Zaburi 63
1 Zaburi mar Daudi kane en e thim mar Juda. Yaye Nyasaye, in e Nyasacha, adwari gi tekra duto; chunya riyo oloyo mar neni kendo denda duto dwari, e piny motwo kendo maliet, maonge pi modho.
“A psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah.” O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry land, and it is faint without water.
2 Aseneni ei kari maler kendo asengʼeyo tekoni gi duongʼni.
As I have beheld thee in the sanctuary, seeing thy strength and thy glory;
3 Nikech herani ber moloyo ngima, dhoga biro miyi duongʼ.
Because thy kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee:
4 Abiro paki kapod angima, kendo abiro tingʼo bedena malo e nyingi.
Thus will I bless thee while I live; in thy name will I lift up my hands.
5 Chunya biro romo mana ka ngʼama oromo gi chiemo mabeyo mogik; abiro yawo dwonda ka apaki gi wer.
As with fat and marrow will my soul be satisfied; and with tuneful lips shall my mouth praise thee.
6 Ka an e kitandana to apari; pacha osiko pari seche duto mag otieno.
When I remember thee upon my couch, I meditate on thee in the night-watches.
7 Nikech in e konyruokna, awer ka an e bwo tipo mar bwombeni.
Because thou hast been a help unto me; and in the shadow of thy wings will I sing rejoicingly.
8 Chunya omoko kuomi; lweti ma korachwich orita.
My soul cleaveth unto following thee: me thy right hand upholdeth.
9 Joma dwaro kawo ngimana ibiro tieki; gibiro dhi piny nyaka ei bur kama tut.
But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go down into the lowest deeps of the earth.
10 Ibiro chiwgi ne ligangla kendo gibiro doko chiemb ondiegi.
They shall be delivered up to the power of the sword: they shall become a prey for jackals.
11 To ruoth to biro bedo moil kuom Nyasaye; ji duto masingore e nying Nyasaye biro pake, to dho jo-miriambo ibiro um mi lingʼ.
But the king shall rejoice in God: every one that sweareth by him shall glorify himself; for the mouth of those that speak falsehood shall be stopped.
