Psalms 142

1 An Instructive Psalm of David. When he was in the Cave. A Prayer. With my voice—to Yahweh, make I outcry, With my voice—to Yahweh, make I supplication:

[Psalm lal David ke el muta in luf sac] Nga pang nu sin LEUM GOD Elan kasreyu; Aok, nga kwafe nu sel.

2 I pour out before him my complaint, My distress—before him, I tell.

Nga use mwe torkaskas luk nukewa nu yorol, Nga fahkak ongoiya nukewa luk nu sel.

3 When my spirit fainted concerning myself, then, thou, didst take note of my path, —In the course which I was about to take, they had hidden a snare for me.

Ke nga apkuran in fuhleak, El etu lah mea fal nga in oru. Ke inkanek su nga fahsr kac Mwet lokoalok luk elos okanla mwe kwasrip in sruokyuwi.

4 Look to the right hand and see, that there is none that, for me, hath regard, —Escape is lost to me, There is no one to care for my life.

Ke nga ngetnget nu siskuk, Nga liye tuh wanginna mwet in kasreyu. Wangin mwet in karinginyu, Wanginna mwet nunku keik.

5 I have made outcry unto thee, O Yahweh, —I have said, Thou, art my refuge, my portion, in the land of the living.

LEUM GOD, nga pang nu sum tuh kom in kasreyu; Kom nien molela luk, LEUM GOD. Kom mukena pa nga enenu in moul se inge.

6 Attend thou unto my loud cry, for I am brought very low, —Rescue me from my pursuers, for they are stronger than I.

Porongo ke nga pang, Tuh nga arulana muta in ongoiya. Moliyula liki mwet lokoalok luk; Elos arulana ku likiyu.

7 O bring forth, out of prison, my soul, That I may give thanks unto thy Name, —About me, let the righteous gather round, for thou wilt deal bountifully with me.

Aksukosokyeyu liki mwe keok luk, Na nga fah kaksakin kom in walil lun mwet lom Ke sripen orekma wo lom nu sik.
