Zaburi 142

1 Maskil mar Daudi. Kane en ei bur. Lamo. Aywak matek ne Jehova Nyasaye; atingʼo dwonda ne Jehova Nyasaye mondo okecha.

“A psalm of David; a prayer, when he was in the cave” I cry unto the LORD with my voice; With my voice to the LORD do I make my supplication.

2 Ahulone gik mathaga duto; anyise chandruokna duto ka abet e nyime.

I pour out my complaint before him; I declare before him my distress.

3 E kinde ma chunya chandore e iya, to in ema ingʼeyo yor konyruokna. E bugo matut ma awuothoe ji osechikonae obadho.

When my spirit is overwhelmed within me, Thou knowest my path! In the way which I walk, they have hid a snare for me.

4 Rang batha korachwich; mondo ine kaonge ngʼama dewa. Aonge kar pondo; bende aonge ngʼama rito ngimana.

I look on my right hand, and behold, But no man knoweth me; Refuge faileth me; No one careth for me.

5 Aywakni, yaye Jehova Nyasaye; awachoni niya, “In e kar pondona, kendo in e pokna e piny joma ngima.”

I cry unto thee, O LORD! I say, Thou art my refuge, My portion in the land of the living.

6 Yie iwinj ywakna, nimar an-gi chandruok maduongʼ; resa e lwet joma lawa nimar gitek moloya mabor.

Attend to my cry, for I am brought very low; Deliver me from my persecutors, For they prevail against me!

7 Gonya e twech ma antie, mondo apak nyingi. Eka joma kare biro chokore buta nikech ber misetimona.

Bring me out of prison, That I may praise thy name! The righteous shall gather around me, When thou shalt show me thy favor.
