Dawid babarima Salomo, Israelhene, mmebusɛm ni:
2 mamiyo iyudo rieko kod ritruok makare, kendo winjo tiend weche matut;
Ne botae ne sɛ ɛbɛkyerɛ nnipa nyansa ne ahohyɛso; ne sɛ ɛbɛboa ama wɔate nsɛm a emu dɔ ase;
3 kendo miyo idak e ngima moritore kendo mobidhore kitimo gima adiera kendo gima kare kendo mowinjore,
sɛ wobenya akwankyerɛ wɔ abrabɔ pa mu, a ɛbɛma wɔayɛ ade pa, nea ɛteɛ na ho nni asɛm;
4 gimiyo joma ngʼeyogi tin bedo mariek, kendo gimiyo jomatindo ngʼeyo tiend weche kendo pogo tiend wach.
sɛ ɛbɛma nea nʼadwene mu nnɔ anya nyansa na mmabun anya nimdeɛ ne adwene,
5 Mad jomariek chik itgi mondo owinji kendo gimedgi e puonjruokgi, to jogo mongʼeyo pogo tiend wach mad oyud gino ma chikogi,
anyansafo ntie na wɔmfa nka nea wonim ho, na nea ɔwɔ nhumu nya akwankyerɛ a
6 mondo gingʼe ngeche, sigendini, kod weche ma tiendgi tek mag jorieko.
ɛbɛma wate mmɛ ne kasammebu, anyansafo nsɛnka ne abisaa ase.
7 Luoro Jehova Nyasaye e chakruok mar ngʼeyo to joma ofuwo chayo rieko gi ritruok makare.
Awurade suro yɛ nimdeɛ mfiase, na nkwaseafo bu nyansa ne ahohyɛso animtiaa.
8 Wuoda, chik iti ni puonj wuonu, kendo kik ijwangʼ puonj mar minu.
Me ba, tie wʼagya akwankyerɛ na mpo wo na nkyerɛkyerɛ.
9 Ginibedni kaka kondo michwowo e wiyi, kendo kaka thiwni miketo e ngʼuti mondo ineri maber.
Ɛbɛyɛ wo ti anuonyam abotiri ne wo kɔn mu atweaban.
10 Wuoda, ka joricho hoyoi mondo itim marach, kik iyienegi.
Me ba, sɛ nnebɔneyɛfo twetwe wo a, mma wɔn ho kwan.
11 Kagiwachoni niya, “Bi idhi kodwa; mondo wabuti ni ngʼato wanegi, kendo wamonj kayiem nono joma onge ketho;
Sɛ wɔka se, “Bra ma yɛnkɔ; ma yɛnkɔtetɛw na yenkum obi, ma yɛnkɔtɛw ntwɛn mmɔborɔni bi;
12 mondo wamuonygi ngili ka bur liel mana ka joma omwony mangima gi bur; (Sheol )
ma yɛmmemene wɔn anikann sɛ ɔda, koraa, te sɛ wɔn a wɔkɔ ɔda mu; (Sheol )
13 wabiro yudo gik moko duto mabeyo ma nengogi tek, mi wapongʼ utewa gi gik moyaki.
yebenya nneɛma a ɛsom bo ahorow na yɛde asade ahyɛ yɛn afi ma;
14 In bende riwri kodwa e wachni, kendo wanapog gigo duto mwayako.”
fa wo ho bɛhyɛ mu, na wubenya wo kyɛfa wɔ ahonyade no mu.”
15 Wuoda, kik idhi kodgi ngangʼ kendo kik iwuoth e yoregigo,
Me ba, wo ne wɔn nnantew, mfa wo nan nsi wɔn akwan so;
16 nikech tiendgi reto piyo piyo mar timo richo kendo gimwomore mondo gichwer remo.
Wɔn anan de ntɛmpɛ kɔ bɔne mu, na wɔde ahoɔhare ka mogya gu.
17 Mano kaka en gima nono chiko obadho ka winy duto neno.
So nni mfaso sɛ obi besum nnomaafiri wɔ beae a anomaa biara hu!
