Psalms 132
1 Yahweh, do not forget [King] David and all the hardships/troubles he endured!
Wer ma ji wero kadhi e hekalu. Parie Daudi, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, parie Daudi gi chandruok duto moseneno.
2 He made a solemn promise to you, the mighty God whom [our ancestor] Jacob [worshiped].
Ne okwongʼore kane osingore ne Jehova Nyasaye, kendo ne okwongʼore ne Nyasaye Maratego mar Jakobo kama:
3 He said, “I will not go home, I will not [rest] on my bed,
“Ok anadonji e oda, kata dhi e kitandana,
4 I will not sleep at all
Ok anayie nindo tera, kata ayula wangʼ lo wengena,
5 until I build a place for Yahweh, a home for the mighty God whom Jacob [worshiped].”
kapok aloso ne Jehova Nyasaye kare, kapok ayudo ne Nyasaye Maratego mar Jakobo kar dak.”
6 In Bethlehem we heard news about the sacred chest. We [went and] found it in the fields of Jearim [city, and we took it to Jerusalem].
Ne wawinjo wachno Efratha, ee, ne wayude e puothe mag Jaar:
7 [Later we said], “Let’s go to the temple of Yahweh [in Jerusalem]; let’s worship [there] in front of the throne [where he sits].”
“Wadhiuru kare modakie; wadhiuru mondo walame e nyim kom duongʼne, ka wawacho niya,
8 Yahweh, come to the place where you live eternally, to the place where your sacred chest is, to that place that shows that you are very powerful.
‘Aa malo, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, aa malo ibi kari mar yweyo, in kaachiel gi Sandug Muma ma en kido mar tekoni.
9 I want/desire that the righteous behavior of your priests [will always be evident], [just like the beautiful] robes that they wear [MET], and that your people will [always] shout joyfully.
Mad jodolo magi rwakre gi tim makare, kendo mad jogi maler wer gi mor.’”
10 You chose David to serve you [as king of Israel]; do not reject/abandon him!
Nikech Daudi jatichni, kik idagi ngʼati miseyiero.
11 Yahweh, you made a solemn promise to David, a promise that you will not break. You said, “I will cause your descendants to rule [MTY] as kings like you.
Jehova Nyasaye nokwongʼore kendo osingore ne Daudi, kendo ne en kwongʼruok ma ok enoloki ngangʼ; nokwongʼorene niya, “Abiro keto achiel kuom kothi e lochni,
12 If they keep my agreement with them and obey [all] the commands that I will give them, the line of kings descended from you will never end.”
ka yawuoti orito singruokna kod chike ma apuonjogi, eka yawuotgi nobedi, e lochni nyaka chiengʼ kendo nyaka chiengʼ.”
13 Yahweh has chosen Jerusalem; he has wanted to make that city his home;
Nimar Jehova Nyasaye oseyiero Sayun, osehere kaka kar dakne, osewacho ni,
14 he said, “This is the city where I will live forever [DOU]; this is the place where I wanted to stay.
Ma e kar yweyona mochwere manyaka chiengʼ, kae ema abiro betie kom lochna, nimar asehere,
15 I will give to the people of Jerusalem all that they need; I will give [enough] food [even] to satisfy the poor people there.
abiro gwedhe gi gik moko mogundho, kendo joge modhier abiro romo gi chiemo.
16 I will cause the priests [to behave in a manner worthy of] being ones whom I have saved; [that will be as evident as the beautiful] robes that they wear [MET]; and all my people who live there will shout joyfully.
Abiro rwako jodolo mage gi warruok kendo jomaler modak e iye biro siko ka wero wende mor.
17 There [in Jerusalem] I will cause one of David’s descendants [MET] to become a great king; he also will be my chosen king, and he will be [like a bright] lamp [MET] [that shines continually].
“Ka eni ema abiro miyo tung moro donge ne Daudi kendo abiro chungo taya ne ngʼata mowir.
18 I will [defeat his] enemies and cause them to be very ashamed/disgraced; but the crown that my king wears will [always] shine.”
Abiro bako wasike gi wichkuot, to en osimbo manie wiye biro medo rieny.”
