Zaburi 4
1 Kuom jatend wer. Miwero gi gig wer man-gi tondegi. Zaburi mar Daudi. Ka aluongi to yie idwoka, yaye Nyasacha makare. Konya e lit momako chunya; yie ikecha kendo iwinj lamona.
For the Leader; with string-music. A Psalm of David. Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness, Thou who didst set me free when I was in distress; be gracious unto me, and hear my prayer.
2 Yaye, ubiro chayo duongʼ ka ukuodo wiya nyaka karangʼo? Ubiro hero gik manono kendo luwo nyiseche manono nyaka karangʼo? (Sela)
O ye sons of men, how long shall my glory be put to shame, in that ye love vanity, and seek after falsehood? (Selah)
3 Ngʼeuru ni Jehova Nyasaye oseyiera mondo abed mare owuon; kendo Jehova Nyasaye winja, ka aluonge.
But know that the LORD hath set apart the godly man as His own; the LORD will hear when I call unto Him.
4 Ka iu owangʼ to kik utim richo; seche ma uyweyo mos e kitandau, to nonuru chunyu ka ulingʼ mos, keturu chunyu mos ka unindo e kitandau. (Sela)
Tremble, and sin not; commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. (Selah)
5 Chiwuru misengini mowinjore kendo genuru kuom Jehova Nyasaye.
Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD.
6 Ji mangʼeny penjo niya, “En ngʼa manyalo timonwa gimoro maber?” Mad ler moa e lela wangʼi rieny kuomwa, yaye Jehova Nyasaye.
Many there are that say: 'Oh that we could see some good!' LORD, lift Thou up the light of Thy countenance upon us.
7 Isepongʼo chunya gi mor maduongʼ moloyo mor ma gin-go e kinde ma gin-gi cham kod divai mangʼeny.
Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than when their corn and their wine increase.
8 Abiro riera piny mi anind gi kwe, nikech in kendi, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, in ema imiyo adak gi kwe.
In peace will I both lay me down and sleep; for Thou, LORD, makest me dwell alone in safety.
