bungu nower, giniwer gi mor e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, nikech obiro ngʼadone piny bura.
When they do that, [it will be as though] the trees in the forest will sing joyfully in front of Yahweh. That will happen when he comes to judge [everyone on] [MTY] the earth.
34 Gouru erokamano ne Jehova Nyasaye nikech ober; kendo herane osiko manyaka chiengʼ.
Thank Yahweh, because [everything that he does is] good. He faithfully loves us forever.
35 Ywaguru niya, “Reswa aa Nyasaye ma Jawarwa, chokwa kendo reswa kuom ogendini, mondo mi wadwok erokamano ne nyingi maler kendo wabed mamor kwapaki.”
Say to him, “God, you are the one who rescues us, so gather us together and save us from [the armies of] other nations. When you do that, we will thank you [MTY], and we will be happy to praise you.”
36 Pakuru Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel mochwere manyaka chiengʼ. Eka ji duto nowacho niya, “Amin” kendo ni “Opak Jehova Nyasaye.”
Praise Yahweh, the God of us Israeli people, He has always existed, and he will exist forever. After the people [finished singing that song], they all said, “(Amen/May it be so)!”, and they praised Yahweh.
37 Daudi ne oweyo Asaf kod jotich kaachiel kode e nyim Sandug Singruok mar Jehova Nyasaye mondo giti kanyo ndalo duto mana kaka ne dwarore pile ka pile kendo odiechiengʼ ka odiechiengʼ.
Then David left Asaph and the other members of his clan there in front of [the tent in which] Yahweh’s Sacred Chest [had been placed]. He told them that they must do their work there every day.
38 Ne oweyo bende Obed-Edom kod jowetene piero auchiel gaboro mondo joti kodgi. Obed-Edom wuod Jeduthun to gi Hosa bende ne jorit rangeye.
David also left Obed-Edom and 68 other descendants of Levi to work with them. Hosah and Obed-Edom guarded [the entrances of the Sacred Tent].
39 Daudi noweyo Zadok jadolo kod jowetene ma jodolo e nyim hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye e kama otingʼore gi malo man Gibeon,
David also told Zadok the [Supreme] Priest and the other priests who worked with him to remain in front of Yahweh’s Sacred Tent, which was still at the place where the Israeli people worshiped [God there] in Gibeon [city].
40 mondo gichiwne Jehova Nyasaye misengini pile pile e kendo mar misango miwangʼo pep, gitim kamano okinyi kod odhiambo mana kaka ondikgi duto e Chik Jehova Nyasaye mano mi jo-Israel.
Every morning and every evening they burned offerings on the altar, obeying the rules/laws that had been written [by Moses], rules/laws which Yahweh had given to the Israeli people.
41 Kaachiel kodgi ne gin Heman gi Jeduthun kod joma moko manoyier kendo oluong gi nyingegi mondo gi dwokne Jehova Nyasaye erokamano, “nikech herane osiko manyaka chiengʼ.”
With them were Heman and Jeduthun and other descendants of Levi. They [MTY] were chosen to sing songs to praise Yahweh because he faithfully loves his people forever.
42 Heman kod Jeduthun to ne tijgi en goyo turumbete kod ongengʼo kod goyo thumbe mamoko mag wend Nyasaye. Yawuot Jeduthun to ne rito rangach.
Heman and Jeduthun were appointed to play the trumpets and cymbals when [the other descendants of Levi sang sacred songs]. The sons of Jeduthun were appointed to guard the gates [of the Sacred Tent].
43 Eka ji duto noa ka ngʼato ka ngʼato dok e dalane, kendo Daudi bende nodhi dalane mondo ogwedh joge.
Then all the people left. They returned to their homes, and David returned home to [ask Yahweh to] bless his family.
