Zaburi 84

1 Kuom jatend wer. Kaluwore gi gitith. Zaburi mar Yawuot Kora. Mano kaka hekalu mari ber miwuoro, yaye Jehova Nyasaye Maratego!

[For the Chief Musician. On an instrument of Gath. A Psalm by the sons of Korah.] How lovely are your dwellings, LORD of hosts.

2 Chunya gombo kendo njawni ka agombo bedo e od Jehova Nyasaye; Chunya gi denda duto wer gi mor ne Nyasaye mangima.

My soul longs, yes, yearns for the courts of the LORD. My heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.

3 Nyaka winj oyundi oseloso kar dakne, kendo opija bende osegero ode, kama onyalo nywole nyithinde, but kendoni mar misango, yaye Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Ruodha kendo Nyasacha.

Yes, the sparrow has found a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may have her young, near your altars, LORD of hosts, my King, and my God.

4 Ogwedh joma odak e odi; mosiko ka paki. (Sela)

Blessed are those who dwell in your house. They are ever praising you. (Selah)

5 Ogwedh joma tekregi ni kuomi jogo moketo chunygi e luwo yori maler.

Blessed are those whose strength is in you, who have set their hearts on a pilgrimage.

6 Ka gikadho e Holo mar Baka to gimiyo obedo kama opongʼ gi sokni; kendo kodh opon bende pongʼe gi yewni.

Passing through the Valley of Baca, he makes it into a spring. Yes, the autumn rain covers it with blessings.

7 Tekreni osiko medore ameda, nyaka chop moro ka moro kuomgi chop Sayun e nyim Nyasaye.

They go from strength to strength. Everyone of them appears before God in Zion.

8 Yie iwinj lemona, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasaye Maratego; chikna iti, yaye Nyasach Jakobo. (Sela)

LORD, God of hosts, hear my prayer. Listen, God of Jacob. (Selah)

9 Tingʼ wangʼi ine okumbawa, yaye Nyasaye; rang ngʼati miwiro gi ngʼwono.

Look, God our shield, look at the face of your anointed.

10 Bet e laru mari kuom odiechiengʼ achiel ber moloyo bet kamachielo kuom higni alufu achiel; daher bedo jarit dhoot e od Nyasacha, moloyo dak e hembe joma timbegi richo.

For a day in your courts is better than a thousand. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.

11 Nimar Jehova Nyasaye en chiengʼ kendo en okumba; Jehova Nyasaye chiwo ngʼwono gi duongʼ; ok otuon joma wuodhgi oriere tir gimoro amora maber.

For the LORD God is a sun and a shield. The LORD will give grace and glory. He withholds no good thing from those who walk blamelessly.

12 Yaye Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ngʼama ogeno kuomi ogwedhi.

LORD of hosts, blessed is the man who trusts in you.
