Zaburi 19
1 Kuom jatend wer. Zaburi mar Daudi. Polo hulo duongʼ mar Nyasaye; kor polo nyiso tich mar lwete.
For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands.
2 Odiechiengʼ kodiechiengʼ gilando wach; otieno kotieno ginyiso rieko.
Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge.
3 Gionge dhok kata weche kata dwondgi ok winji.
Without speech or language, without a sound to be heard,
4 Kata kamano dwondgi chopo kuonde duto e piny, wechegi osechopo nyaka e tunge piny. Osechungo hema e kor polo ne wangʼ chiengʼ,
their voice has gone out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world. In the heavens He has pitched a tent for the sun.
5 machalo gi wuon kisera mothinyore oko kawuok e ode mar mor, kendo mana ka jangʼwech mongirore moil moikore ni chako ngʼwech.
Like a bridegroom emerging from his chamber, like a champion rejoicing to run his course,
6 Owuok gie tungʼ polo konchiel, kendo olworore nyaka komachielo; onge gima opondo ne liet mare.
it rises at one end of the heavens and runs its circuit to the other; nothing is deprived of its warmth.
7 Chik Jehova Nyasaye longʼo chuth, odwogo chuny. Buche mag Jehova Nyasaye gin adiera, gimiyo joma riekogi tin bedo mariek.
The Law of the LORD is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of the LORD is trustworthy, making wise the simple.
8 Chike mag Jehova Nyasaye nikare, gichiwo mor ne chuny. Chike mag Jehova Nyasaye rieny, gichiwo ler ne wangʼ.
The precepts of the LORD are right, bringing joy to the heart; the commandments of the LORD are radiant, giving light to the eyes.
9 Luoro Jehova Nyasaye en gima ber, mosiko nyaka chiengʼ. Buche mag Jehova Nyasaye gin adier kendo gin kare kargi giduto.
The fear of the LORD is pure, enduring forever; the judgments of the LORD are true, being altogether righteous.
10 Gibeyo moloyo dhahabu, moloyo dhahabu malerie moloyo; gimit moloyo mor kich moa e pedni.
They are more precious than gold, than much pure gold; they are sweeter than honey, than honey from the comb.
11 Gin ema gimiyo jatichni bedo motangʼ; kendo bedogi kanyo kelo pok maduongʼ.
By them indeed Your servant is warned; in keeping them is great reward.
12 En ngʼa manyalo ngʼeyo kethone mopondo? Wena kethoga mopondo.
Who can discern his own errors? Cleanse me from my hidden faults.
13 Bende gengʼ jatichni kuom richo mag wich teko; mad kik gibed gi loch kuoma. Eka anabed maonge ketho, anabed ka aonge gi ketho chik moro maduongʼ.
Keep Your servant also from willful sins; may they not rule over me. Then I will be blameless and cleansed of great transgression.
14 Mad weche mawuok e dhoga, kod paro manie chunya, obed malongʼo e nyimi, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, Lwandana kendo Jawarna.
May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in Your sight, O LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer.
