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.
For the chief musician. A psalm of David. In you, Yahweh, I take refuge; never let me be humiliated. Rescue me in your righteousness.
2 Winj ywakna, kendo bi piyo mondo iresa; bed lwandana mar pondo, kendo ohinga motegno manyalo resa.
Listen to me; rescue me quickly; be my rock of refuge, a stronghold to save me.
3 Kaka in lwandana kendo ohingana, telna kendo itaya nikech nyingi.
For you are my rock and my fortress; therefore for your name's sake, lead and guide me.
4 Gola oko e obadho mopondo mochikna nikech in e kar pondona.
Pluck me out of the net that they have hidden for me, for you are my refuge.
5 Aketo chunya e lweti; resa, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasaye mar adiera.
Into your hands I entrust my spirit; you will redeem me, Yahweh, God of trustworthiness.
6 Asin gi joma lamo nyiseche manono ma dhano oloso; an to aketo genona kuom Jehova Nyasaye.
I hate those who serve worthless idols, but I trust in Yahweh.
7 Abiro bedo mamor kendo moil kuom herani, nikech ne ineno chandruokna, kendo ne ingʼeyo lit mar chunya.
I will be glad and rejoice in your covenant faithfulness, for you saw my affliction; you knew the distress of my soul.
8 Ok iseketa e lwet jawasigu to iseguro tiendena kama lach.
You have not given me into the hand of my enemy. You have set my feet in a wide open place.
9 Kecha, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, nikech an e chandruok; wengena ojony nikech ywak, kendo chunya gi ringra bende nigi lit.
Have mercy upon me, Yahweh, for I am in distress; my eyes grow weary with grief with my soul and my body.
10 Ngimana rem chamo kendo higni maga opongʼ gi chur; tekona rumo nikech lit ma an-go kendo chokena doko mayom yom.
For my life is weary with sorrow and my years with groaning. My strength fails because of my sin, and my bones are wasting away.
11 Nikech wasigu olwora mangʼeny, joma odak koda koro ochaya gi chunygi; alich kata mana ni osiepena kendo joma onena e wangʼ yo ringa.
Because of all my enemies, people disdain me; my neighbors are appalled at my situation, and those who know me are horrified. Those who see me in the street run from me.
12 Wigi owil koda mana ka gima ne asetho chon bende koro achalo mana gi agulu motore.
I am forgotten as a dead man whom no one thinks about. I am 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.
For I have heard the whispering of many, terrifying news from every side as they plot together against me. They plot to take away my life.
14 To an aketo mana genona kuomi, yaye Jehova Nyasaye; kendo awacho niya, “In e Nyasacha.”
But I trust in you, Yahweh; I say, “You are my God.”
15 Ndalona ni e lweti; resa e lwet wasika, kendo kuom joma lawa.
My times are in your hand. Rescue me from the hands of my enemies and from those who pursue me.
16 Mad ibed mamor gi jatichni; resa gi herani ma ok rum.
Make your face shine on your servant; save me in your covenant faithfulness.
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)
Do not let me be humiliated, Yahweh; for I call out to you! May the wicked be humiliated! May they be silent in Sheol. (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.
May lying lips be silenced that speak against the righteous defiantly with arrogance and contempt.
19 Mano kaka berni duongʼ, ber mikano ne joma oluori, mimiyo joma opondo kuomi ka ji duto neno.
How great is your goodness that you have stored up for those who revere you, that you perform for those who take refuge in you before all the children of mankind!
20 Ipandogi e bwombi iwuon mondo joma richo kik hinygi; iritogi maber e kar dak mari kuom lew joma hangonigi wach.
In the shelter of your presence, you hide them from the plots of men. You hide them in a shelter from the violence of tongues.
21 Pak obed ni Jehova Nyasaye, nikech ne onyisa herane maduongʼ, kane an e dala ma wasigu ogoyona agengʼa.
Blessed be Yahweh, for he showed me his marvelous covenant faithfulness when I was in a besieged city.
22 Kane chandruok omaka to ne awacho ni, “Opoga kodi!” Kata kamano ne iwinja ka aywakni mondo ikecha kane aluongi mondo ikonya.
Though I said in my haste, “I am cut off from your eyes,” yet you heard my plea for help when I cried to you.
23 Heruru Jehova Nyasaye un joge maler duto! Jehova Nyasaye rito ngima joma jo-adiera, to josunga to ochulo moromo chuth.
Oh, love Yahweh, all you faithful followers. Yahweh protects the faithful, but he pays back the arrogant in full.
24 Beduru motegno kendo jiwuru chunyu, un duto mugeno kuom Jehova Nyasaye.
Be strong and confident, all you who trust in Yahweh for help.
