Zaburi 54

1 Kuom jatend wer. Wer miwero gi thumbe man-gi waya. Maskil mar Daudi. Kane jo-Zif osedhi ir Saulo kendo onyise niya, “Donge Daudi ma imanyo opondo e gwengʼwa?” Resa gi nyingi, yaye Nyasaye; ngʼadna bura kare gi tekoni.

SAVE me, O God, by thy name, and judge me by thy strength.

2 Winj lamona, yaye Nyasaye; chik iti ne weche mawuok e dhoga.

Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth.

3 Jopinje moko monja; acheje kawo ngimana, gin joma ok dew Nyasaye. (Sela)

For strangers are risen up against me, and oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set God before them. (Selah)

4 Adier, Nyasaye e jakonyna; Ruoth owuon ema rita.

Behold, God is mine helper: the Lord is with them that uphold my soul.

5 Mad chandruok lwor joma ketho nyinga mi ketgi diere; tiekgi, nikech in ja-adiera.

He shall reward evil unto mine enemies: cut them off in thy truth.

6 Abiro timoni misango gi chiwo mar (hera) abiro pako nyingi, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, nikech nyingi ber.

I will freely sacrifice unto thee: I will praise thy name, O Lord; for it is good.

7 Nikech oseresa kuom gik mathaga duto, mi omiyo wengena ongʼiyo wasika tir bangʼ loyogi.

For he hath delivered me out of all trouble: and mine eye hath seen his desire upon mine enemies.
