Zaburi 3
1 Zaburi mar Daudi, kane oringo oa ir wuode Abisalom. Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, mano kaka wasika thoth! Mano kaka joma lawa ngʼeny!
“A Psalm of David, when he fled from his son Absalom.” How many, O LORD, are mine enemies! How many are they who rise up against me!
2 Ji mangʼeny wuoyo kuoma, kagiwacho ni, “Nyasaye ok bi rese.” (Sela)
How many are they who say of me, “There is no help for him with God”! (Pause)
3 To In e okumbana mogengʼa, yaye Jehova Nyasaye; In ema imiyo alocho, kendo isetingʼo wiya malo.
But thou, O LORD! art my shield, My glory, and the lifter-up of my head.
4 Aywak matek ka alemo ni Jehova Nyasaye, kendo odwoka gie gode maler. (Sela)
I call upon the LORD with my voice, And he heareth me from his holy hill. (Pause)
5 Ariera piny mondo anindi; kendo achako aa malo, nikech Jehova Nyasaye orita.
I lay me down and sleep; I awake, for the LORD sustaineth me.
6 Ok abi luoro ji gana gi gana molwora mondo otimna marach.
I will not fear the ten thousands of people Who on every side set themselves against me.
7 Aa malo, yaye Jehova Nyasaye! Resa, yaye Nyasacha! Tur chok lemb wasika duto; Muk leke joma timbegi richo.
Arise, O LORD! Save me, O my God! For thou smitest the cheek of all my enemies; Thou breakest the teeth of the wicked.
8 Resruok aa mana kuom Jehova Nyasaye. Mad igweth jogi. (Sela)
Deliverance cometh from the LORD: May thy blessing be with thy people! (Pause)
