Psalms 71
1 By David, [a Psalm sung by] the sons of Jonadab, and the first that were taken captive. O Lord, I have hoped in you: let me never be put to shame.
LEUM GOD, nga tuku in wikla yurum; Nikmet lela in kutangyukla nga.
2 In your righteousness deliver me and rescue me: incline your ear to me, and save me.
Ke suwoswos lom, kom in kasreyu ac loangeyu. Porongeyu ac moliyula.
3 Be to me a protecting God, and a strong hold to save me: for you are my fortress and my refuge.
Kom fah eot in molela luk, Ac nien wikla ku luk in langoeyu, Tuh kom eot ku ac nien muta ku luk.
4 Deliver me, O my God, from the hand of the sinner, from the hand of the transgressor and unjust man.
O God luk, moliyula liki poun mwet koluk, Liki ku lun mwet sesuwos ac mwet sulallal.
5 For you are my support, O Lord; O Lord, [you are] my hope from my youth.
LEUM GOD Kulana, nga filiya finsrak luk in kom; Nga nuna lulalfongi kom oe ke pacl nga srakna tulik.
6 On you have I been stayed from the womb: from the belly of my mother you are my protector: of you is my praise continually.
Nga nuna lulalfongi kom in moul luk nufon. Kom karinginyu na oe ke nga isusla ah me. Nga ac fah kaksakin kom pacl e nukewa.
7 I am become as it were a wonder to many: but you are [my] strong helper.
Moul luk sie mwe srikasrak nu sin mwet pus, Mweyen kom mwet kasru ku luk.
8 Let my mouth be filled with praise, that I may hymn your glory, [and] your majesty all the day.
Ke len nufon nga kaksakin kom Ac fahkak wolana lom.
9 Cast me not off at the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength fails.
Nikmet sisyula inge ke nga matuoh; Ac nikmet ngetla likiyu inge ke nga munasla.
10 For mine enemies have spoken against me; and they that lay wait for my soul have taken counsel together,
Mwet lokoalok luk lungse in uniyuwi, Elos kaskas keik ac pwapa in lainyu.
11 saying, God has forsaken him: persecute you and take him; for there is none to deliver [him].
Elos fahk, “God El sisella tari. Kut som sruokilya, Tuh wangin mwet ac molella.”
12 O God, go not far from me, O my God, draw near to my help.
O God, nikmet muta loesla likiyu, God luk, aksaye kasreyu.
13 Let those that plot against my soul be ashamed and utterly fail: let those that seek my hurt be clothed with shame and dishonour.
Lela tuh elos su lainyu In kutangyukla ac kunausyukla. Lela tuh elos su suk in akkolukyeyu In akmwekinyeyuk ac akkolukyeyuk.
14 But I will hope continually, and will praise you more and more.
Nga ac fah filiya finsrak luk in kom pacl e nukewa; Nga fah kalwenina in akyokye pusren kaksak luk nu sum.
15 My mouth shall declare your righteousness openly, [and] your salvation all the day; for I am not acquainted with the affairs [of men].
Nga ac fah fahkak wolana lom — Ke lusenna len uh nga fah sramsram ke molela lom, Finne yohk liki na ma nga ku in kalem kac.
16 I will go on in the might of the Lord: O Lord, I will make mention of your righteousness only.
Nga ac fah fahsr ke ku lun LEUM GOD, Nga fah fahkak wolana lom, tuh kom mukena wo.
17 O God, you have taught me from my youth, and until now will I declare your wonders;
God, kom lutiyu ke nga tulik me, Ac nga srakna fahkak orekma wolana lom.
18 even until I am old and advanced in years. O God, forsake me not; until I shall have declared your arm to all the generation that is to come:
Inge ke nga matuoh ac fiaya, O God, nik kom fahsr likiyu. Wiyu ke nga fahkak ku lulap lom Nu sin fwil nukewa su ac fah tuku.
19 even your power and your righteousness, O God, up to the highest [heavens, even] the mighty works which you has done: O God, who is like to you?
Suwoswos lom, O God, sowak ac sun kusrao, Tuh kom oru ma usrnguk; Wangin sie oana kom.
20 What afflictions many and sore have you showed me! yet you did turn and quicken me, and brought me again from the depths of the earth.
Kom tuh supwama mwe ongoiya ac mwe keok nu fuk, Tusruktu kom ac fah sifil folokonma ku luk. Kom ac fah sruokyuwi liki inkulyuk uh.
21 You did multiply your righteousness, and did turn and comfort me, and brought me again out of the depths of the earth.
Kom ac fah oru tuh nga in fulat liki meet, Ac kom fah sifil akwoyeyu.
22 I will also therefore give thanks to you, O God, [because of] your truth, on an instrument of psalmody: I will sing psalms to you on the harp, O Holy One of Israel.
Pwaye nga ac fah kaksakin kom ke pusren harp; Nga ac fah kaksakin oaru lom, God luk. Nga fah sritalkin harp nutik in on nu sum, Kom su Mutallana lun Israel.
23 My lips shall rejoice when I sing to you; and my soul, which you have redeemed.
Nga ac fah wowoyak ke engan ke nga srital nu sum; Ke moul luk nufon nga ac fah on, Mweyen kom moliyula.
24 Moreover also my tongue shall dwell all the day upon your righteousness; when they shall be ashamed and confounded that seek my hurt.
Nga ac fah kaskas ke suwoswos lom ke lusen len nufon, Mweyen elos su srike in akkolukyeyu Elos kutangyukla ac aklusrongtenyeyukla.
