Zaburi 116
1 Ahero Jehova Nyasaye nikech nowinjo kwayona; nowinjo ywakna kane adwaro kech.
I 'ahav ·affectionately love· Adonai, because he sh'ma ·hears obeys· my voice, and my cries for mercy.
2 Nikech ne ochikona ite, abiro luonge kinde duto ma angima.
Because he has turned his ear to me, therefore I will call on him as long as I live.
The cords of death surrounded me, the pains of Sheol ·Place of the dead· got a hold of me. I found trouble and sorrow. (Sheol h7585)
4 Eka naluongo nying Jehova Nyasaye, ne aywakne niya, “Resa, yaye Jehova Nyasaye!”
Then I called on Adonai’s name: “Adonai, I beg you, deliver my soul.”
5 Jehova Nyasaye ngʼwon kendo timo maber; Nyasachwa opongʼ gi kech.
Adonai is gracious and righteous. Yes, our God is racham ·merciful love·.
6 Jehova Nyasaye rito joma chunygi obolore; kane an-gi chando maduongʼ to ne oresa.
Adonai preserves the simple. I was brought low, and he saved me.
7 Bed abeda mos, yaye chunya, nimar Jehova Nyasaye osebedo katimoni maber ndalo duto.
Teshuvah ·Completely return· to your rest, my soul, for Adonai has dealt bountifully with you.
8 Nimar in ema isegolo chunya e tho, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, wengena bende isereso e ywak, kendo tiendena isegengʼo mondo kik okier,
For you have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.
9 isetimo kamano mondo awuothi e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, e piny joma ngima.
I will walk before Adonai in the land of the living.
10 Ne ayie; emomiyo ne awacho niya, “Sand oromo chunya.”
I trusted, therefore I said, “I was greatly afflicted.”
11 Kendo kane achiedh-nade omaka, to ne awacho niya, “Dhano duto riambo.”
I said in my haste, “All men are liars.”
12 Ere kaka dachul Jehova Nyasaye kuom berne duto mosetimona?
What will I give to Adonai for all his benefits toward me?
13 Abiro tingʼo okumba mar warruok malo kendo abiro luongo nying Jehova Nyasaye.
I will take the cup of yishu'ah ·salvation·, and call on Adonai’s name.
14 Abiro chopo singruokga ma asetimo ne Jehova Nyasaye e nyim ji duto.
I will pay my vows to Adonai, yes, in the presence of all his people.
15 Tho mar nyithind Nyasaye en gima ber miwuoro e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.
Precious in Adonai’s sight is the death of his saints.
16 Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, an jatichni adier; an jatichni, ma wuod jatichni ma nyako; isegonya mi igola e nyorochena.
Adonai, truly I am your servant. I am your servant, the son of your servant. You have freed me from my chains.
17 Abiro timoni misango mar erokamano kendo abiro luongo nying Jehova Nyasaye.
I will offer to you the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call on Adonai’s name.
18 Abiro chopo singruokga ma asetimo ne Jehova Nyasaye e nyim ji duto,

19 abiro chopogi e lache mag od Jehova Nyasaye abiro timogi e iyi, yaye Jerusalem. Pakuru Jehova Nyasaye!
in the courts of Adonai’s house, in the middle of you, Jerusalem [City of peace]. Halleluyah ·praise Yah·!
