< Zaburi 143 >
1 Zaburi mar Daudi. Winj lamona, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, chik iti ne ywakna mar kech; bi mondo ikonya nikech in ja-adiera kendo itimo maber.
Hear my prayer, O Jehovah. Give ear to my supplications. In thy faithfulness answer me, and in thy righteousness.
2 Kik imi jatichni yud kum nimar onge kata ngʼato achiel matimo maber e nyimi.
And enter not into judgment with thy servant. For in thy sight no man living is righteous.
3 Jasigu lawa matek, oserodha piny nyaka e lowo; ochuna ni nyaka adag kama otimo mudho mana ka joma notho chon gi lala.
For the enemy has persecuted my soul. He has smitten my life down to the ground. He has made me to dwell in dark places as those who have been long dead.
4 Omiyo chunya chandore e iya, ee, chunya obwok.
Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me. My heart within me is desolate.
5 Aparo higni machon mosekalo; aketo pacha mos kuom tijeni duto, kendo ageno gik ma lweti osetimo.
I remember the days of old. I meditate on all thy doings. I muse on the work of thy hands.
6 Ayaroni lwetena; chunya gombi mana kaka lowo motwo gombo koth. (Sela)
I spread forth my hands to thee. My soul is as a weary land for thee. (Selah)
7 Dwoka piyo, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, nimar chunya ool. Kik ipandna wangʼi nono to dipoka achalo gi joma ridore e bur matut.
Make haste to answer me, O Jehovah, my spirit fails. Hide not thy face from me, lest I become like those who go down into the pit.
8 Mi mondo okinyi oromna gi herani ma ok rem, nimar aketo genona kuomi. Nyisa yo monego alu nimar aketo chunya duto kuomi.
Cause me to hear thy loving kindness in the morning, for in thee do I trust. Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, for I lift up my soul to thee.
9 Resa e lwet wasika, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, nimar in e jaritna.
Deliver me, O Jehovah, from my enemies. I flee to thee to hide me.
10 Puonja timo dwaroni, nimar in e Nyasacha; mi mondo Roho mari maber, otelna e yo mopie.
Teach me to do thy will, for thou are my God. Thy Spirit is good, lead me in the land of uprightness.
11 Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, kony ngimana nikech nyingi iwuon; gola oko e chandruok nikech timni maber.
Revive me, O Jehovah, for thy name's sake. In thy righteousness bring my soul out of trouble.
12 Mi wasika olingʼ thi, nikech herani ma ok rem; tiek joma kedo koda duto nimar an jatichni.
And in thy loving kindness cut off my enemies, and destroy all those who afflict my soul, for I am thy servant.
