Zaburi 31
1 Kuom jatend wer. Zaburi mar Daudi. Kuomi ema aseponde, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, kik iwe ayud wichkuot; gola e chandruok nikech timni makare.
A psalm of David. For the music director. Lord, you are the one who keeps me safe; please don't let me ever be humiliated. Save me, because you always do what is right.
2 Winj ywakna, kendo bi piyo mondo iresa; bed lwandana mar pondo, kendo ohinga motegno manyalo resa.
Please listen to me, and be quick to rescue me. Be my rock of protection, my strong fortress of safety.
3 Kaka in lwandana kendo ohingana, telna kendo itaya nikech nyingi.
You are my rock and my fortress. For the sake of your reputation, please lead me and guide me.
4 Gola oko e obadho mopondo mochikna nikech in e kar pondona.
Help me escape from the hidden net that they set to trap me, for you are the one who protects me.
5 Aketo chunya e lweti; resa, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasaye mar adiera.
I put myself in your hands. Save me, Lord, for you are a trustworthy God.
6 Asin gi joma lamo nyiseche manono ma dhano oloso; an to aketo genona kuom Jehova Nyasaye.
I hate those who devote themselves to pointless idols; I trust in the Lord.
7 Abiro bedo mamor kendo moil kuom herani, nikech ne ineno chandruokna, kendo ne ingʼeyo lit mar chunya.
I will celebrate, happy in your love that never fails, for you have seen the problems I face and have paid attention to my troubles.
8 Ok iseketa e lwet jawasigu to iseguro tiendena kama lach.
You haven't handed me over to my enemies; you have set me free.
9 Kecha, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, nikech an e chandruok; wengena ojony nikech ywak, kendo chunya gi ringra bende nigi lit.
Be kind to me Lord, for I am upset. I can hardly see from so much crying. I am completely wasting away.
10 Ngimana rem chamo kendo higni maga opongʼ gi chur; tekona rumo nikech lit ma an-go kendo chokena doko mayom yom.
Grief is killing me; my life is cut short by sadness; I am falling apart because of my troubles; I am worn to the bone.
11 Nikech wasigu olwora mangʼeny, joma odak koda koro ochaya gi chunygi; alich kata mana ni osiepena kendo joma onena e wangʼ yo ringa.
I am ridiculed by my enemies, particularly by my neighbors. My friends dread meeting me; people who see me in the street run the other way.
12 Wigi owil koda mana ka gima ne asetho chon bende koro achalo mana gi agulu motore.
I have been forgotten as if I were dead; I'm ignored like a broken pot.
13 Nikech awinjo ayany mangʼeny ma ji yanyago, kihondko olwora koni gi koni; gikuodho kaka digitimna marach kendo gichano mar kawo ngimana.
I hear many people whispering about me; terror surrounds me. They plot together against me, planning to kill me.
14 To an aketo mana genona kuomi, yaye Jehova Nyasaye; kendo awacho niya, “In e Nyasacha.”
But I put my trust in you, Lord, saying, “You are my God!”
15 Ndalona ni e lweti; resa e lwet wasika, kendo kuom joma lawa.
My whole life is in your hands! Save me from those who hate me and persecute me!
16 Mad ibed mamor gi jatichni; resa gi herani ma ok rum.
May you look kindly on me, your servant. Save me because of your trustworthy love.
17 Kik iwe wiya kuodi, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, nikech aseywakni ka alemo; to we joma timbegi richo oyud wichkuot kendo ginindi ka gilingʼ thi ei liel. (Sheol h7585)
Lord, don't let me be disgraced, for I'm calling out to you. Instead let the wicked be disgraced, let them be silent in the grave. (Sheol h7585)
18 Mi dhogi mawacho miriambo mondo olingʼ; nikech sungagi kod chuny marach ma gin-go, omiyo giwuoyo gi wich teko kuom joma kare.
Shut the mouths of those who tell lies against good people—those who speak contemptuously in their pride and arrogance!
19 Mano kaka berni duongʼ, ber mikano ne joma oluori, mimiyo joma opondo kuomi ka ji duto neno.
How wonderful is the goodness you have reserved for those who honor you! In front of everyone you give this goodness to those who come to you for help.
20 Ipandogi e bwombi iwuon mondo joma richo kik hinygi; iritogi maber e kar dak mari kuom lew joma hangonigi wach.
You shelter and protect them with your presence, far from their enemies who scheme against them. You keep them safe from attacks and accusations.
21 Pak obed ni Jehova Nyasaye, nikech ne onyisa herane maduongʼ, kane an e dala ma wasigu ogoyona agengʼa.
Bless the Lord, for he has shown me his wonderful trustworthy love when my city was being attacked
22 Kane chandruok omaka to ne awacho ni, “Opoga kodi!” Kata kamano ne iwinja ka aywakni mondo ikecha kane aluongi mondo ikonya.
Terrified I cried out, “I am being destroyed right in front of you!” But you heard my cry when I called out for you to help me.
23 Heruru Jehova Nyasaye un joge maler duto! Jehova Nyasaye rito ngima joma jo-adiera, to josunga to ochulo moromo chuth.
Love the Lord, all you who trust in him! The Lord takes care of those who trust him, but he pays back in full those who are arrogant.
24 Beduru motegno kendo jiwuru chunyu, un duto mugeno kuom Jehova Nyasaye.
Be strong and be confident, all you who put your hope in the Lord.
