Ywagruok 5
1 Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, parie gima osetimorenwa; rangwa mondo ineye wichkuot ma wan-go.
Remember, O LORD, what is come upon us; behold, and see our reproach.
2 Girkeni mawa osemi jopinje mamoko, to miechwa to osekaw gi ji ma welo.
Our inheritance is turned unto strangers, our houses unto aliens.
3 Wasedongʼ kiye, to minewa chalo mon ma chwogi otho.
We are become orphans and fatherless, our mothers are as widows.
4 Nyaka wangʼiew pi mawamodho; yiendwa ma wachwako nyaka wachul nengo eka wayudgi.
We have drunk our water for money; our wood cometh to us for price.
5 Jogo malawowa nikodwa machiegni; waol kendo waonge yweyo.
To our very necks we are pursued; we labour, and have no rest.
6 Ne wachiwore ni Misri kod Asuria mondo wayud chiemo moromo.
We have given the hand to Egypt, and to Assyria, to have bread enough;
7 Kwerewa notimo richo, to koro gionge, to wan ema ikumowa kargi.
Our fathers have sinned, and are not; and we have borne their iniquities.
8 Wasumbini ema tinde otelonwa, kendo onge ngʼama resowa e lwetgi.
Servants rule over us; there is none to deliver us out of their hand.
9 Wayudo chiembwa e yo matek manyalo hinyo ngimawa nikech lweny manie thim.
We get our bread with the peril of our lives because of the sword of the wilderness.
10 Dendwa owre mana ka mach nikech tuo ma kech kelonwa.
Our skin is hot like an oven because of the burning heat of famine.
11 Mon osemak githuon e Sayun, to nyiri e miech Juda.
They have ravished the women in Zion, the maidens in the cities of Judah.
12 Jodong gwengʼ oselier gi lwetegi e yien, to jomadongo ok osemi luor.
Princes are hanged up by their hand; the faces of elders are not honoured.
13 Jomatindo tiyo matek kuonde mag rego, to yawuowi chandore ka gitingʼo yien mapek.
The young men have borne the mill, and the children have stumbled under the wood.
14 Jodongo onge e dhoranga dala maduongʼ; kendo jomatindo oseweyo wero wendegi.
The elders have ceased from the gate, the young men from their music.
15 Mor oserumo e chunywa; miendwa oselokore ywak.
The joy of our heart is ceased; our dance is turned into mourning.
16 Osimbo mar duongʼ oselwar oa e wiwa. Yaye, masira omakowa, nikech wasetimo richo.
The crown is fallen from our head; woe unto us! for we have sinned.
17 Nikech gik ma osetimorenwagi, chunywa ool kendo wengewa osejony,
For this our heart is faint, for these things our eyes are dim;
18 nimar got Sayun, osejwangʼ modongʼ gunda ma ondiegi ema kwayoe.
For the mountain of Zion, which is desolate, the foxes walk upon it.
19 Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, lochni osiko manyaka chiengʼ kendo ochwere e tiengʼ ka tiengʼ.
Thou, O LORD, art enthroned for ever, Thy throne is from generation to generation.
20 Ere gima omiyo wiyi wil kodwa kinde duto? Ere gima omiyo ijwangʼowa kuom kinde malach kamano?
Wherefore dost Thou forget us for ever, and forsake us so long time?
21 Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, dwogwa iri; kendo ndalowa obed manyien kaka ne wan chon.
Turn Thou us unto Thee, O LORD, and we shall be turned; renew our days as of old.
22 Ka ok itimonwa kamano, to nyiso ni isedagiwa kendo in gi mirima kodwa ma ok nyal pim.
Thou canst not have utterly rejected us, and be exceeding wroth against us!
