< Zaburi 123 >
1 Wer ma ji wero kadhi e hekalu. Atingʼo wangʼa ka arango, in ma kom lochni ni e polo.
A Song of degrees. Unto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens.
2 Mana kaka wenge wasumbini rango lwet ruodhgi, kendo kaka wenge jatich ma nyako mar ot rango lwet ruodhe madhako, e kaka wengewa rango Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa nyaka chop okechwa.
Behold, as the eyes of servants [look] unto the hand of their masters, [and] as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our eyes [wait] upon the LORD our God, until that he have mercy upon us.
3 Yie ikechwa, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, yie ikechwa, nikech osechawa gi kinda.
Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us: for we are exceedingly filled with contempt.
4 Josunga osejarowa moromo acheje bende osechayowa moromo.
Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at ease, [and] with the contempt of the proud.
