Zaburi 70

1 Kuom jatend wer. Kwayo mar Daudi. Ret piyo mondo iresa, yaye Nyasaye; bi piyo mondo ikonya, yaye Jehova Nyasaye.

Unto the end, a psalm for David, to bring to remembrance that the Lord saved him. O God, come to my assistance; O Lord, make haste to help me.

2 Mad joma dwaro ngimana yud wichkuot kendo pachgi lal; mad ji duto ma gombona hinyruok dog kuma giaye ka giyudo achaya.

Let them be confounded and ashamed that seek my soul:

3 Mad joma wachona niya, “Haa! Haa!” Dog kuma giaye ka wichkuot omakogi.

Let them be turned backward, and blush for shame that desire evils to me: Let them be presently turned away blushing for shame that say to me: Tis well, tis well.

4 To mad ji duto madwari bed moil kendo mamor kuomi; mad joma ohero warruok mari osik kawacho niya, “Jehova Nyasaye mondo oyud duongʼ!”

Let all that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee; and let such as love thy salvation say always: The Lord be magnified.

5 Adhier kendo achando; bi ira piyo, yaye Nyasaye. In e konyruokna kendo jaresna; kik ideki, yaye Jehova Nyasaye.

But I am needy and poor; O God, help me. Thou art my helper and my deliverer: O Lord, make no delay.
