< Psalms 143 >
1 [A Psalm by David.] Hear my prayer, YHWH. Listen to my petitions. In your faithfulness and righteousness, relieve me.
Zaburi mar Daudi. Winj lamona, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, chik iti ne ywakna mar kech; bi mondo ikonya nikech in ja-adiera kendo itimo maber.
2 Do not enter into judgment with your servant, for in your sight no man living is righteous.
Kik imi jatichni yud kum nimar onge kata ngʼato achiel matimo maber e nyimi.
3 For the enemy pursues my soul. He has struck my life down to the ground. He has made me live in dark places, as those who have been long dead.
Jasigu lawa matek, oserodha piny nyaka e lowo; ochuna ni nyaka adag kama otimo mudho mana ka joma notho chon gi lala.
4 Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me. My heart within me is desolate.
Omiyo chunya chandore e iya, ee, chunya obwok.
5 I remember the days of old. I meditate on all your doings. I contemplate the work of your hands.
Aparo higni machon mosekalo; aketo pacha mos kuom tijeni duto, kendo ageno gik ma lweti osetimo.
6 I spread forth my hands to you. My soul thirsts for you, like a parched land. (Selah)
Ayaroni lwetena; chunya gombi mana kaka lowo motwo gombo koth. (Sela)
7 Hurry to answer me, YHWH. My spirit fails. Do not hide your face from me, so that I do not become like those who go down into the pit.
Dwoka piyo, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, nimar chunya ool. Kik ipandna wangʼi nono to dipoka achalo gi joma ridore e bur matut.
8 Cause me to hear your loving kindness in the morning, for I trust in you. Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, for I lift up my soul to you.
Mi mondo okinyi oromna gi herani ma ok rem, nimar aketo genona kuomi. Nyisa yo monego alu nimar aketo chunya duto kuomi.
9 Deliver me, YHWH, from my enemies. I run to you for refuge.
Resa e lwet wasika, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, nimar in e jaritna.
10 Teach me to do your will, for you are my God. Your Spirit is good. Lead me in the land of uprightness.
Puonja timo dwaroni, nimar in e Nyasacha; mi mondo Roho mari maber, otelna e yo mopie.
11 Revive me, YHWH, for your name's sake. In your righteousness, bring my soul out of trouble.
Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, kony ngimana nikech nyingi iwuon; gola oko e chandruok nikech timni maber.
12 In your loving kindness, cut off my enemies, and destroy all those who afflict my soul, For I am your servant.
Mi wasika olingʼ thi, nikech herani ma ok rem; tiek joma kedo koda duto nimar an jatichni.
