Zaburi 59
1 Kuom jatend wer. E dwol mar “Kik iketh gik moko.” Miktam mar Daudi. Kane Saulo ooro ji mondo ocher od Daudi mondo onege. Resa e lwet wasika, yaye Nyasaye; Rit ngimana kuom joma ogar koda.
“For the leader of the music. To the tune of “Do not destroy.” A psalm of David, when Saul sent, and they watched the house to kill him.” Deliver me from my enemies, O my God! Defend me from them that rise up against me!
2 Gola e lwet joma timo gik maricho kendo resa kuom joma riyo mar chwero remo omako.
Deliver me from the doers of iniquity, And save me from men of blood!
3 Neye kaka gibutona ka girita e yo! Joma kwiny chano kaka digihinya, to an onge gima rach kata richo masetimo, yaye Jehova Nyasaye.
For, lo! they lie in wait for my life; The mighty are gathered against me, Without any offence or fault of mine, O LORD!
4 Onge gima asetimo marach, to kata kamano gin to giikore monja. Aa malo ikonya; ne chandruokna.
Without any offence of mine, they run and prepare themselves; Awake to help me, and behold!
5 Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasaye Maratego, in Nyasach Israel, aa malo ikum ogendini duto; kik ikech andhoke ma timbegi richo. (Sela)
Do thou, O Jehovah, God of hosts, God of Israel, Awake to punish all the nations! Show no mercy to any wicked transgressors! (Pause)
6 Gidwogo ka piny imore, ka gingʼur ka guogi, kendo giwuotho koni gi koni e dala ka gingʼanjo.
Let them return at evening, Let them howl like dogs, And go round about the city!
7 Neye gik ma gingʼudho koa e dhogi, gingʼudho ligengni gi dhogi, kendo giwacho niya, “En ngʼa manyalo winjowa?”
Behold! with their mouths they belch out malice; Swords are upon their lips; “For who,” say they, “will hear?”
8 To in nyiergi, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, go siboi ne ogendinigo duto.
Yet thou, O LORD! wilt laugh at them; Thou wilt hold all the nations in derision!
9 Yaye tekona, in ema angʼiyi, in e kar pondona, yaye Nyasaye,
O my Strength! to thee will I look! For God is my defence;
10 Yaye Nyasacha ma jahera. Nyasaye biro telona kendo obiro miyo asungra ne joma ketho nyinga.
My God will come to meet me with his mercy; God will cause me to look with joy upon my enemies.
11 To kik uneg-gi, yaye Ruoth ma okumbana nikech joga dipoka wigi owil. Mi giba abaya koni gi koni gi tekoni, kendo mi gidog piny.
Slay them not, lest my people forget; Scatter them by thy power, and cast them down, O Lord, our shield!
12 Nikech richo ma gitimo gi dhogi kuom wuoyo, nikech weche mawuok e dhogi, wegi mondo sungagi ogajgi. Nikech gikwongʼo ji kendo gi wuondo ji,
The word of their lips is the sin of their mouth; Let them be overtaken in their pride, For the curses and the falsehood which they utter!
13 tiekgi gi mirimbi mager, tiekgi mi kargi lal nono, eka biro ngʼere e tungʼ piny koni gi koni ni Nyasaye nigi loch kuom joka Jakobo. (Sela)
Consume them in thy wrath; consume them that they be no more, That they may know that God ruleth in Jacob, Even to the ends of the earth! (Pause)
14 Gidwogo ka piny imore ka gingʼur ka guogi, kendo giwuotho koni gi koni e dala ka gingʼanjo.
Let them return at evening, Let them howl like dogs, And go round about the city!
15 Gibayo koni gi koni ka gidwaro chiemo kendo ka ok giyiengʼ to gingʼur.
Let them wander about for food, When they have passed the night unsatisfied!
16 Anto abiro wer kuom tekoni abiro wero herani gokinyi; nikech in e ohingana, in e kar pondona e kinde mag thagruok.
But I will sing of thy power; Yea, in the morning will I sing aloud of thy mercy; For thou hast been my defence, My refuge in the day of my distress.
17 In e tekona, omiyo abiro weroni wend pak; in e ohingana, yaye Nyasaye, in e Nyasacha ma jahera.
To thee, O my Strength! will I sing! For God is my defence; a God of mercy to me.
