Psalms 17
1 A prayer of David. Lord, please hear my cry for justice! Please pay attention to my call for help! Listen to the prayer of an honest man!
Hina Gode! Na sia: be goe nabima. Na moloidafa fofada: su ba: ma: ne Dima edegesa. Na da Dia na fidima: ne Dima diginiwane wele sia: sa. Dia nabima. Na da ogogole hame sia: ne gadosa.
2 Vindicate me before you—for you see what is right.
Dia da na moloidafa hou dawa: beba: le, Dia da na fidima: ne fofada: mu.
3 You have observed my thoughts, you have visited me at night, you have examined me—and you have found nothing wrong. I promised myself I wouldn't say anything I shouldn't.
Dia na dogo dawa: Di da gasi ganodini nama misini, na hou huluane abodele ba: su. Di da na hou amo ganodini, wadela: i hanai hou hamedafa ba: i.
4 With regard to the actions of others: I have done what you told me and I have avoided what violent people do.
Eno dunu da wadela: i sia: bagade sia: sa. Be na lafiga agoai hame sia: sa. Na da Dia hamoma: ne sia: i amo fa: no bobogei. Amola nimi bagade hou amoma hame fa: no bobogei.
5 I have not strayed from your path; my feet have not slipped from it.
Na da eso huluane Dia logodili ahoasu amola na da afuda: le hamedafa asi.
6 God, I call out to you because I know you will answer; please listen carefully to what I have to say.
Hina Gode! Na Dima sia: ne gadosu amo da Dia na sia: ne gadobe bu alofele iaha. Amaiba: le, nama ba: leguda: le, na sia nabima.
7 Show me how wonderful your trustworthy love really is, Savior of those who come to you for protection against their enemies!
Dia asigidafa hou amo nama olelema amola na gaga: ma. Na da Di guga esalea, na da na ha lai ilima gaga: i dagoi ba: sa.
8 Keep me safe as someone you love; hide me underneath your wings.
Di da Dia si amoma gaga: su hou amo defele, na gaga: ma. Wadela: i hamosu dunu da nama doagala: sa: besa: le, Dia ogelebaha na wamolegema. Nimi bagade ha lai dunu da na guba: le sisiga: sa. Ilia da asigi hou hame dawa: amola ilia da gasa fili sia: daha.
9 Protect me from the attacks of the wicked who want to destroy me, from my enemies who surround me, intent on killing me.
10 They have no compassion, and all they have to say is pure arrogance.
11 They hunt me down and surround me, looking for the chance to knock me down in the dust.
Ilia da na sisiga: le disi. Ilia da na hiougia gudumusa: logo hogoi helesa.
12 They are like lions, longing to tear their prey apart; like fierce lions crouching in ambush.
Ilia da soge laione wa: me agoai, na desega aligili medole manusa: amola dodosa: ne manusa: oulela.
13 Lord, stand up and confront them! Force them to back down! By your sword rescue me from the wicked!
Hina Gode misa! Na ha lai ilima gegene sefasima. Amola, ilima hasalasima. Dia gobihei bagade amoga gegebeba: le, na gaga: ma.
14 Lord, by your power, save me from people whose only thought is for this world. May they be filled with what you have in store for them, their children too, with left-overs for their grandchildren!
Wadela: i hamosu dunu da osobo bagadega esalea, ilia da ilia hanai liligi huluane gagusa. Ilia da nama ha laiba: le, Di na gaga: ma. Dia da se iasu bagade ilima ima: ne, gagadole ilegei dagoi. Amo se iasu da ilima ianu, ili baligili amola ilia mano amola ilia mano ilia mano amo defele ilima se iasu ima: ne ba: mu da defea.
15 As for me, I shall see your face in all its goodness. When I awake, I will be so pleased to see you face to face.
Be na da wadela: le hame hamoiba: le, na da Di ba: mu. Amola, na da nedigisia, Di guga esalebeba: le, na da hahawane bagade ba: mu.
