Zaburi 64

1 Kuom jatend wer. Zaburi mar Daudi. Winja, Yaye Nyasaye e kinde manyisi chandruokna; rit ngimana kuom jasigu ma bwoga.

For the end, a Psalm of David. Hear my prayer, O God, when I make my petition to you; deliver my soul from fear of the enemy.

2 Panda ne chenro maricho mag joma richo, panda ne koko ma oganda matimo marach goyo.

You have sheltered me from the conspiracy of them that do wickedly; from the multitude of them that work iniquity;

3 Gipiago lewgi ka ligangla kendo gichimo wechegi ka asere motimo sum.

who have sharpened their tongues as a sword; they have bent their bow maliciously;

4 Gidiro asere kama giponde mondo gichwogo ngʼama onge ketho; gibaye gi asere apoya ka gionge luoro.

to shoot in secret at the blameless; they will shoot him suddenly, and will not fear.

5 Gijiwore ngʼato gi ngʼato kuom chenrogi maricho, giwuoyo kaka ginyalo pando obadhogi, kagiwacho niya, “En ngʼa mabiro nenogi?”

They have set up for themselves an evil matter, they have given counsel to hide snares; they have said, Who shall see them?

6 Gichano timo ne ji marach kagiwacho niya, “Waseloso chenro malongʼo chuth!” Kuom adier, pach dhano gi chunye opando riekni maricho miwuoro.

They have searched out iniquity; they have wearied themselves with searching diligently, a man shall approach and the heart is deep,

7 To Nyasaye biro bayogi gi aserni; apoya nono, ibiro puodgi piny.

and God shall be exalted, their wounds were [caused by] the weapon of the foolish children,

8 Obiro loko lewgi mi gogi gin giwegi mi otiekgi chuth; ji duto monenogi biro kino wigi gi wuoro.

and their tongues have set him at nothing, all that saw them were troubled;

9 Ji duto biro bedo maluor, gibiro hulo tije Nyasaye, kendo gibiro paro mos kuom gima osetimo.

and every man was alarmed, and they related the works of God, and understood his deeds.

10 Joma kare mondo obed moil kuom Jehova Nyasaye kendo gipondo kuome; ji duto moriere tir gie chunygi mondo opake!

The righteous shall rejoice in the Lord, and hope on him, and all the upright in heart shall be praised.
