< Psalms 40 >

1 I waited patiently for Yahweh [to help me], and he listened to me [DOU] when I called out to him.
Kuom jatend wer. Zaburi mar Daudi. Ne arito Jehova Nyasaye ka ahora mos; ne odwogo ira mi owinjo ywakna.
2 [When I had many troubles, it was as though] I was in a deep pit. But he lifted me up out of the mud and slime of that pit; he set my feet on a [solid] rock, and enabled me to walk (safely/without falling).
Ne oywaya oko e bur motimo otodo, ne ogola e chwodho gi thidhna. Ne oketo tiendena e lwanda kendo nomiya kama otegno mondo achungie.
3 He has given me a new song to sing, a song to praise him who is our God. Many people will find out [what he has done for me], and they will revere and trust him.
Ne oketo wer manyien e dhoga, en wer mipakogo Nyasachwa. Ji mangʼeny biro neno mi gibed maluor kendo gibiro keto genogi kuom Jehova Nyasaye.
4 Yahweh is pleased with those who trust him, those who do not trust in idols or join with those who worship those false gods.
Ngʼat moketo Jehova Nyasaye kaka kar geno mare en ngʼat mogwedhi, ngʼat ma ok many kony kuom josunga, bende ok omany kony kuom joma lokore mondo olam nyiseche mag miriambo.
5 O Yahweh, my God, you have done many wonderful things! No one can list all the wonderful things that you have planned for us. If I tried to tell [others] about all those wonderful things, I would not be able to, because there would be too many for me to mention.
Ranyisi misetimo thoth, yaye Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasacha. Gigo mane ichanonwa onge ngʼama nyalo kwanoni; ka dine bed ni wanyalo wuoyo kuomgi; to dine gibedo mangʼeny ma ok wanyal wacho.
6 Various kinds of sacrifices and other offerings are not the [only] things that delight you. You have enabled me to understand that very well [IDM]. [Animals] burned [on the altar] and [other] offerings are not all that you require [for sins to be forgiven].
Misengini kod chiwo ok ema ne idwaro to ita ema iseyawo; misengini miwangʼo pep kod chiwo mag golo richo ne ok idwaro.
7 So I said [to you], “Yahweh, here I am, [to do] the things that have been written in the scroll [that contains your laws], things that you want me [to do].”
Eka nawacho niya, “Eri an ka, asebiro mana kaka ondiki kuoma e Muma.
8 O my God, I delight to do what you desire; I [keep] your laws within my inner being.
Chunya dwaro timo dwaroni, yaye Nyasacha; chikni ni ei chunya.”
9 Whenever all [your people] are gathered, I have told them about how you save us. Yahweh, you know that I have not been afraid to tell that to them.
Alando tim makare e chokruok maduongʼ; ok aumo dhoga, mana kaka ingʼeyo, yaye Jehova Nyasaye.
10 And I have not kept to myself the news that you always act justly/fairly; when many of your people have gathered together [to worship you in the temple], I have told them that you are faithful to us and save us. I have (not concealed/openly told people) that you faithfully love us and act loyally toward us.
Ok apando timni makare e chunya; to awuoyo kuom adierani gi warruokni. Ok apando herani gi adierani ni chokruok maduongʼ.
11 Yahweh, do not stop being merciful to me. Because you faithfully love [me] [PRS] and are loyal [to me], always protect me.
Kik itamri kecha, yaye Jehova Nyasaye; mad herani gi adierani osik ka rita.
12 I have many troubles; [so many that] I cannot count them. My sins are like a flood that has covered me [PRS, MET]; [they are so many that] I cannot find my way. The sins that I have committed are more than the hairs on my head. I am very discouraged.
Nikech chandruok mokalo akwana olwora; richona osejuka kendo ok anyal neno. Gingʼeny moloyo yie wiya, kendo chunya onyosore gie iya.
13 O Yahweh, please save me! Come quickly to help me!
Bed mamor, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, mondo iresa. Bi piyo, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, mondo ikonya.
14 Humble those who are happy about my troubles, and cause them to be disgraced and ashamed. Chase away those who are trying to get rid of me.
Mad ji duto madwaro ketho ngimana wigi kuodi kendo pachgi olal; mad ji duto ma chunygi gombona tho oriemb kadok gi wich okuot.
15 I hope/desire that those who make fun of me will be dismayed when you defeat them.
Mad joma nyiera niya, “Haa! Haa!” Ngʼengʼ ka gineno wichkuot.
16 But I hope that all those who go to [worship] you will be very joyful [DOU]. I want those who love you because you saved them to shout repeatedly, “Yahweh is great!”
To mad ji duto madwari bed moil kendo mamor kuomi; mad joma ohero warruok mari osik kawacho niya, “Jehova Nyasaye mondo oyud duongʼ!”
17 As for me, I am poor and needy [DOU]; but [I know that] Yahweh has not forgotten me. O my God, you are the one who saves and helps me, so please come quickly [and help me!]
Anto adhier kendo achando, mad Ruoth Nyasaye parae. In e jakonyna kendo jawarna; in e Nyasacha, kik ideki.
