< Psalms 143 >
1 A Psalm of David. O LORD, hear my prayer, give ear to my supplications; in Thy faithfulness answer me, and in Thy righteousness.
Zaburi mar Daudi. Winj lamona, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, chik iti ne ywakna mar kech; bi mondo ikonya nikech in ja-adiera kendo itimo maber.
2 And enter not into judgment with Thy servant; for in Thy sight shall no man living be justified.
Kik imi jatichni yud kum nimar onge kata ngʼato achiel matimo maber e nyimi.
3 For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; he hath crushed my life down to the ground; he hath made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been long dead.
Jasigu lawa matek, oserodha piny nyaka e lowo; ochuna ni nyaka adag kama otimo mudho mana ka joma notho chon gi lala.
4 And my spirit fainteth within me; my heart within me is appalled.
Omiyo chunya chandore e iya, ee, chunya obwok.
5 I remember the days of old; I meditate on all Thy doing; I muse on the work of Thy hands.
Aparo higni machon mosekalo; aketo pacha mos kuom tijeni duto, kendo ageno gik ma lweti osetimo.
6 I spread forth my hands unto Thee; my soul thirsteth after Thee, as a weary land. (Selah)
Ayaroni lwetena; chunya gombi mana kaka lowo motwo gombo koth. (Sela)
7 Answer me speedily, O LORD, my spirit faileth; hide not Thy face from me; lest I become like them that go down into the pit.
Dwoka piyo, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, nimar chunya ool. Kik ipandna wangʼi nono to dipoka achalo gi joma ridore e bur matut.
8 Cause me to hear Thy lovingkindness in the morning, for in Thee do I trust; cause me to know the way wherein I should walk, for unto Thee have I lifted up my soul.
Mi mondo okinyi oromna gi herani ma ok rem, nimar aketo genona kuomi. Nyisa yo monego alu nimar aketo chunya duto kuomi.
9 Deliver me from mine enemies, O LORD; with Thee have I hidden myself.
Resa e lwet wasika, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, nimar in e jaritna.
10 Teach me to do Thy will, for Thou art my God; let Thy good spirit lead me in an even land.
Puonja timo dwaroni, nimar in e Nyasacha; mi mondo Roho mari maber, otelna e yo mopie.
11 For Thy name's sake, O LORD, quicken me; in Thy righteousness bring my soul out of trouble.
Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, kony ngimana nikech nyingi iwuon; gola oko e chandruok nikech timni maber.
12 And in Thy mercy cut off mine enemies, and destroy all them that harass my soul; for I am Thy servant.
Mi wasika olingʼ thi, nikech herani ma ok rem; tiek joma kedo koda duto nimar an jatichni.
