Zaburi 101

1 Zaburi mar Daudi. Abiro wer nikech herani gi berni; in ema abiro weroni wend pak, yaye Jehova Nyasaye.

A psalm for David himself. Mercy and judgment I will sing to thee, O Lord: I will sing,

2 Abiro neno ni aritora mondo ngimana obed malongʼo chuth, ibiro biro ira karangʼo? Abiro dak e oda gi chuny malongʼo chuth.

And I will understand in the unspotted way, when thou shalt come to me. I walked in the innocence of my heart, in the midst of my house.

3 Ok abi yie neno gimoro amora mochido gi wengena. Achayo timbe joma chunygi richo; gik maricho ok adwar winjo kata gi ita.

I did not set before my eyes any unjust thing: I hated the workers of iniquities.

4 Ok anabed gi paro mochido; bende kata paro mar timo richo ok anapar.

The perverse heart did not cleave to me: and the malignant, that turned aside from me, I would not know.

5 Ngʼato angʼata makuodho nyawadgi lingʼ-lingʼ abiro kwero mi lingʼ; ngʼato angʼata ma wangʼe tek kendo ma sungore gie chunye, ok anyal betgo amingʼa.

The man that in private detracted his neighbour, him did I persecute. With him that had a proud eye, and an unsatiable heart, I would not eat.

6 Joma jo-adiera ema abiro keto wengena kuomgi; gin ema abiro yie dak kodgi; ngʼat ma wuodhe oriere tir ema biro tiyona.

My eyes were upon the faithful of the earth, to sit with me: the man that walked in the perfect way, he served me.

7 Ok abi yiene ngʼama ohero miriambo mondo odag e oda; ngʼat moro amora mawacho miriambo ok nochungʼ e nyima.

He that worketh pride shall not dwell in the midst of my house: he that speaketh unjust things did not prosper before my eyes.

8 Okinyi kokinyi abiro tieko joma timbegi richo modak e piny. Abiro nego ngʼato angʼata matimo richo ka agologi e dala mar Jehova Nyasaye.

In the morning I put to death all the wicked of the land: that I might cut off all the workers of iniquity from the city of the Lord.
