Psalms 54

1 “For the leader of the music. To be sung on stringed instruments A psalm of David, when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, Doth not David hide himself with us?” Save me, O God! by thy name, And by thy strength defend my cause!

[Psalm lal David tukun mwet tuku Ziph me nu yorol Saul a fahk nu sel la David el wikwik oan in acn selos.] O God, moliyula ke ku lom; Aksukosokyeyu ke ku lulap lom!

2 O God! hear my prayer, Give ear to the words of my mouth!

Lohng pre luk, O God; Porongo kas luk.

3 For enemies have risen up against me, And oppressors seek my life; They have not set God before their eyes. (Pause)

Mwet inse fulat elos tuku in lainyu, Ac mwet sulallal elos srike in uniyuwi — Mwet su tia akfulatye God.

4 Behold! God is my helper; The Lord is the support of my life.

Tusruk God El mwet kasru luk. Leum El mwe loango luk.

5 He will repay evil to my enemies; For thy truth's sake, O God! cut them off!

Lela tuh God Elan lain mwet lokoalok luk ke ma koluk lalos sifacna. El ac fah kunauselosla mweyen El oaru.

6 With a willing heart will I sacrifice to thee; I will praise thy name, O LORD! for it is good;

Nga ac fah engan in oru mwe kisa nu sum, O LEUM GOD; Nga fah sot kulo nu sum Mweyen kom wo.

7 For thou hast delivered me from all trouble, So that my eye hath looked with joy upon my enemies!

Tuh kom moliyula liki ongoiya luk nukewa, Ac nga liye ke mwet lokoalok luk elos kutangyukla.
