Psalms 55
1 To the Chief Musician: with stringed Instruments. A Psalm of Instruction, of David. Give ear, O God, to my prayer, And do not hide thyself from my supplication:
[Psalm lal David] Lohng pre luk, O God; Nikmet forla liki mwe siyuk luk!
2 Attend unto me, and answer me, I may ramble in my complaining, And be driven to and fro—
Porongeyu ac topukyu, Tuh nga arulana totola ke fosrnga luk.
3 Because of the noise of the enemy, By reason of the oppression of the lawless one, For they would let trouble drop upon me, And, in anger, would they entrap me.
Nga arulana sangeng ke kas in aksangeng lun mwet lokoalok luk; Nga keok ke mwet koluk uh akfosrngayeyu. Elos use mwe ongoiya nu fuk; Elos srungayu ac kasrkusrak sik.
4 My heart, would writhe within me, And, the terrors of Death, have fallen upon me:
Nga arulana sangeng, Ac mwe fosrnga lun misa toanyuwi.
5 Fear and trembling, would enter me, And there would have overwhelmed me—a horror!
Nga arulana sangeng ac rarrar; Nga tuninfong na pwaye.
6 Then I said—Oh that there were given me a pinion, like a dove, I would fly away and be at rest:
Nga ke tuh in oasr posohksok keik oana wule. Nga lukun sohkla ac suk nien mongla.
7 Lo! I would take a distant flight, I would tarry in the wilderness. (Selah)
Nga lukun sohkla nu yen loesla Ac oru nien muta luk yen mwesis.
8 I would hasten mine escape, From rushing wind, from storm.
Nga lukun sulaklak ac konauk nien wikla luk Liki eng upa ac paka.
9 Confuse, O My Lord, divide their speech, For I have seen violence and contention in the city;
O Leum, akfohsyauk sramsram lun mwet lokoalok luk! Nga liye mwet uh oru ma sulallal ac alein yohk in siti uh —
10 Day and night, they go round her, upon her walls, And, trouble and misery, are in her midst;
Raunela ke len ac fong. Ma koluk lulap ac mwe lokoalok oasr yen nukewa in siti sac.
11 Engulfing ruin, is in her midst, And there depart not from her broadway, oppression and deceit.
Oasr ma musalla in acn nukewa; Inkanek uh sessesla ke mwe akkeok ac ma kikiap.
12 For it is, not an enemy, that reproacheth me, Or I could bear it, —Not one that hath hated me, who, against me, hath magnified himself, Or I might hide myself from him;
Fin mwet lokoalok se luk pa aksruksrukyeyu, Nga ac ku in muteng; Fin mwet lainyu se pa tungak nu sik uh, Nga ac ku in wikla lukel.
13 But it is, thou, a man esteemed as mine equal, mine associate, and mine acquaintance;
Tuh pa kom pa oru — mwet na wiuk se, Mwet na nga etu se, ac kawuk na wowo luk.
14 So that together have we been wont to find sweetness in counsel, In the house of God, used we to walk in the throng.
Kut arulana sukosok in sramsram nu sin sie sin sie Ac kut tukeni alu in Tempul.
15 Desolations on them! Let them go down into hades alive, For, wicked doings, are at home within them. (Sheol h7585)
Finsrak tuh mwet lokoalok luk in misa meet liki pacl fal lalos; Finsrak elos in moulna som nu infulan misa! Tuh ma koluk oasr in lohm selos ac insialos. (Sheol h7585)
16 I, unto God, will cry, —And, Yahweh, will save me.
A funu nga, nga pang nu sin LEUM GOD in suk kasru, Ac El ac fah moliyula.
17 At evening and morning and high noon, have I been wont to lament and complain, And he hath heard my voice!
Ke lotutang, infulwen len, ac eku Pusren torkaskas ac sasao luk sowak nu yorol Ac El ac lohng pusrek.
18 He hath completely redeemed my soul, out of the attack upon me, For, in multitudes, were they [in conflict] with me.
El ac fah moliyula ac folokinyume Liki mweun su nga oasr kac Ke nga lain mwet lokoalok puspis luk.
19 GOD will hear, Yea He will humble them who aforetime sat [enthroned]. (Selah) With whom are no changings, Neither have they revered God.
God, su nuna leum ke mutawauk me, El ac fah lohngyu ac kutangla mwet lokoalok luk, Mweyen elos srangesr ekulla ouiyen moul lalos, Ac elos tia sangeng sel.
20 He hath thrust forth his hands, against them he was wont to salute, he hath violated his covenant;
Mwet se ma kasreyu meet, el forla lain mwet kawuk lal; Ac el kunausla wulela lal.
21 Smoother than curds, were [the words of] his mouth, But, war, was [in] his heart, —Softer his words than oil, Yet, they, were drawn swords!
Meet, sramsram lal fwel oana kiris, Tusruktu yohk srunga insial; Kas lal musresre oana kaki in akmusra, Tusruktu fakfuk oana cutlass.
22 Cast upon Yahweh thy lot, and, he, will sustain thee: He will not suffer, to times age-abiding, the righteous one to be shaken.
Filiya mwe fosrnga lom yurin LEUM GOD, Ac El ac fah loangekom; Tuh El tiana lela mwet suwoswos in kutangyukla.
23 But, thou, O God, wilt bring them down to the pit of destruction, Men of bloodshed and deceit, shall not live out half their days; But, I, will trust in thee.
A kom, O God, fah use mwet akmas ac mwet kikiap nu inkulyuk lalos Meet liki na elos sun infulwen moul lalos. A funu nga, nga ac lulalfongi kom na.
