Psalms 143
1 “A psalm of David.” O Lord, hear my prayer, give ear to my supplications: in thy faithfulness answer me, in thy righteousness.
[Psalm lal David] LEUM GOD, lohng pre luk; Ke suwoswos lom, porongo mwe siyuk luk; Ke oaru lom, topukyu!
2 And enter not into judgment with thy servant; for no living man can be regarded righteous before thee.
Nik kom nununkeyu, mwet kulansap lom. Wangin sie mwet suwoswos ye motom.
3 For the enemy hath pursued my soul; he hath crushed to the ground my life; he hath made me dwell in darkness, as those that are dead eternally.
Mwet lokoalok luk elos ukweyu Nwe ke na elos kutangyula. Elos filiyuwi in sie presin lohsr, A nga oana elos su nu misa pacl loeloes somla.
4 And my spirit within me is overwhelmed: in my bosom is my heart astounded.
Ke ma inge nga akola in fuhleak finsrak luk; Insiuk arulana toasrla.
5 I remember the days of olden times: I meditate on all thy doings: on the work of thy hands do I reflect.
Nga esamak ke pacl meet ah; Nga nunku ke ma nukewa kom oru, Ac nga esamak orekma lom nukewa.
6 I spread forth my hands unto thee: my soul [longeth] for thee, as a thirsty land. (Selah)
Nga asroeak pouk nu sum ke nga pre; Ngunik malu keim, oana ke infohk uh paolana.
7 Hasten, answer me, O Lord, my spirit falleth: hide not thy face from me, that I may not become like those that go down into the pit.
Topukyu inge, LEUM GOD, Wanginla finsrak luk. Nik kom wikinkomla likiyu, Ac pwanang nga in welulosla su oatula nu infulan misa.
8 Cause me to hear in the morning thy kindness; for in thee do I trust: cause me to know the way whereon I should walk; for unto thee do I lift up my soul.
Akesmakinyeyu ke lungkulang lom ke lututang nukewa, Tuh nga filiya lulalfongi luk in kom. Pre luk sowak nu yurum. Akkalemye nu sik inkanek nga in fahsr kac.
9 Deliver me, O Lord, from my enemies: by thee do I seek shelter.
LEUM GOD, nga kaing nu yurum tuh kom in karinginyu; Moliyula liki mwet lokoalok luk.
10 Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; guide me on a level land.
Lutiyu nga in oru ma lungse lom, Tuh kom God luk. Oru wo nu sik, ac kolyu ke inkanek wo.
11 For thy sake, O Lord, revive me: in thy righteousness bring forth out of distress my soul.
LEUM GOD, moliyula oana kom tuh wulela. Ke wolana lom, moliyula liki mwe ongoiya nu sik.
12 And in thy kindness destroy my enemies, and annihilate all the adversaries of my soul; far I am thy servant.
Ke sripen lungse lom nu sik, uniya mwet lokoalok luk, Ac kunausla mwet nukewa su akkeokyeyu, Mweyen nga mwet kulansap lom.
