10 Moko kuomgi nobet e mudho, kendo e tipo mar tho, ne gin joma thagore motwe gi nyoroche mag chuma,
Some sat in complete darkness, prisoners of misery and bound with iron chains,
11 nimar ne gingʼanyo giweyo weche Nyasaye kendo ne gichayo rieko mar Nyasaye Man Malo Moloyo.

He only had to speak to cause a stormy wind that stirred up towering waves,
26 Apaka nodirogi malo e kor yamo, kendo nonyumogi kuonde matut mogik; mi chir mane gin-go noleny nono kane ginie masira ma kamano.
lifting the ships high in the air and then plunging them down. The sailors were so terrified that their courage melted away.
27 Ne gipuore kendo gitagore ka joma omer; kendo pachgi nolalnegi.

33 Ne omiyo aore olokore kuonde motwo, sokni mamol nolokore ongoro,
He dries up rivers and turns the land into a desert; the water springs stop flowing and the earth turns dry and dusty.
34 kendo lowo manyak maber nodoko lowo motimo chumbi, maonge tich nikech timbe mamono mag joma nodak kuondego.
Fruitful ground becomes a salty wasteland because of the wickedness of those living there.
35 To bende nomiyo piny ongoro odoko yewni mag pi, kendo lowo motwo nolokore sokni mamol;
But he also turns around and makes pools of water in the desert, and makes water springs flow in a dry and dusty land.
36 nokelo joma odenyo mondo odag kuondego, kendo negigero dala kama neginyalo dakie.
He brings hungry people to live there—a place they can build their cities.
37 Ne gipuro puothe kendo ne gipidho puothe mzabibu, mane ochiego cham maber;
They sow their fields and plant their vineyards, producing a good harvest.
38 ne ogwedhogi, kendo negidoko ji mangʼeny ahinya, bende ne ok oyie mondo jambgi odog piny.
He takes care of them, and their numbers increase dramatically—their cattle too!
39 Bangʼe achien kwan-gi nodok matin kendo ne odwokgi piny nikech sand gi masiche kod kuyo;
When they become few, brought low by oppression, misery, and sorrow,
40 Jal ma olo mirimbe kuom ruodhi nomiyo gibayo koni gi koni e thim.
He pours out his contempt on their leaders, making them wander, lost in the wilderness.
41 To jochan to noreso e thagruokgi, kendo nomiyo joutegi onya ka rombe.

42 Joma kare neno kendo gidoko mamor; To joma timbegi richo dhogi moko.
Those who live right will observe what is happening and be glad, but the wicked will be silenced.
43 Ngʼama riek mondo omak wechegi maber, kendo opar matut kuom (hera) maduongʼ mar Jehova Nyasaye.
Those who are wise will pay attention to all this, and thoughtfully reflect on the Lord's trustworthy love.
