Psalms 35
1 Of David himself. O Lord, judge those who harm me; assail those who attack me.
Zaburi mar Daudi. Yaye Jehova Nyasaye kedi gi joma kedo koda; ked gi joma lawa.
2 Take hold of weapons and a shield, and rise up in assistance to me.
Kaw kuodi gi okumbani; aa malo mondo ibi ikonya.
3 Bring forth the spear, and close in on those who persecute me. Say to my soul, “I am your salvation.”
Chom tongʼ ma dhoge bith mar kedo ibwog-go joma lawa. Wuo gi chunya kiwachone niya, “An e warruokni.”
4 Let them be confounded and in awe, who pursue my soul. Let them be turned back and be confounded, who think up evil against me.
Mad joma dwaro ketho ngimana, ne wichkuot gi achaya. Mad joma chanona hinyruok, chunygi nyosre mi giweya.
5 May they become like dust before the face of the wind, and let the Angel of the Lord hem them in.
Mad gichal gi mihudhi ma yamo tero, ka malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye riembogi mabor;
6 May their way become dark and slippery, and may the Angel of the Lord pursue them.
mad yore ma giluwo bed gi mudho bende yoregigo obed makierogi ka malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye lawogi.
7 For, without cause, they have concealed their snare for me unto destruction. Over nothing, they have rebuked my soul.
Nikech gichikona obadhogi kayiem nono kendo gikunyona bur kayiem mondo alwarie;
8 Let the snare, of which he is ignorant, come upon him, and let the deception, which he has hidden, take hold of him: and may he fall into that very snare.
mad kethruok jukgi apoya ka gikia mad obadhogi ma gisechikona makgi; mad gilwar ei bur ma kargi lal nono.
9 But my soul will exult in the Lord and delight over his salvation.
Eka chunya nobed mamor kuom Jehova Nyasaye kendo anabed gimor kuom warruokne.
10 All my bones will say, “Lord, who is like you?” He rescues the needy from the hand of the stronger one, the indigent and the poor from those who plunder him.
Ringra gi chunya duto, biro hulo kawacho niya, “En ngʼa machalo kodi, yaye Jehova Nyasaye.” Ireso joma odhier e lwet joma nigi teko moloyogi, Adier, ikonyo joma odhier gi jochan kuom joma mayogi.
11 Unfair witnesses have risen up, interrogating me about things of which I am ignorant.
Joma timo neno ma wengegi tek sudo nyime; gipenja gik ma ok angʼeyo gimoro amora kuomgi.
12 They repaid me evil for good, to the deprivation of my soul.
Gichula rach kar ber, kendo giweyo chunya kochwanyore.
13 But as for me, when they were harassing me, I was clothed with haircloth. I humbled my soul with fasting, and my prayer will become my sinews.
To kane gituo magihewore to ne arwako law ywagruok kendo ne abolora katweyo chiemo. Kane lamona ok odwoki,
14 Like a neighbor, and like our brother, so did I please; like one mourning and contrite, so was I humbled.
ne awuotho koni gi koni ka chunya lit, mana ka gima aywago osiepna kata owadwa. Ne akulo wiya ka an gi kuyo maduongʼ mana ka gima aywago minwa.
15 And they have been joyful against me, and they joined together. Scourges have been gathered over me, and I was ignorant of it.
To kane achwanyora, negichokore kaachiel gi mor; joma ne monja nochokorena sa ma ok angʼeyo, negisiko ka giketho nyinga.
16 They have been scattered, yet they were unremorseful. They have tested me. They scoffed at me with scorn. They gnashed their teeth over me.
Kaka joma ok oluoro Nyasaye chayo ji, ne gijara ka gichano timona marach, ne gikayona lekegi.
17 Lord, when will you look down upon me? Restore my soul from before their malice, my only one from before the lions.
Yaye Ruoth, ibiro siko kirango gigi katimore nyaka karangʼo? Res ngimana kuom kethruok duto mag-gi. Akwayi ni ires ngimana ma nengone tek e lwet sibuochegi.
18 I will confess to you in a great Church. I will praise you among a weighty people.
Abiro goyoni erokamano e chokruok maduongʼ; abiro paki e dier oganda maduongʼ mochokore kaachiel.
19 May those who are my unjust adversaries not be glad over me: those who have hated me without cause, and who nod agreement with their eyes.
Kik iyie ni jogo osungre ni gisenyala, joma obedo wasika maonge gima omiyo; iyie joma ochaya maonge gimoro sigre gi wengegi mar timona marach.
20 For indeed, they spoke peacefully to me; and speaking with passion to the earth, they intended deceit.
Ok giwuo gi kwe, to gichano wacho miriambo, kuom joma odak mos e piny.
21 And they opened their mouth wide over me. They said, “Well, well, our eyes have seen.”
Giyawona dhogi maduongʼ kendo nyiera ka giwachona giwacho niya, “Haa! Haa! Wasenene gi wengewa wawegi.”
22 You have seen, O Lord, do not be silent. Lord, do not depart from me.
Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, iseneno timgini; kik ilingʼ. Kik ibed koda mabor, yaye Ruoth Nyasaye.
23 Rise up and be attentive to my judgment, to my cause, my God and my Lord.
Aa malo, kendo chungi mondo ikonya! Kedna, yaye Nyasacha kendo Ruodha.
24 Judge me according to your justice, O Lord, my God, and do not let them be glad over me.
Yala kichwaka kuom timni makare, yaye Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasacha; kik iyienegi gisungre ni gisenyala.
25 Do not let them say in their hearts, “Well, well, to our soul.” Neither let them say, “We have devoured him.”
Kik iwe giwach e chunygi niya, “Ero, otimorene mana kaka ne wadwaro.” Kata giwach niya, “Koro wasemuonye ngili.”
26 Let them blush and be in awe together, those who congratulate at my misfortunes. Let them be clothed with confusion and awe, who speak great things against me.
Mad ji duto mamor nikech chandruokna oyud wichkuot kendo pachgi olal; mad joma kaworena oyud wichkuot gi achaya.
27 Let them exult and rejoice, who wish my justice, and let them ever say, “The Lord be magnified,” who will the peace of his servant.
Mad joma mor kuom loch ma imiya okog gi ilo kod mor; mad gisiki kagiwacho kinde duto niya, “Jehova Nyasaye mondo otingʼ malo nikech omiyo jatichne locho.”
28 And so my tongue will express your justice: your praise all day long.
Abiro pako timni makare kendo kuom pakni duto odiechiengʼ duto.
