Psalms 27
1 Jehovah is my light and my salvation, whom shall I fear? Jehovah is the strength of my life, of whom shall I be afraid?
Zaburi mar Daudi. Jehova Nyasaye e lerna kendo e warruokna; en ngʼa ma daluor? Jehova Nyasaye e kama ngimana opondoe. En ngʼa ma dibwoga?
2 When evildoers came upon me to eat up my flesh, even my adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell.
Ka joma richo lawa mondo oketh ngimana, ka wasika kod joma kedo koda monja, to gibiro kier mi gipodhi.
3 Though an army should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear. Though war should rise against me, even then I will be confident.
Kata ka jolweny ogoyona agengʼa koni gi koni, to chunya ok bi luor; kata ka lweny otugorena, to pod abiro mana bedo gi chir.
4 One thing I have asked of Jehovah, that I will seek after, that I may dwell in the house of Jehovah all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of Jehovah, and to inquire in his temple.
Gimoro achiel kende ema akwayo Jehova Nyasaye, ma e gima adwaro moloyo; ni mondo adag e od Jehova Nyasaye ndalo duto mag ngimana, mondo achom wangʼa kuom ber mar Jehova Nyasaye kendo amanye e hekalu mare.
5 For in the day of trouble he will hide me in his pavilion. In the covert of his tabernacle he will hide me. He will lift me up upon a rock.
Nikech chiengʼ ma chandruok omaka obiro panda maber e kar dakne; obiro panda e kar pondo mar hembe maler kendo obiro keta malo ewi lwanda.
6 And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies round about me. And I will offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy. I will sing, yea, I will sing praises to Jehovah.
Eka abiro bedo jaloch ka aloyo wasigu duto molwora; abiro timo misango mar pak ka akok gimor e hembe maler. Abiro wer kendo abiro loso wende mamit ne Jehova Nyasaye.
7 Hear, O Jehovah, when I cry with my voice. Have mercy also upon me, and answer me.
Winj dwonda ka aluongo, yaye Jehova Nyasaye; kecha kendo idwoka.
8 My heart said to thee, I have sought thy face. O Jehovah, I will seek thy face.
Chunya wuoyo kuomi kawacho niya, “Many wangʼ Nyasaye ka ilemo!” Wangʼi, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, ema abiro manyo.
9 Hide not thy face from me. Put not thy servant away in anger. Thou have been my help. Cast me not off, nor forsake me, O God of my salvation.
Kik ipandna wangʼi, kik iriemb jatichni ka mirima omaki, in ema isebedo jakonyna. Kik ikweda bende kik ijwangʼa, yaye Nyasaye Jawarna.
10 When my father and my mother forsake me, then Jehovah will take me up.
Kata obedo ni wuonwa gi minwa ojwangʼa to Jehova Nyasaye biro rwaka.
11 Teach me thy way, O Jehovah, and lead me in a plain path, because of my enemies.
Puonja yoreni, yaye Jehova Nyasaye; telna e yo moriere tir, nikech joma sanda.
12 Deliver me not over to the will of my adversaries. For false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.
Kik ijwangʼa ne dwach wasika, nikech joneno mag miriambo oramona matek, ka gichano mar hinya.
13 I believe that I shall see the goodness of Jehovah in the land of the living.
To an gi ratiro kuom wachni: ni pod abiro neno ber Jehova Nyasaye, e piny joma ngima.
14 Wait for Jehovah. Be strong, and let thy heart take courage. Yea, wait thou for Jehovah.
Gen kuom Jehova Nyasaye; bed motegno ka in gi chir, kendo rit kuom Jehova Nyasaye.
