< Psalms 52 >

1 TO THE OVERSEER. AN INSTRUCTION OF DAVID, IN THE COMING IN OF DOEG THE EDOMITE, AND HE DECLARES TO SAUL AND SAYS TO HIM, “DAVID CAME TO THE HOUSE OF AHIMELECH.” Why do you boast in evil, O mighty one? The kindness of God [is] all the day.
[Psalm lal David, ma Simla tukun Doeg, Mwet Edom, el som nu yorol Saul ac Fahk nu sel lah David el Som tari nu lohm sel Ahimelech.] O mwet fulat se, efu kom ku konkin ke ma koluk lom? Lungkulang lun God uh oan nwe tok.
2 Your tongue devises mischiefs, Like a sharp razor, working deceit.
Kom suk inkanek in akkolukye mwet saya. Loum oana sie resa kosroh. Kom kinauk kikiap in pacl nukewa.
3 You have loved evil rather than good, Lying, than speaking righteousness. (Selah)
Kom lungse ma koluk yohk liki ma wo, Ac ma sutuu yohk liki ma pwaye.
4 You have loved all devouring words, O you deceitful tongue.
Kom lungsena akngalye mwet ke kas lom, kom mwet kikiap!
5 Also—God breaks you down forever, Takes you, and pulls you out of the tent, And He has uprooted you Out of the land of the living. (Selah)
Ke ma inge God El ac fah kunauskomla nwe tok; El ac fah sruokkomi ac tulakinkomla liki lohm sum; El ac fah moklekomla liki facl sin mwet moul.
6 And the righteous see, And fear, and laugh at him.
Ke mwet suwoswos elos ac liye ma inge elos ac fah sangeng; Na elos ac fah isrun kom ac fahk,
7 “Behold, the man who does not make God his strong place, And trusts in the abundance of his riches, He is strong in his mischiefs.”
“Liye, pa inge sie mwet su tia suk kasru sin God, A el lulalfongi na ke mwe kasrup yohk lal sifacna, Ac suk moul misla nu sel ke inkanek in sulallal.”
8 And I, as a green olive in the house of God, I have trusted in the kindness of God, For all time and forever,
A funu nga, nga oana soko sak olive su kapak in lohm sin God; Nga ac lulalfongi ke lungse kawil lal nwe tok.
9 I thank You for all time, because You have done [it], And I wait [on] Your Name for [it is] good before Your saints!
Nga ac fah kulo nu sum pacl nukewa, O God, ke orekma lom; Ye mutun mwet lom Nga ac fah fahkak tuh kom wo.
