< Psalms 39 >

1 [For the Chief Musician. For Jeduthun. A Psalm by David.] I said, "I will watch my ways, so that I do not sin with my tongue. I will keep my mouth with a bridle while the wicked is before me."
[Psalm lal David] Nga fahk, “Nga fah karinganang ma nga oru Ac tia lela tuh louk in aktafongyeyula; Nga fah tia fahk kutena ma Ke pacl mwet koluk elos muta apkuran.”
2 I was mute with silence. I held my peace, even from good. My sorrow was stirred.
Nga mislana, ac tia fahk kutena kas, Finne ke ma wo, nga tia pac kaskas. Tusruktu keok luk yokyokelik,
3 My heart was hot within me. While I meditated, the fire burned: I spoke with my tongue:
Ac fosrnga uh kutangyula. Ke nga srike in nunku ma inge, na upala fohs luk, Pwanang nga tia ku in misla in siyuk,
4 "YHWH, show me my end, what is the measure of my days. Let me know how frail I am.
“LEUM GOD, nga ac moul putaka? Nga ac misa ngac? Fahk nu sik lah moul luk uh ac safla ngac.”
5 Look, you have made my days handbreadths. My lifetime is as nothing before you. Surely every man stands as a breath." (Selah)
Kom orala moul luk arulana fototo! Lusen moul luk ye motom oana ma wangin. Pwayena lah lusen moul lun mwet se oana momong na fototo se.
6 "Surely a person goes about like a shadow. Surely he heaps up vain things of wealth, and doesn't know who shall gather them.
El sarla oana lul se. Ma nukewa el oru wangin sripa; El akpusye mwe kasrup lal, ac tia etu lah su ac mau eis.
7 And now, YHWH, what do I wait for? My hope is in you.
O Leum, mea nga ku in finsrak nu kac? Nga filiya finsrak luk in kom.
8 Deliver me from all my transgressions. Do not make me the taunt of fools.
Moliyula liki ma koluk luk nukewa, Ac nikmet lela tuh mwet lalfon in aksruksrukyeyu.
9 I was mute. I did not open my mouth, because you did it.
Nga ac mutana misla; nga ac fah tiana fahk sie kas, Mweyen kom pa oru nga keok ouinge uh.
10 Remove your scourge away from me. I am overcome by the blow of your hand.
Nikmet sifil akkeokyeyu, Tuh nga apkuran in misa ke sringsring lom!
11 When you rebuke and correct man for iniquity, You consume his wealth like a moth. Surely every man is but a breath." (Selah)
Kom sang kas in kai nu sin sie mwet ke sripen ma koluk lal, Na, oana sie watil, kom kunausla ma el lungse yohk. Aok, moul lun mwet uh oana momong na fototo se.
12 "Hear my prayer, YHWH, and give ear to my cry. Do not be silent at my tears. For I am a stranger with you, a foreigner, as all my fathers were.
O LEUM GOD, lohng pre luk, Porongo tung luk; Ase kasru lom nu sik ke pacl nga tung. Nga oana sie mwetsac su mutwata yurum ke kitin pacl na, Oana mwet matu nukewa luk somla ah.
13 Oh spare me, that I may recover strength, before I go away, and exist no more."
Fahla likiyu, nga in mau ku in engan kutu srisrik Meet liki nga som ac wanginla.
