Zaburi 40
1 Kuom jatend wer. Zaburi mar Daudi. Ne arito Jehova Nyasaye ka ahora mos; ne odwogo ira mi owinjo ywakna.
I WAITED patiently for the Lord; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.
2 Ne oywaya oko e bur motimo otodo, ne ogola e chwodho gi thidhna. Ne oketo tiendena e lwanda kendo nomiya kama otegno mondo achungie.
He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.
3 Ne oketo wer manyien e dhoga, en wer mipakogo Nyasachwa. Ji mangʼeny biro neno mi gibed maluor kendo gibiro keto genogi kuom Jehova Nyasaye.
And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the Lord.
4 Ngʼat moketo Jehova Nyasaye kaka kar geno mare en ngʼat mogwedhi, ngʼat ma ok many kony kuom josunga, bende ok omany kony kuom joma lokore mondo olam nyiseche mag miriambo.
Blessed is that man that maketh the Lord his trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
5 Ranyisi misetimo thoth, yaye Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasacha. Gigo mane ichanonwa onge ngʼama nyalo kwanoni; ka dine bed ni wanyalo wuoyo kuomgi; to dine gibedo mangʼeny ma ok wanyal wacho.
Many, O Lord my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.
6 Misengini kod chiwo ok ema ne idwaro to ita ema iseyawo; misengini miwangʼo pep kod chiwo mag golo richo ne ok idwaro.
Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.
7 Eka nawacho niya, “Eri an ka, asebiro mana kaka ondiki kuoma e Muma.
Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,
8 Chunya dwaro timo dwaroni, yaye Nyasacha; chikni ni ei chunya.”
I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.
9 Alando tim makare e chokruok maduongʼ; ok aumo dhoga, mana kaka ingʼeyo, yaye Jehova Nyasaye.
I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have not refrained my lips, O Lord, thou knowest.
10 Ok apando timni makare e chunya; to awuoyo kuom adierani gi warruokni. Ok apando herani gi adierani ni chokruok maduongʼ.
I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and thy salvation: I have not concealed thy lovingkindness and thy truth from the great congregation.
11 Kik itamri kecha, yaye Jehova Nyasaye; mad herani gi adierani osik ka rita.
Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O Lord: let thy lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me.
12 Nikech chandruok mokalo akwana olwora; richona osejuka kendo ok anyal neno. Gingʼeny moloyo yie wiya, kendo chunya onyosore gie iya.
For innumerable evils have compassed me about: mine iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of mine head: therefore my heart faileth me.
13 Bed mamor, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, mondo iresa. Bi piyo, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, mondo ikonya.
Be pleased, O Lord, to deliver me: O Lord, make haste to help me.
14 Mad ji duto madwaro ketho ngimana wigi kuodi kendo pachgi olal; mad ji duto ma chunygi gombona tho oriemb kadok gi wich okuot.
Let them be ashamed and confounded together that seek after my soul to destroy it; let them be driven backward and put to shame that wish me evil.
15 Mad joma nyiera niya, “Haa! Haa!” Ngʼengʼ ka gineno wichkuot.
Let them be desolate for a reward of their shame that say unto me, Aha, aha.
16 To mad ji duto madwari bed moil kendo mamor kuomi; mad joma ohero warruok mari osik kawacho niya, “Jehova Nyasaye mondo oyud duongʼ!”
Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: let such as love thy salvation say continually, The Lord be magnified.
17 Anto adhier kendo achando, mad Ruoth Nyasaye parae. In e jakonyna kendo jawarna; in e Nyasacha, kik ideki.
But I am poor and needy; yet the Lord thinketh upon me: thou art my help and my deliverer; make no tarrying, O my God.
