Zaburi 19
1 Kuom jatend wer. Zaburi mar Daudi. Polo hulo duongʼ mar Nyasaye; kor polo nyiso tich mar lwete.
Unto the end. A Psalm of David. The heavens describe the glory of God, and the firmament announces the work of his hands.
2 Odiechiengʼ kodiechiengʼ gilando wach; otieno kotieno ginyiso rieko.
Day proclaims the word to day, and night to night imparts knowledge.
3 Gionge dhok kata weche kata dwondgi ok winji.
There are no speeches or conversations, where their voices are not being 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 sound has gone forth through all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.
5 machalo gi wuon kisera mothinyore oko kawuok e ode mar mor, kendo mana ka jangʼwech mongirore moil moikore ni chako ngʼwech.
He has placed his tabernacle in the sun, and he is like a bridegroom coming out of his bedroom. He has exulted like a giant running along the way;
6 Owuok gie tungʼ polo konchiel, kendo olworore nyaka komachielo; onge gima opondo ne liet mare.
his departure is from the summit of heaven. And his course reaches all the way to its summit. Neither is there anyone who can hide himself from his heat.
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 immaculate, converting souls. The testimony of the Lord is faithful, providing wisdom to little ones.
8 Chike mag Jehova Nyasaye nikare, gichiwo mor ne chuny. Chike mag Jehova Nyasaye rieny, gichiwo ler ne wangʼ.
The justice of the Lord is right, rejoicing hearts. The precepts of the Lord are brilliant, enlightening 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 holy, enduring for all generations. The judgments of the Lord are true, justified in themselves:
10 Gibeyo moloyo dhahabu, moloyo dhahabu malerie moloyo; gimit moloyo mor kich moa e pedni.
desirable beyond gold and many precious stones, and sweeter than honey and the honeycomb.
11 Gin ema gimiyo jatichni bedo motangʼ; kendo bedogi kanyo kelo pok maduongʼ.
For, indeed, your servant keeps them, and in keeping them, there are many rewards.
12 En ngʼa manyalo ngʼeyo kethone mopondo? Wena kethoga mopondo.
Who can understand transgression? From my hidden faults, cleanse me, O Lord,
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.
and from those of others, spare your servant. If they will have no dominion over me, then I will be immaculate, and I will be cleansed from the greatest transgression.
14 Mad weche mawuok e dhoga, kod paro manie chunya, obed malongʼo e nyimi, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, Lwandana kendo Jawarna.
And the eloquence of my mouth will be so as to please, along with the meditation of my heart, in your sight, forever, O Lord, my helper and my redeemer.
