1 Wer ma ji wero kadhi e hekalu. Mar Daudi. Ka dine bed ni Jehova Nyasaye ok jakorwa, jo-Israel mondo owach kamano,

A Song of the Ascents, by David. Save [for] Jehovah — who hath been for us, (Pray, let Israel say),

2 ka dine bed ni Jehova Nyasaye ok jakorwa kane ji omonjowa,

Save [for] Jehovah — who hath been for us, In the rising up of man against us,

3 e kinde mane mirima mabebni ka mach omakogi kodwa, to dine gimwonyowa ngili;

Then alive they had swallowed us up, In the burning of their anger against us,

4 ataro dine odinonwa, ee, kodh yamo dine oywerowa,

Then the waters had overflowed us, The stream passed over our soul,

5 kendo pi maringo matek dine odhi kodwa.

Then passed over our soul had the proud waters.

6 Pak mondo odogne Jehova Nyasaye, ma ok oseyie mondo gikidhwa gi lekegi.

Blessed [is] Jehovah who hath not given us, A prey to their teeth.

7 Wasetony mana ka winyo mowuok e wino mar jachik winy; wino osechodi, to wan wasetony.

Our soul as a bird hath escaped from a snare of fowlers, The snare was broken, and we have escaped.

8 Konyruokwa ni e nying Jehova Nyasaye, Jachwech polo gi piny.

Our help [is] in the name of Jehovah, Maker of the heavens and earth!
