Zaburi 35
1 Zaburi mar Daudi. Yaye Jehova Nyasaye kedi gi joma kedo koda; ked gi joma lawa.
Strive thou, O Jehovah, with those who strive with me. Fight thou against those who fight against me.
2 Kaw kuodi gi okumbani; aa malo mondo ibi ikonya.
Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for my help.
3 Chom tongʼ ma dhoge bith mar kedo ibwog-go joma lawa. Wuo gi chunya kiwachone niya, “An e warruokni.”
Draw out the spear also, and stop the way against those who pursue me. Say to my soul, I am thy salvation.
4 Mad joma dwaro ketho ngimana, ne wichkuot gi achaya. Mad joma chanona hinyruok, chunygi nyosre mi giweya.
Let them be put to shame and brought to dishonor who seek after my soul. Let them be turned back and confounded who devise my hurt.
5 Mad gichal gi mihudhi ma yamo tero, ka malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye riembogi mabor;
Let them be as chaff before the wind, and the agent of Jehovah driving them on.
6 mad yore ma giluwo bed gi mudho bende yoregigo obed makierogi ka malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye lawogi.
Let their way be dark and slippery, and the agent of Jehovah pursuing them.
7 Nikech gichikona obadhogi kayiem nono kendo gikunyona bur kayiem mondo alwarie;
For without cause they have hid their net for me in a pit. Without cause they have dug a pit for my soul.
8 mad kethruok jukgi apoya ka gikia mad obadhogi ma gisechikona makgi; mad gilwar ei bur ma kargi lal nono.
Let destruction come upon him unawares, and let his net that he has hid catch himself. Let him fall in it with destruction.
9 Eka chunya nobed mamor kuom Jehova Nyasaye kendo anabed gimor kuom warruokne.
And my soul shall be joyful in Jehovah. It shall rejoice in his salvation.
10 Ringra gi chunya duto, biro hulo kawacho niya, “En ngʼa machalo kodi, yaye Jehova Nyasaye.” Ireso joma odhier e lwet joma nigi teko moloyogi, Adier, ikonyo joma odhier gi jochan kuom joma mayogi.
All my bones shall say, Jehovah, who is like thee, who delivers a poor man from him who is too strong for him, yea, a poor and needy man from him who robs him?
11 Joma timo neno ma wengegi tek sudo nyime; gipenja gik ma ok angʼeyo gimoro amora kuomgi.
Unrighteous witnesses rise up, they ask me of things that I know not.
12 Gichula rach kar ber, kendo giweyo chunya kochwanyore.
They reward me evil for good, to the bereaving of my soul.
13 To kane gituo magihewore to ne arwako law ywagruok kendo ne abolora katweyo chiemo. Kane lamona ok odwoki,
But as for me, when they were sick my clothing was sackcloth. I afflicted my soul with fasting, and my prayer returned into my own bosom.
14 ne awuotho koni gi koni ka chunya lit, mana ka gima aywago osiepna kata owadwa. Ne akulo wiya ka an gi kuyo maduongʼ mana ka gima aywago minwa.
I behaved myself as though it had been my friend or my brother. I bowed down mourning, as he who bewails his mother.
15 To kane achwanyora, negichokore kaachiel gi mor; joma ne monja nochokorena sa ma ok angʼeyo, negisiko ka giketho nyinga.
But in my adversity they rejoiced, and gathered themselves together. The wretches gathered themselves together against me, and I knew it not. They tore me, and ceased not.
16 Kaka joma ok oluoro Nyasaye chayo ji, ne gijara ka gichano timona marach, ne gikayona lekegi.
Like the profane mockers in feasts, they gnashed upon me with their teeth.
17 Yaye Ruoth, ibiro siko kirango gigi katimore nyaka karangʼo? Res ngimana kuom kethruok duto mag-gi. Akwayi ni ires ngimana ma nengone tek e lwet sibuochegi.
Lord, how long will thou look on? Rescue my soul from their destructions, my darling from the lions.
18 Abiro goyoni erokamano e chokruok maduongʼ; abiro paki e dier oganda maduongʼ mochokore kaachiel.
I will give thee thanks in the great assembly. I will praise thee among much people.
19 Kik iyie ni jogo osungre ni gisenyala, joma obedo wasika maonge gima omiyo; iyie joma ochaya maonge gimoro sigre gi wengegi mar timona marach.
Let not those who are my enemies wrongfully rejoice over me. Neither let them wink with the eye who hate me without a cause.
20 Ok giwuo gi kwe, to gichano wacho miriambo, kuom joma odak mos e piny.
For they speak not peace, but they devise deceitful words against those who are quiet in the land.
21 Giyawona dhogi maduongʼ kendo nyiera ka giwachona giwacho niya, “Haa! Haa! Wasenene gi wengewa wawegi.”
Yea, they opened their mouth wide against me. They said, Aha, aha, our eye has seen it.
22 Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, iseneno timgini; kik ilingʼ. Kik ibed koda mabor, yaye Ruoth Nyasaye.
Thou have seen it, O Jehovah. Keep not silence. O Lord, be not far from me.
23 Aa malo, kendo chungi mondo ikonya! Kedna, yaye Nyasacha kendo Ruodha.
Stir up thyself, and awake to the justice to me, to my cause, my God and my Lord.
24 Yala kichwaka kuom timni makare, yaye Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasacha; kik iyienegi gisungre ni gisenyala.
Judge me, O Jehovah my God, according to thy righteousness, and let them not rejoice over me.
25 Kik iwe giwach e chunygi niya, “Ero, otimorene mana kaka ne wadwaro.” Kata giwach niya, “Koro wasemuonye ngili.”
Let them not say in their heart, Aha, so would we have it. Let them not say, We have swallowed him up.
26 Mad ji duto mamor nikech chandruokna oyud wichkuot kendo pachgi olal; mad joma kaworena oyud wichkuot gi achaya.
Let them be put to shame and confounded together who rejoice at my hurt. Let them be clothed with shame and dishonor who magnify themselves against me.
27 Mad joma mor kuom loch ma imiya okog gi ilo kod mor; mad gisiki kagiwacho kinde duto niya, “Jehova Nyasaye mondo otingʼ malo nikech omiyo jatichne locho.”
Let them shout for joy, and be glad, who favor my righteous cause. Yea, let them say continually, Jehovah be magnified, who has pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.
28 Abiro pako timni makare kendo kuom pakni duto odiechiengʼ duto.
And my tongue shall talk of thy righteousness and of thy praise all the day long.
