Psalms 32
1 Those whom God has forgiven for rebelling against him, whose stains [MET] of sin have been wiped away, are truly blessed [by God]!
Zaburi mar Daudi. Wer mower gi maskil. Ogwedh ngʼat ma kethone owene, kendo ma richone oseruchi.
2 Those whose record of their sins Yahweh has erased, those who no longer do deceitful things, are [truly] blessed [by God]!
Ogwedh ngʼatno ma Jehova Nyasaye ok kwan-ne richone, kendo ma wuondruok onge e chunye.
3 When I did not confess my sins, (my body/I) was very weak and sick, and I groaned (all day long/continually).
Kane alingʼ to chokena ne ochiyore, kane achur odiechiengʼ duto ma ok aywe.
4 Day and night, [Yahweh], you [SYN] punished me severely. My strength drained away like [water that] ([evaporates/dries up]) on a hot summer [day].
Nikech odiechiengʼ gotieno lweti ne pek kuoma; tekrena ne oduono mana kaka timore e liet mar ndalo oro. (Sela)
5 [Then/Finally] I admitted/confessed my sins to you; I stopped trying to hide them. (Think about that!) I said [to myself], “I will confess to Yahweh the wrong things that I have done.” And [when I confessed them], you forgave me, so now I (am no longer guilty/will no longer be punished) for my sins.
Eka ne ahulo richona kendo ne ok apando timbena mag ketho. Ne awacho niya, “Abiro hulo ketho chik maga ne Jehova Nyasaye.” Omiyo ne iweyona ketho mane richona okelo. (Sela)
6 Therefore, the people who are godly should pray to you [when they] (realize that they have sinned/have difficulties). If they pray to you, [difficulties] [MET] will not overwhelm them [like] a great flood.
Kuom mano, owinjore ji duto moluoro Nyasaye olami kapod inyalo yudi; adier ka pige madongo otugore, to ok gibi chopo ire,
7 You are [like] a place where I can hide [from my enemies] [MET], you protect me from troubles, and you (enable me/[put people around me who will enable me]) to shout, praising you for saving me [from my enemies].
In e kar pondona; ibiro rita e chandruok, kendo ibiro lwora gi wende mag loch. (Sela)
8 [Yahweh says], “I will teach you about how you should conduct your life. I will instruct you and watch over you.
Abiro chiki kendo abiro puonji e yo monego ilu; adier abiro ngʼadoni rieko kendo abiro rangi maber.
9 Do not be stupid like horses and mules that do not have understanding; they need (bits/pieces of metal put in their mouths) and (bridles/ropes fastened to their head) so they will go in the direction you want them to go.”
Kik ichal gi farese kata gi punda, maonge gi rieko, manyaka chiki mana ka otwe dhoge kendo iywayo gi kamba, nono to ok gibi buti.
10 Wicked people will have many [troubles that will make them] sad, but those who trust in Yahweh will experience him faithfully loving them all the time.
Lit mochomo joma timbegi richo ngʼeny, to (hera) ma ok rum mar Jehova Nyasaye, olworo ngʼat mogeno kuome.
11 [So, all] you righteous people, rejoice about what Yahweh [has done for you]; you whose (inner beings/lives) are pure, be glad and shout joyfully!
Beduru moil kuom Jehova Nyasaye, kendo beduru mamor, un joma kare; weruru, un duto ma urieru tir gie chunyu!
