Zaburi 28
1 Zaburi mar Daudi. In ema aluongi, yaye Jehova Nyasaye Lwandana; kik itamri winjo ywakna. Nikech ka isiko ilingʼ alingʼa, to abiro chalo gi joma osedhi e bur.
[By David.] To you, YHWH, I call. My rock, do not be deaf to me; lest, if you are silent to me, I would become like those who go down into the pit.
2 Winj ywakna mondo ikecha e sa ma aluongi mondo ikonya, e sa ma atingʼo bedena malo kochomo Kari Maler Moloyo.
Hear the voice of my petitions, when I cry to you, when I lift up my hands toward your Most Holy Place.
3 Kik iywaya oko gi joricho, kod joma timo gik maricho, joma wuoyo gi jowetegi maber to opando sigu e chunygi.
Do not draw me away with the wicked, with evildoers who speak peace with their neighbors, but mischief is in their hearts.
4 Chulgi kuom timbegi maricho kendo kuom tijegi maricho; chulgi kuom gik ma lwetgi osetimo kendo dwok kuomgi gik mowinjore gi timbegi.
Give them according to their work, and according to the wickedness of their doings. Give them according to the operation of their hands. Bring back on them what they deserve.
5 Nikech ok gidew tije mag Jehova Nyasaye kod gik ma lwetene osetimo, obiro mukogi mi ogogi piny kendo ok nochak ogergi mi gichungʼ kendo.
Because they do not regard the works of YHWH, nor the operation of his hands, he will break them down and not build them up.
6 Opak Jehova Nyasaye nikech osewinjo ywakna ma akwayogo kony.
Blessed be YHWH, because he has heard the voice of my petitions.
7 Jehova Nyasaye e tekona kendo okumbana; chunya ogeno kuome kendo en e konyruokna. Chunya nigi mor kendo abiro goyone erokamano gi wer.
YHWH is my strength and my shield. My heart has trusted in him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart greatly rejoices. With my song I will thank him.
8 Jehova Nyasaye e teko mar joge, en e ohinga mar resruok ni joge moyiero.
YHWH is the strength of his people. He is a stronghold of salvation to his anointed.
9 Res jogi kendo gwedh jogi moyier bed Jakwadh jogi kendo telnegi nyaka chiengʼ.
Save your people, and bless your inheritance. Be their shepherd also, and bear them up forever.