18 Jogi ochiko obadho ne gin giwegi, kendo gin ema ginimokie!
Saa nnipa yi tetɛw pɛ wɔn ankasa mogya; wɔtetɛw wɔn ankasa wɔn ho!
19 Mano e giko jogo duto mohero yudo gimoro moyud e yo marach; gino kawo ngima jogo moyude.
Saa na wɔn a wodi akorɔnne akyi no awiei te; ɛma wɔhwere wɔn nkwa!
20 Rieko goyo koko matek e yore mag dala, ogoyo koko bende e kuonde chokruok;
Nyansa teɛ mu wɔ mmɔnten so, ɔma ne nne so wɔ aguabɔbea,
21 oywak kogoyo koko e akerkeke mag yore motimo koko, owuoyo e dhorangeye mag mier madongo kopenjo niya,
ɔteɛ mu wɔ afasu no atifi, ɔkasa wɔ kuropɔn no apon ano se,
22 “Nyaka karangʼo ma un joma ngʼeyogi tin nusik kuhero yoreu mag ngʼeyo matin?” Nyaka karangʼo ma jojaro pod nosik kamor, e jaro kendo joma ofuwo nosiki kochayo puonj?
“Mo adwenharefo, mobɛyɛ adwenhare akosi da bɛn? Fɛwdifo bedi fɛw akosi da bɛn? Nkwaseafo bekyi nimdeɛ akosi da bɛn?
23 Ka dine uwinj siem mara, dine abedo kodu thuolo, kendo damiyo ungʼeyo pacha.
Sɛ mutiee mʼanimka a, anka mekaa me koma mu nsɛm nyinaa kyerɛɛ mo ma muhuu me nsusuwii.
24 To nikech ne udaga kane aluongo kendo onge ngʼama nodewa kane adwaro konyou,
Nanso sɛ muyii mo aso, bere a mefrɛɛ mo na amfa obiara ho, bere a meteɛɛ me nsa mu,
25 nimar ne udagi puonj maga duto kendo ne ok uwinjo siem mara.
sɛ mopoo mʼafotu, na moampɛ mʼanimka nti,
26 An to ananyieru bangʼe ka un e chandruok; Anajaru ajara ka masira oloyou,
me nso mɛserew mo wɔ mo amanehunu mu; sɛ abɛbrɛsɛ bi bu fa mo so a, midi mo ho fɛw,
27 ka masira machalo yamb ahiti obiro kuomu, kendo ka chandruok oyweyou ka yamb kalausi. Ka lit kod thagruok ohingou.
sɛ abɛbrɛsɛ bi bu fa mo so te sɛ ahum, na amanehunu bi bɔ fa mo so sɛ mfɛtɛ, na awerɛhow ne ɔhaw mene mo a,
28 Giniluonga, to ok anadwokgi; ginimanya to ok giniyuda.
“Afei wɔbɛfrɛ me, nanso meremmua; wɔbɛhwehwɛ me, nanso wɔrenhu me.
29 Kaka ne ok gidwar puonj kendo ok negiyiero luoro Jehova Nyasaye,
Esiane sɛ wokyii nimdeɛ na wɔampɛ sɛ wobesuro Awurade,
30 Kaka ne ok giyie gi puonjna kendo gidagi siem mara,
sɛ wɔpoo mʼafotu, na wobuu me nteɛso animtiaa nti,
31 kuom mano ginicham olemo mag yoregi kendo giniyiengʼ gi olemo mar riekogi maricho.
wobedi wɔn akwan so aba; na wɔn nhyehyɛe mu aduan bɛmee wɔn.
32 Nikech yore mobam mag bayo mag jogo mangʼeyogi tin noneg-gi, kendo bedo ma ok odewo gimoro mar joma ofuwo notiekgi.
Na ntetekwaafo asoɔden bekum wɔn, na nkwaseafo tirimudɛ bɛsɛe wɔn;
33 To ngʼato angʼata mawinjo wachna nodag gi kwe kendo mayom, maonge luoro mar hinyruok.
Nanso obiara a obetie me no, ɔbɛtena ase asomdwoe mu na ne ho bɛtɔ no a ɔrensuro ɔhaw biara.”
