Psalms 10

1 Why standest Thou afar off, O LORD? Why hidest Thou Thyself in times of trouble?

O LEUM GOD, efu kom muta loesla? Efu kom wikinkomla liki kut in pacl upa nu sesr?

2 Through the pride of the wicked the poor is hotly pursued, they are taken in the devices that they have imagined.

Mwet koluk elos filang ac akkeokye mwet sukasrup; Sruokolosi ke mwe kwasrip ma elos sifacna orala.

3 For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, and the covetous vaunteth himself, though he contemn the LORD.

Mwet koluk elos filangkin lungse koluk lalos; Mwet rapku elos fahk kas in selnga ac pilesru LEUM GOD.

4 The wicked, in the pride of his countenance, saith: 'He will not require'; all his thoughts are: 'There is no God.'

Mwet koluk elos tia nunku ke LEUM GOD; Ke inse fulat lalos elos nunku mu God El wangin sripa.

5 His ways prosper at all times; Thy judgments are far above out of his sight; as for all his adversaries, he puffeth at them.

Mwet koluk elos eis wo ouiya in ma nukewa. Elos tia ku in kalem ke nununku lun God; Elos israsrinkusrai mwet lokoalok lalos.

6 He saith in his heart: 'I shall not be moved, I who to all generations shall not be in adversity.'

Elos sifacna nunku insialos mu, “Kut fah tiana sun koluk ouiya; Kut fah tiana muta in ongoiya.”

7 His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and oppression; under his tongue is mischief and iniquity.

Sramsram lalos sessesla ke kas in selnga, kas kikiap, ac kas in aksangeng; Elos sa in fahk kas koluk ma srungayuk.

8 He sitteth in the lurking-places of the villages; in secret places doth he slay the innocent; his eyes are on the watch for the helpless.

Elos wikwik in siti srisrik, Ac soano in akmuseya mwet wangin mwata. Elos kasriki mwet munas;

9 He lieth in wait in a secret place as a lion in his lair, he lieth in wait to catch the poor; he doth catch the poor, when he draweth him up in his net.

Elos wikwik in nien wikwik lalos oana lion uh. Elos muta soano mwet sukasrup; Elos sruokolosi ke mwe kwasrip lalos ac amakunulosla.

10 He croucheth, he boweth down, and the helpless fall into his mighty claws.

Mwet sulallal elos atuyang nu fin mwet munas Ac toasriyalos toanelosi na elos itungyuki oan.

11 He hath said in his heart: 'God hath forgotten; He hideth His face; He will never see.'

Mwet koluk elos sifacna nunku insialos, “God El pilesru ma inge! El kaliya mutal ac El tia ku in liye!”

12 Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up Thy hand; forget not the humble.

O LEUM GOD, sang kaiyuk nu sin mwet koluk ingan! Esamulos su akkeokyeyuk!

13 Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God, and say in his heart: 'Thou wilt not require'?

Fuka tuh mwet koluk uh ku in pilesru God Ac fahk insialos sifacna mu, “El ac fah tia kai kut”?

14 Thou hast seen; for Thou beholdest trouble and vexation, to requite them with Thy hand; unto Thee the helpless committeth himself; Thou hast been the helper of the fatherless.

Tusruktu kom liye na. Kom akilen na ongoiya ac keok lun mwet, Ac kom akola in kasru pacl e nukewa. Mwet munas elos eisaloswot nu sum; Kom kasrelos su enenu in pacl e nukewa.

15 Break Thou the arm of the wicked; and as for the evil man, search out his wickedness, till none be found.

Kunausla ku lun mwet koluk ac mwet sulallal; Kaelos ke ma koluk elos oru Nwe ke elos tia sifil oru.

16 The LORD is King for ever and ever; the nations are perished out of His land.

LEUM GOD El tokosra nu tok ma pahtpat. Elos su alu nu sin kutena god saya Ac fah wanginla liki facl sin God.

17 LORD, Thou hast heard the desire of the humble: Thou wilt direct their heart, Thou wilt cause Thine ear to attend;

O LEUM GOD, kom fah porongo pre lun mwet fakpap; Kom fah akpulaikyalos.

18 To right the fatherless and the oppressed, that man who is of the earth may be terrible no more.

Kom ac fah lohng tung lun mwet mwemelil ac mwet mukaimtal; Nununku lom ac fah wo nu selos, Tuh mwet faclu fah tia sifil aksangengyalos.
