Zaburi 70

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

To the Chief Musician. David’s. To call to Remembrance. [Be pleased] O God, to rescue me, O Yahweh, to help me—make haste.

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

Let them turn pale and then at once blush, Who are seeking my life, —Let them draw back, and be confounded, Who are taking pleasure in my misfortune;

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

Let them turn back, on account of their own shame, Who are saying, Aha! Aha!

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 them be glad and rejoice in thee, Yea, let them, who are seekers of thee, —say continually, God be magnified! Who are lovers of thy salvation.

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

But, I, being humbled and needy, O God, haste to me, —My help and my deliverer, art thou, O Yahweh do not tarry.
