Psalms 35
1 “Of David.” Contend, O Lord, with those that contend with me: fight against those that fight against me.
Zaburi mar Daudi. Yaye Jehova Nyasaye kedi gi joma kedo koda; ked gi joma lawa.
2 Take hold of shield and buckler, and rise up for my help.
Kaw kuodi gi okumbani; aa malo mondo ibi ikonya.
3 And draw out the spear, and step in against my pursuers; say unto my soul, I am thy salvation.
Chom tongʼ ma dhoge bith mar kedo ibwog-go joma lawa. Wuo gi chunya kiwachone niya, “An e warruokni.”
4 Let those be put to shame and be confounded that seek after my life: let those be turned backward and be made to blush, that devise unhappiness for me.
Mad joma dwaro ketho ngimana, ne wichkuot gi achaya. Mad joma chanona hinyruok, chunygi nyosre mi giweya.
5 Let them be as chaff before the wind; and may the angel of the Lord cast them forth.
Mad gichal gi mihudhi ma yamo tero, ka malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye riembogi mabor;
6 May their way be dark and slippery: and may the angel of the Lord pursue them.
mad yore ma giluwo bed gi mudho bende yoregigo obed makierogi ka malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye lawogi.
7 For without cause have they hidden for me their net in a pit, without cause have they dug [pit-falls] against my life.
Nikech gichikona obadhogi kayiem nono kendo gikunyona bur kayiem mondo alwarie;
8 May then destruction come upon each of them at unawares; and may his net that he hath hidden catch himself: in [utter] destruction let him fall therein.
mad kethruok jukgi apoya ka gikia mad obadhogi ma gisechikona makgi; mad gilwar ei bur ma kargi lal nono.
9 But my soul shall exult in the Lord: she shall be glad through his salvation.
Eka chunya nobed mamor kuom Jehova Nyasaye kendo anabed gimor kuom warruokne.
10 All my bones will say, Lord, who is like unto thee, who deliverest the poor from him that is too strong for him, yea, the poor and the needy from him that robbeth him?
Ringra gi chunya duto, biro hulo kawacho niya, “En ngʼa machalo kodi, yaye Jehova Nyasaye.” Ireso joma odhier e lwet joma nigi teko moloyogi, Adier, ikonyo joma odhier gi jochan kuom joma mayogi.
11 There rise up witnesses of violence; concerning what I know not they question me.
Joma timo neno ma wengegi tek sudo nyime; gipenja gik ma ok angʼeyo gimoro amora kuomgi.
12 They recompense me with evil in place of good, [bringing] bereavement on my soul.
Gichula rach kar ber, kendo giweyo chunya kochwanyore.
13 But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth: I afflicted with fasting my soul, and my prayer returned into my own bosom.
To kane gituo magihewore to ne arwako law ywagruok kendo ne abolora katweyo chiemo. Kane lamona ok odwoki,
14 As though he had been to me a friend or a brother did I walk about: as one that mourneth for a mother did I sorrowfully bend down my head.
ne awuotho koni gi koni ka chunya lit, mana ka gima aywago osiepna kata owadwa. Ne akulo wiya ka an gi kuyo maduongʼ mana ka gima aywago minwa.
15 But in my downfall they rejoiced, and gathered themselves together; there gathered themselves together against me abject wretches, whom I knew not; they did tear me, and ceased not:
To kane achwanyora, negichokore kaachiel gi mor; joma ne monja nochokorena sa ma ok angʼeyo, negisiko ka giketho nyinga.
16 With hypocritical babbling mockers, they gnashed upon me with their teeth.
Kaka joma ok oluoro Nyasaye chayo ji, ne gijara ka gichano timona marach, ne gikayona lekegi.
17 O Lord, how long wilt thou look on? rescue my soul from their destructions, from the young lions my solitary spirit.
Yaye Ruoth, ibiro siko kirango gigi katimore nyaka karangʼo? Res ngimana kuom kethruok duto mag-gi. Akwayi ni ires ngimana ma nengone tek e lwet sibuochegi.
18 I will thank thee in the great assembly: among a mighty people will I praise thee.
Abiro goyoni erokamano e chokruok maduongʼ; abiro paki e dier oganda maduongʼ mochokore kaachiel.
19 Let not rejoice over me those that are my enemies wrongfully: [nor] let those who hate me without cause wink with the eye.
Kik iyie ni jogo osungre ni gisenyala, joma obedo wasika maonge gima omiyo; iyie joma ochaya maonge gimoro sigre gi wengegi mar timona marach.
20 For they speak not peace; but against the quiet in the land they devise deceitful words.
Ok giwuo gi kwe, to gichano wacho miriambo, kuom joma odak mos e piny.
21 Yea, they opened wide against me their mouth; they said, Aha, aha, our eye hath seen it.
Giyawona dhogi maduongʼ kendo nyiera ka giwachona giwacho niya, “Haa! Haa! Wasenene gi wengewa wawegi.”
22 Thou hast seen it, O Lord! remain not silent: O Lord, be not far from me.
Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, iseneno timgini; kik ilingʼ. Kik ibed koda mabor, yaye Ruoth Nyasaye.
23 Arouse thyself, and awake to do me justice, my God and my Lord, unto my cause.
Aa malo, kendo chungi mondo ikonya! Kedna, yaye Nyasacha kendo Ruodha.
24 Judge me according to thy righteousness, O Lord my God; and let them not rejoice over me.
Yala kichwaka kuom timni makare, yaye Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasacha; kik iyienegi gisungre ni gisenyala.
25 Let them not say in their heart, Aha, [this is the wish of] our soul: let them not say, We have swallowed him up.
Kik iwe giwach e chunygi niya, “Ero, otimorene mana kaka ne wadwaro.” Kata giwach niya, “Koro wasemuonye ngili.”
26 Let those be made ashamed and put to the blush together that rejoice at my mishap; let them be clothed with shame and confusion that magnify themselves above me.
Mad ji duto mamor nikech chandruokna oyud wichkuot kendo pachgi olal; mad joma kaworena oyud wichkuot gi achaya.
27 Let those shout, and rejoice, that desire my righteousness: yea, let them say continually, Great is the Lord, who desireth the welfare of his servant.
Mad joma mor kuom loch ma imiya okog gi ilo kod mor; mad gisiki kagiwacho kinde duto niya, “Jehova Nyasaye mondo otingʼ malo nikech omiyo jatichne locho.”
28 And my tongue shall speak of thy righteousness, all the day of thy praise.
Abiro pako timni makare kendo kuom pakni duto odiechiengʼ duto.
