< Psalms 97 >
1 The Lord is King, let the earth have joy; let all the sea-lands be glad.
Jehova Nyasaye e Ruoth, omiyo piny mondo obed mamor; dho nembe man mabor mondo obed moil.
2 Dark clouds are round him; his kingdom is based on righteousness and right judging.
Boche polo gi mudho mandiwa oume; tim makare gi adiera e mise mar lochne.
3 Fire goes before him, burning up all those who are against him round about.
Mach liel e nyime kendo wangʼo wasike e alworane duto.
4 His bright flames give light to the world; the earth saw it with fear.
Mil polo mare menyo piny; piny neno kendo yiengni.
5 The mountains became like wax at the coming of the Lord, at the coming of the Lord of all the earth.
Gode leny nono ka odok e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, gileny nono e nyim Ruoth piny duto.
6 The heavens gave out the news of his righteousness, and all the people saw his glory.
Polo hulo timne makare, kendo ji duto neno duongʼne.
7 Shamed be all those who give worship to images, and take pride in false gods; give him worship, all you gods.
Ji duto malamo gik mokedi wigi okuot; jogo gin joma sungore kuom nyiseche mopa; nyiseche duto mondo olame!
8 Zion gave ear and was glad; and the daughters of Judah were full of joy, because of your decisions, O Lord.
Sayun nowinjo wachno mi obedo moil, miech Juda bende nobedo mamor, nikech bucheni, yaye Jehova Nyasaye.
9 For you, Lord, are most high over the earth; you are lifted up over all other gods.
Nimar in Jehova Nyasaye, e Nyasaye Man Malo Moloyo mohewo piny duto; iduongʼ kendo iyombo nyiseche mamoko duto mabor.
10 You who are lovers of the Lord, be haters of evil; he keeps the souls of his saints; he takes them out of the hand of sinners.
Joma ohero Jehova Nyasaye mondo osin gi gik maricho nimar orito ngima joge ma jo-adiera, kendo oresogi e lwet joma richo.
11 Light is shining on the lovers of righteousness, and for the upright in heart there is joy.
Joma kare imenyonegi ler; joma oriere gie chunygi imiyo mor.
12 Be glad in the Lord, you upright men; praising the memory of his holy name.
Moruru kuom Jehova Nyasaye un joma kare, kendo pakuru nyinge maler.
