Zaburi 123

1 Wer ma ji wero kadhi e hekalu. Atingʼo wangʼa ka arango, in ma kom lochni ni e polo.

A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. I have lifted up my eyes to You, O dweller 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 eyes of menservants [Are] to the hand of their masters, As eyes of a maidservant [Are] to the hand of her mistress, So [are] our eyes to our God YHWH, Until He favors us.

3 Yie ikechwa, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, yie ikechwa, nikech osechawa gi kinda.

Favor us, O YHWH, favor us, For we have been greatly filled with contempt,

4 Josunga osejarowa moromo acheje bende osechayowa moromo.

Our soul has been greatly filled With the scorning of the easy ones, With the contempt of the arrogant!
