Zaburi 144
1 Mar Daudi. Pak obed ni Jehova Nyasaye ma en Lwandana, pakeuru en motego lwetena ne lweny, kendo en momiyo lith lwetena bedo mongʼith e kedo.
Blessed be Jehovah, my rock, who teaches my hands to war, and my fingers to fight,
2 En Nyasacha ma jahera kendo en ohingana, bende en kar pondona kendo en jakonyna. En okumbana ma agengʼorago, kendo en ema oloyona joma ni e bwoya.
my loving kindness, and my fortress, my high tower, and my deliverer, my shield, and he in whom I take refuge, who subdues my people under me.
3 Dhano to en angʼo, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, momiyo iketo chunyi kuome, koso wuod dhano to en angʼo, momiyo isiko ipare?
Jehovah, what is man, that thou take knowledge of him? Or the son of man, that thou make account of him?
4 Dhano chalo gi muya nono kendo ndalone chalo gi tipo makadho piyo.
Man is like vanity. His days are as a shadow that passes away.
5 Wuogi e polo, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, wuogi mondo ilor piny; lor piny imul gode, mondo gidhuol iro.
Bow thy heavens, O Jehovah, and come down. Touch the mountains, and they shall smoke.
6 Or mil polo, mondo ike wasigu; dir aserni magi, mondo itiekgi.
Cast forth lightning, and scatter them. Send out thine arrows, and discomfit them.
7 Rie lweti koa e polo nyaka piny, mondo ikonya, kendo igola, e pige ma tekregi ngʼeny, kendo e lwet jopinje mamoko,
Stretch forth thy hand from above. Rescue me, and deliver me out of great waters, out of the hand of aliens,
8 ma dhogi opongʼ gi miriambo kendo ma lwetgi ma korachwich opongʼ gi wuondruok.
whose mouth speaks deceit, and whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.
9 Abiro weroni wer manyien, yaye Nyasaye; abiro weroni wer mamit ka agoyoni thum man-gi tonde apar,
I will sing a new song to thee, O God. Upon a psaltery of ten strings I will sing praises to thee.
10 abiro werne Jal mamiyo ruodhi locho, kendo makonyo Daudi jatichne e dho ligangla mager.
Thou are he who gives salvation to kings, who rescues David his servant from the hurtful sword.
11 Konya kendo gola e lwet jopinje mamoko, ma dhogi opongʼ gi miriambo kendo ma lwetgi ma korachwich opongʼ gi wuondruok.
Rescue me, and deliver me out of the hand of aliens, whose mouth speaks deceit, and whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.
12 Eka yawuotwa biro chalo gi yiende mayudo pi maber, kendo nyiwa biro chalo gi sirni modol maber mondo olich dala ruoth.
That our sons shall be as plants grown up in their youth, and our daughters as cornerstones hewn according to the fashion of a palace,
13 Dechewa biro pongʼ gi kit mwandu duto. Rombewa biro medore gana gi gana, ee, gibiro bedo gana mathoth e lek magwa,
our garners are full, affording all manner of store, our sheep bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our fields,
14 kendo rwedhi magwa biro ywayo misike mapek. Jokwoge ok nodonj e kundewa, bende ok noterwa e twech, kendo yoreyore ok nogo e gwengʼwa.
our oxen are well laden, no breaking in, and no going forth, and no outcry in our streets,
15 Ogwedh joma gigi gin adier kuomgi; kendo ogwedh jogo ma Nyasachgi en Jehova Nyasaye.
blessed are the people who are in such a case. Blessed are the people whose God is Jehovah.
