Zaburi 57
1 Kuom jatend wer. E dwond “Kik iketh gik moko.” Miktam mar Daudi. Kane oringone Saulo mi opondo e rogo. Kecha, yaye Nyasaye, yie ikecha nikech kuomi ema chunya yudoe kar pondo. Abiro pondo e bwo tipo mar bwombeni nyaka chop apaka mager rum.
For the chief musician; set to Al Tashheth. A psalm of David. A michtam; when he fled from Saul, in the cave. Be merciful to me, God, be merciful to me, for I take refuge in you until these troubles are over. I stay under your wings for protection until this destruction is over.
2 Aywagora ne Nyasaye Man Malo Moloyo, Nyasaye machopona chenroge ema aywakne.
I will cry to God Most High, to God, who does all things for me.
3 Ooro wach gie polo kendo oresa, kokwero joma lawa gi tekregi duto; (Sela) Nyasaye oro herane gi adiera mare.
He will send help from heaven and save me, he is angry with those who crush me. (Selah) God will send me his loving kindness and his faithfulness.
4 An e dier sibuoche; anindo e dier le mager mangemo, joma lekegi chalo tonge gi aserni, ma lewgi chalo ligangla mabitho.
My life is among lions; I am among those who are ready to devour me. I am among people whose teeth are spears and arrows, and whose tongues are sharp swords.
5 Nyingi mondo otingʼ malo moyombo polo, yaye Nyasaye; mad duongʼ mari opongʼ piny duto.
Be exalted, God, above the heavens; let your glory be above all the earth.
6 Ne giyaro jogo mondo omak tiendena, kane chuny lit odola. Ne gikunyo bugo e yora, to kata kamano gin giwegi ema giselutore e iye. (Sela)
They spread out a net for my feet; I was distressed. They dug a pit in front of me. They themselves have fallen into the middle of it! (Selah)
7 Chunya otegno, yaye Nyasaye, chunya otegno; abiro paki gi wer kendo abiro loso wer mamit.
My heart is fixed, God, my heart is fixed; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises.
8 Chiew, in chunya! Chiewuru un orutu gi nyatiti! Abiro chiewo kogwen.
Wake up, my honored heart; wake up, lute and harp; I will wake up the dawn.
9 Abiro paki e dier ogendini, yaye Jehova Nyasaye. Abiro werni e dier ogendini.
I will give thanks to you, Lord, among the peoples; I will sing praises to you among the nations.
10 Nikech herani maduongʼ chopo nyaka e polo; kendo adiera mari chopo nyaka ewi lwasi.
For great is your unfailing love, reaching to the heavens; and your faithfulness to the clouds.
11 Nyingi mondo otingʼ malo moyombo polo, yaye Nyasaye; mad duongʼ mari opongʼ piny duto.
Be exalted, God, above the heavens; may your glory be exalted over all the earth.
