Psalms 57
1 For the end. Destroy not: by David, for a memorial, when he fled from the presence of Saul to the cave. Have mercy, upon me, O God, have mercy upon me: for my soul has trusted in you: and in the shadow of your wings will I hope, until the iniquity have passed away.
Kuom jatend wer. E dwond “Kik iketh gik moko.” Miktam mar Daudi. Kane oringone Saulo mi opondo e rogo. Kecha, yaye Nyasaye, yie ikecha nikech kuomi ema chunya yudoe kar pondo. Abiro pondo e bwo tipo mar bwombeni nyaka chop apaka mager rum.
2 I will cry to God most high; the God who has benefited me. (Pause)
Aywagora ne Nyasaye Man Malo Moloyo, Nyasaye machopona chenroge ema aywakne.
3 He sent from heaven and saved me; he gave to reproach them that trampled on me: God has sent forth his mercy and his truth;
Ooro wach gie polo kendo oresa, kokwero joma lawa gi tekregi duto; (Sela) Nyasaye oro herane gi adiera mare.
4 and he has delivered my soul from the midst of [lions']whelps: I lay down to sleep, [though] troubled. [As for] the sons of men, their teeth are arms and [missile] weapons, and their tongue a sharp sword.
An e dier sibuoche; anindo e dier le mager mangemo, joma lekegi chalo tonge gi aserni, ma lewgi chalo ligangla mabitho.
5 Be you exalted, O God, above the heavens; and your glory above all the earth.
Nyingi mondo otingʼ malo moyombo polo, yaye Nyasaye; mad duongʼ mari opongʼ piny duto.
6 They have prepared snares for my feet, and have bowed down my soul: they have dug a pit before my face, and fallen into it [themselves]. (Pause)
Ne giyaro jogo mondo omak tiendena, kane chuny lit odola. Ne gikunyo bugo e yora, to kata kamano gin giwegi ema giselutore e iye. (Sela)
7 My heart, O God, [is] ready, my heart [is] ready: I will sing, yes will sing psalms.
Chunya otegno, yaye Nyasaye, chunya otegno; abiro paki gi wer kendo abiro loso wer mamit.
8 Awake, my glory; awake, lute and harp: I will awake early.
Chiew, in chunya! Chiewuru un orutu gi nyatiti! Abiro chiewo kogwen.
9 O Lord, I will give thanks to you among the nations: I will sing to you among the Gentiles.
Abiro paki e dier ogendini, yaye Jehova Nyasaye. Abiro werni e dier ogendini.
10 For your mercy has been magnified even to the heavens, and your truth to the clouds.
Nikech herani maduongʼ chopo nyaka e polo; kendo adiera mari chopo nyaka ewi lwasi.
11 Be you exalted, O God, above the heavens; and your glory above all the earth.
Nyingi mondo otingʼ malo moyombo polo, yaye Nyasaye; mad duongʼ mari opongʼ piny duto.
