Psalms 28

1 David’s. Unto thee, O Yahweh, do I cry, O my Rock! do not turn in silence from me, —lest, if thou turn from me in silence, I be like them who go down into the pit.

[Psalm lal David] O LEUM GOD su langoeyu, nga pang nu sum. Lohng tung luk! Kom fin tia topukyu, Nga ac fah welulos su tufokla nu infulan misa.

2 Hear the voice of my supplication, when I cry to thee for help, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy shrine.

Lohngyu ke nga pang in suk kasru sum, Ke nga asroeak pouk nu ke Tempul mutal sum.

3 Do not drag me away—with the lawless, or with the workers of iniquity, —who speak peaceably with their neighbours, but, wrong, is in their heart.

Nikmet nununkeyu yurin mwet koluk, Yurin mwet su oru ma koluk — Mwet su kulang na likin pusraclos, A insialos sessesla ke srunga.

4 Give them, according to their deed, and, according to the wrong of their practices, —According to the work of their own hands, give thou unto them, Bring back their own dealing to themselves.

Sang kai nu selos ke orekma koluk lalos, Ke ma koluk elos orala. Kaelos ke ma nukewa elos oru. Sang nu selos topken orekma koluk lalos!

5 Because they heed not The Deeds of Yahweh, or the Work of his hands, he will pull them down, and not build them.

Elos tiana lohang nu ke ma LEUM GOD El oru Ku nu ke orekma lun paol. Ke ma inge El ac fah kaelos Ac kunauselosla nwe tok.

6 Blessed be Yahweh, Because he hath heard the voice of my supplication.

Kaksakin LEUM GOD, Tuh El lohng pusren kwafe luk.

7 Yahweh, is my strength and my shield, In him, hath trusted my heart, and I have found help, —Therefore hath my heart danced for joy, and, with my song, do I praise him.

LEUM GOD El karinginyu ac kasreyu; Nga lulalfongi in El. El kasreyu ac akenganyeyu; Nga kaksakunul ke pusren on in engan.

8 Yahweh, is strength to his people, —And, the all-saving refuge of his Anointed One, is he!

LEUM GOD El karingin mwet lal; El kasru ac molela tokosra su El sulela.

9 Oh save thy people, and bless thine inheritance, Tend them also, and carry them, Unto times age-abiding.

LEUM GOD, molela mwet lom, Ac akinsewowoyalos su ma lom. Kom in mwet shepherd lalos, Ac karinganulos nwe tok ma pahtpat.
