Zaburi 43

1 Ngʼadna bura makare, yaye Nyasaye, kendo chwaka e kind joma ok ongʼeyo Nyasaye; resa e lwet joma wuondore gi joma timbegi richo.

Vindicate me, O God, and plead my case against an ungodly nation; deliver me from deceitful and unjust men.

2 In Nyasaye ma apondo kuome. Koro to ijwangʼa nangʼo? Angʼo momiyo nyaka asik ka akuyo, ka jawasigu sanda?

For You are the God of my refuge. Why have You rejected me? Why must I walk in sorrow because of the enemy’s oppression?

3 Or lerni kod adierani, orgi mondo gitelna; yie mondo gikela nyaka godi maler, nyaka kama idakie.

Send out Your light and Your truth; let them lead me. Let them bring me to Your holy mountain, and to the place where You dwell.

4 Eka anadhi e kendo mar misango mar Nyasaye, nyaka achopi e nyim Nyasaye, Nyasaye ma kelona mor kendo ilo. Abiro paki gi nyatiti, yaye Nyasaye kendo Nyasacha.

Then I will go to the altar of God, to God, my greatest joy. I will praise You with the harp, O God, my God.

5 Angʼo momiyo ikuyo, yaye chunya? Angʼo momiyo inyosori, yaye chunya? Ket genoni kuom Nyasaye, nikech pod abiro pake, en e Jawarna kendo Nyasacha.

Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why the unease within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise Him, my Savior and my God.
