Psalms 56

1 For the Leader; upon Jonath-elem-rehokim. A Psalm of David; Michtam; when the Philistines took him in Gath. Be gracious unto me, O God, for man would swallow me up; all the day he fighting oppresseth me.

Kuom jatend wer. E dwol mar “Akuru mopiyo e onera man mabor.” Miktam mar Daudi. Kane jo-Filistia osemake Gath. Kecha, yaye Nyasacha, nikech wasika dwaro monja; odiechiengʼ duto gidiya ma ok aywe.

2 They that lie in wait for me would swallow me up all the day; for they are many that fight against me, O Most High,

Joketh nyinga lawa odiechiengʼ duto; ji mangʼeny monja ka sunga omakogi.

3 In the day that I am afraid, I will put my trust in Thee.

Ka luoro omaka to abiro geno kuomi.

4 In God — I will praise His word — in God do I trust, I will not be afraid; what can flesh do unto me?

Kuom Nyasaye ma apako wachne, in Nyasaye ema aketo genona kuomi omiyo ok abi bedo maluor. Dhano adhana to nyalo timona angʼo?

5 All the day they trouble mine affairs; all their thoughts are against me for evil.

Odiechiengʼ duto gimino koda wach; kinde duto gichano kaka digihinya.

6 They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps; according as they have waited for my soul.

Gikuotho kendo gijimbo wach, ginono okangʼ ka okangʼ ma agoyo, ka gidwaro kawo ngimana.

7 Because of iniquity cast them out; in anger bring down the peoples, O God.

Kik iyie gitony kata matin nikech richo mag-gi, dwok ogendini piny, yaye Nyasaye, gi mirimbi;

8 Thou has counted my wanderings; put Thou my tears into Thy bottle; are they not in Thy book?

Ndik ywak ma aywakgo kwan pi wangʼa machwer e kitapi, donge iketogi e kitabu mari?

9 Then shall mine enemies turn back in the day that I call; this I know, that God is for me.

Eka wasika biro gomo dok ka aluongo kony moa kuomi. Mano ema abiro ngʼeyogo ni Nyasaye en jakora.

10 In God — I will praise His word — in the LORD — I will praise His word —

Kuom Nyasaye ma apako wachne, in Jehova Nyasaye ema apako wachne,

11 In God do I trust, I will not be afraid; what can man do unto me?

kendo Nyasaye ema aketo genona kuome; omiyo ok abi bedo maluor. Dhano adhana to nyalo timona angʼo?

12 Thy vows are upon me, O God; I will render thank-offerings unto Thee.

Asetimo kodi singruok, yaye Nyasaye; abiro chiwoni chiwo maga mag erokamano.

13 For thou hast delivered my soul from death; hast Thou not delivered my feet from stumbling? that I may walk before God in the light of the living.

Nikech iseresa e tho kendo isegengʼo tienda mi ok ochwanyore, mondo mi awuothi e nyim Nyasaye ma en e ler makelo ngima.
