< Psalms 79 >

1 [A Psalm by Asaph.] God, the nations have come into your inheritance. They have defiled your holy temple. They have laid Jerusalem in heaps.
[Psalm lal Asaph] O God, mwet pegan elos tuku utyak nu in acn sum. Elos akfohkfokye Tempul mutal lom, Ac arulana kunausla acn Jerusalem.
2 They have given the dead bodies of your servants to be food for the birds of the sky, the flesh of your faithful to the animals of the earth.
Elos filiya mano misa lun mwet lom tuh won vulture in kangla, Ac monin mwet kulansap lom tuh in mwe mongo nun kosro lemnak.
3 Their blood they have shed like water around Jerusalem. There was no one to bury them.
Elos okoalik srahn mwet lom oana kof; Srah soror oana kof in acn Jerusalem nufon, Ac wangin mwet lula we in puknelosi.
4 We have become objects of contempt to our neighbors, mocked and ridiculed by those who are around us.
Mutunfacl nukewa su raunikutla elos kaskas koluk kacsr; Elos isrun kut ac aksruksruki kut.
5 How long, YHWH? Will you be angry forever? Will your jealousy burn like fire?
LEUM GOD, ya kom ac mulat sesr nwe tok? Ya kasrkusrak lom ac fah srakna firir oana e?
6 Pour out your wrath on the nations that do not know you; on the kingdoms that do not call on your name;
Furokla kasrkusrak lom nu fin mutunfacl saya su tia etekom, Nu faclos su tia pre nu sum.
7 For they have devoured Jacob, and destroyed his homeland.
Tuh elos onela mwet lom Ac kunausla facl sum.
8 Do not hold the iniquities of our forefathers against us. Let your tender mercies speedily meet us, for we are in desperate need.
Nikmet akkeokye kut ke sripen ma koluk lun mwet matu lasr. Pakomutasr inge. Wanginla na pwaye finsrak lasr.
9 Help us, God of our salvation, for the glory of your name. Deliver us, and forgive our sins, for your name's sake.
Kasrekut, O God, ac molikutla. Tulekutla ac nunak munas ke ma koluk lasr Fal nu ke Inem.
10 Why should the nations say, "Where is their God?" Let it be known among the nations, before our eyes, that vengeance for your servants' blood is being poured out.
Efu ku mutunfacl saya in siyuk sesr, “Ku pia God lowos an?” Lela kut in liye foloksak lom nu sin mutunfacl Su aksororye srahn mwet kulansap lom.
11 Let the sighing of the prisoner come before you. According to the greatness of your power, free those who are sentenced to death.
Lohng pusren sasao lun mwet kapir, Ac ke ku lulap lom, aksukosokyalosla su wotyang nu ke misa.
12 Pay back to our neighbors seven times into their lap the insults with which they have insulted you, YHWH.
O Leum, oru foloksak lom nu sin mutunfacl ingan pacl itkosr Ke kas in akkoluk su elos fahk keim uh.
13 So we, your people and sheep of your pasture, will give you thanks forever. We will praise you forever, to all generations.
Na kut, mwet lom, su sheep lun un kosro nutum, Fah sot kulo nu sum ma pahtpat, Ac kaksakin kom nwe tok.
