Zaburi 109
1 Kuom jatend wer. Zaburi mar Daudi. Yaye Nyasaye ma apako, kik ilingʼ,
For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. God of my praise, do not remain silent,
2 nimar joma timbegi richo gi jo-miriambo osemonja gi wechegi; gisewuoyo kuomwa marach, adier gisewacho miriambo kuoma.
for they have opened the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of deceit against me. They have spoken to me with a lying tongue.
3 Gilwora koni gi koni gi weche mag achaya; gibuka maonge gima omiyo.
They have also surrounded me with words of hatred, and fought against me without a cause.
4 An aherogi to gin to gimon koda. Gitimona kamano kata obedo ni an to alemonegi.
In return for my love, they are my adversaries; but I am in prayer.
5 Gichula rach kar ber, kod achaya kar osiep.
They have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.
6 Ket ngʼat marach mondo oked kod jasika; we jadonj ne ji mondo ochungʼ kode e bura.
Set a wicked man over him. Let an adversary stand at his right hand.
7 Kiyale to mi mondo oyude gi ketho, kendo kata lemo molamo onego onyis kethone.
When he is judged, let him come out guilty. Let his prayer be turned into sin.
8 Mad ngʼad ndalone dok manok; kendo mad ngʼat machielo kaw tije.
Let his days be few. Let another take his office.
9 Mad nyithinde dongʼ kiye kendo chiege dongʼ dhako ma chwore otho.
Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.
10 Mad nyithinde lokre jokwecho mabayo abaya; mad riembgi gia koda ka e miechgi mosekethore.
Let his children be wandering beggars. Let them be sought from their ruins.
11 Mad jagope moro mak gige duto ma en-go kendo mad joma welo oyak mwandu duto moseloso.
Let the creditor seize all that he has. Let strangers plunder the fruit of his labor.
12 Onego ngʼato kik timne ngʼwono kata kecho nyithinde modongʼ kiye.
Let there be no one to extend kindness to him, neither let there be anyone to have pity on his fatherless children.
13 Kothe duto mondo kargi olal nono, kendo nying-gi oruchi kik bedi e tiengʼ mabiro.
Let his posterity be cut off. In the generation following let their name be blotted out.
14 Mad Jehova Nyasaye sik kaparo richo mane wuonegi otimo; kendo mad richo min kik ruchi.
Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered by the LORD. Do not let the sin of his mother be blotted out.
15 Richogi mondo osiki e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, eka mondo ongʼad kargi oko chuth e piny.
Let them be before the LORD continually, that he may cut off their memory from the earth;
16 Nimar kane ongima to ne ok odewo timo ngʼwono, kar timo kamano to nosando jodhier, kaachiel gi joma ochando gi joma chunygi lit; nosandogi malit nyaka ne githo.
because he did not remember to show kindness, but persecuted the poor and needy man, the broken in heart, to kill them.
17 Nohero kwongʼo ji to koro mad kwongʼneno dogne; ne ok ohero gwedho ji omiyo koro mad gweth bed mabor kode.
Yes, he loved cursing, and it came to him. He did not delight in blessing, and it was far from him.
18 Ne orwako kwongʼ ka nangane; mad kwongʼno koro donji e dende ka pi, mad gibud chokene ka mo.
He clothed himself also with cursing as with his garment. It came into his inward parts like water, like oil into his bones.
19 Mad ochal nanga moumogo dende duto, kata kamba motweyego nyaka chiengʼ.
Let it be to him as the clothing with which he covers himself, for the belt that is always around him.
20 Mano ema mondo obed chudo, ma Jehova Nyasaye chulo joma donjona; mano e kaka onego otim ne joma wuoyo marach kuoma.
This is the reward of my adversaries from the LORD, of those who speak evil against my soul.
21 To in, yaye Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto, timna maber nikech nyingi; konya nikech ber mar herani.
But deal with me, GOD the Lord, for your name’s sake, because your loving kindness is good, deliver me;
22 Nimar adhier kendo achando, kendo chunya winjo marach e iya.
for I am poor and needy. My heart is wounded within me.
23 Ndalona rumo mos mos ka tipo mar odhiambo kendo yamo uka ka det bonyo.
I fade away like an evening shadow. I am shaken off like a locust.
24 Chongena onyosore nikech onge gima acham, kendo adhero alokora choke lilo.
My knees are weak through fasting. My body is thin and lacks fat.
25 Alokora gima ijaro ne joma donjona; ka ginena to gitwenyona umgi ka gigoyona siboi.
I have also become a reproach to them. When they see me, they shake their head.
26 Konya, yaye Jehova Nyasaye Nyasacha, resa kaluwore gi herani.
Help me, LORD, my God. Save me according to your loving kindness;
27 Mi mondo gingʼe ni achal kama nikech lweti, mi gingʼe ni lweti ema osetime, yaye Jehova Nyasaye.
that they may know that this is your hand; that you, LORD, have done it.
28 Gin ginyalo kwongʼa to angʼeyo ni in ibiro gwedha; ka gimonja to ibiro kuodo wigi, to jatichni to biro bedo mamor.
They may curse, but you bless. When they arise, they will be shamed, but your servant shall rejoice.
29 Wichkuot maduongʼ biro mako joma donjona kendo gibiro rwako wichkuot ka kandho.
Let my adversaries be clothed with dishonor. Let them cover themselves with their own shame as with a robe.
30 Abiro dhialo Jehova Nyasaye malich gi dhoga; abiro pake e dier oganda maduongʼ.
I will give great thanks to the LORD with my mouth. Yes, I will praise him among the multitude.
31 Nimar ochungʼ e bat korachwich mar ngʼat mochando, mondo ores ngimane kuom joma ngʼadone buch tho.
For he will stand at the right hand of the needy, to save him from those who judge his soul.
