< Zaburi 97 >
1 Jehova Nyasaye e Ruoth, omiyo piny mondo obed mamor; dho nembe man mabor mondo obed moil.
The Lord reigneth: let the earth be glad; let the multitude of isles rejoice.
2 Boche polo gi mudho mandiwa oume; tim makare gi adiera e mise mar lochne.
Clouds and thick darkness are round about him: righteousness and justice are the support of his throne.
3 Mach liel e nyime kendo wangʼo wasike e alworane duto.
A fire goeth before him, and burneth up round about his adversaries.
4 Mil polo mare menyo piny; piny neno kendo yiengni.
His lightnings give light to the world: the earth seeth it, and trembleth.
5 Gode leny nono ka odok e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, gileny nono e nyim Ruoth piny duto.
The mountains melt away like wax at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the Lord of all the earth.
6 Polo hulo timne makare, kendo ji duto neno duongʼne.
The heavens tell of his righteousness, and all the people his glory.
7 Ji duto malamo gik mokedi wigi okuot; jogo gin joma sungore kuom nyiseche mopa; nyiseche duto mondo olame!
Made ashamed shall be all that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols: unto him bow down all the gods.
8 Sayun nowinjo wachno mi obedo moil, miech Juda bende nobedo mamor, nikech bucheni, yaye Jehova Nyasaye.
Zion heareth it, and rejoiceth; and glad are the daughters of Judah, because of thy decrees, O Lord.
9 Nimar in Jehova Nyasaye, e Nyasaye Man Malo Moloyo mohewo piny duto; iduongʼ kendo iyombo nyiseche mamoko duto mabor.
For thou, O Lord, art the most high above all the earth: thou art greatly exalted above all gods.
10 Joma ohero Jehova Nyasaye mondo osin gi gik maricho nimar orito ngima joge ma jo-adiera, kendo oresogi e lwet joma richo.
Ye that love the Lord, hate ye the evil: he preserveth the souls of his pious ones; out of the hand of the wicked he ever delivereth them.
11 Joma kare imenyonegi ler; joma oriere gie chunygi imiyo mor.
Light is sown for the righteous, and joy for the upright in heart.
12 Moruru kuom Jehova Nyasaye un joma kare, kendo pakuru nyinge maler.
Rejoice, ye righteous, in the Lord, and give thanks to his holy memorial.
