Zaburi 58
1 Kuom jatend wer. E dwol mar “Kik iketh gik moko.” Miktam mar Daudi. Un jotelo, bende uwuoyo gi adiera? Bende ungʼado bura moriere tir e dier ji?
To the chief music-maker; put to Al-tashheth. Michtam. Of David. Is there righteousness in your mouths, O you gods? are you upright judges, O you sons of men?
2 Ooyo, uchano mayo ji ratiro magi e chunyu, kendo lwetu chano kelo dhawo e piny.
The purposes of your hearts are evil; your hands are full of cruel doings on the earth.
3 Joma timbegi richo chako lal ae nywolgi; gin jo-jendeke kendo gin jo-miriambo aa nywolgi.
The evil-doers are strange from the first; from the hour of their birth they go out of the true way, saying false words.
4 Kwiri margi chalo gi kwich thuol, chalo gi kwich thuond rachier ma tege oyienyo,
Their poison is like the poison of a snake; they are like the adder, whose ears are shut;
5 ma kata ja-bochne wuone to ok owinji, kata bed ni ja-bochneno olony machal nadi.
Who will not be moved by the voice of the wonder-worker, however great are his powers.
6 Muk lekegi ei dhogi, yaye Nyasaye, yiech kwiri mag sibuoche oko, yaye Jehova Nyasaye!
O God, let their teeth be broken in their mouths; let the great teeth of the young lions be pulled out, O Lord.
7 Mi gilal nono ka pi mamol; ka giywayo atungegi to mi asernigi obed madik.
Let them be turned to liquid like the ever-flowing waters; let them be cut off like the grass by the way.
8 Mana kaka ndach kamnie maleny nono, kendo mana kaka nyathi monywol kosetho, mad kik gine wangʼ chiengʼ.
Let them be like an after-birth which is turned to water and comes to an end; like the fruit of a woman who gives birth before her time, let them not see the sun.
9 Kapok agulni magi ochako winjo liet mach, bed ni en mach mabebni kata maliel mos, to joma timbegi richo ibiro ywe oko.
Before they are conscious of it, let them be cut down like thorns; let a strong wind take them away like waste growth.
10 Joma kare biro bedo mamor kichulonigi kuor, ka giniluok tiendegi e remb joma timbegi richo.
The upright man will be glad when he sees their punishment; his feet will be washed in the blood of the evil-doer.
11 Eka ji nowach niya, “Kara en adier ni joma kare pod yudo pok; kara nitie Nyasaye mangʼado bura ne piny.”
So that men will say, Truly there is a reward for righteousness; truly there is a God who is judge on the earth.
