< Psalms 58 >

1 To the chief Musician. 'Destroy not.' Of David. Michtam. Is righteousness indeed silent? Do ye speak it? Do ye judge with equity, ye sons of men?
[Psalm lal David] Kowos leum lun faclu, ya oasr pacl kowos oru nununku suwohs? Ya kowos oru nununku lowos fal nu sin mwet nukewa?
2 Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh out the violence of your hands in the earth.
Mo, kowos nunku na ke ma koluk kowos in oru, Ac orekma sulallal fin acn uh.
3 The wicked go astray from the womb; they err as soon as they are born, speaking lies.
Mwet koluk elos oru ma sufal in moul lalos nufon; Elos nuna kikiap oe ke elos isusla ah.
4 Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: [they are] like the deaf adder which stoppeth her ear;
Elos nwanala ke pwasin, oana wet uh; Elos fonosya insraclos in sulohngkas oana wet cobra
5 Which doth not hearken to the voice of enchanters, of one charming ever so wisely.
Su tia lohng pusren on lun mwet akmunayalos, Ku pusren pas lun mwet orek mwenmen.
6 O God, break their teeth in their mouth; break out the great teeth of the young lions, O Jehovah.
O God, kotalik wihsen lion sulallal inge.
7 Let them melt away as waters that flow off; when he aimeth his arrows, let them be as blunted:
Finsrak tuh elos in wanginla oana kof ma sororla nwe wanginla; Lela tuh elos in itungyuki oana mah su oan inkanek uh.
8 Let them be as a snail that melteth as it passeth away; [like] the untimely birth of a woman, let them not see the sun.
Lela elos in oana ful finmes uh ma ekla nu ke ma fulful ke ac misa; Lela tuh elos in oana sie tulik fusr su isusla ke pacl sufal la ac misa ac tiana liye kalem uh.
9 Before your pots feel the thorns, green or burning, — they shall be whirled away.
Meet liki elos esmakla, in pakpukla elos oana mah pilasr; Elos in srakna moul A God Elan okulosla in kasrkusrak lal.
10 The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance; he shall wash his footsteps in the blood of the wicked:
Mwet suwoswos elos ac fah engan ke elos liye lah kaiyuk mwet koluk uh; Elos ac fah fahsr sasla in srahn mwet koluk.
11 And men shall say, Verily there is fruit for the righteous; verily there is a God that judgeth in the earth.
Ouinge mwet elos fah fahk, “Mwet suwoswos elos eis lacnen orekma wo lalos; Pwayena lah oasr God se nununku faclu.”
