< Psalms 52 >

1 You people [think that you] are strong and brag about the sins that you have committed, while you plan to harm godly people.
[Psalm lal David, ma Simla tukun Doeg, Mwet Edom, el som nu yorol Saul ac Fahk nu sel lah David el Som tari nu lohm sel Ahimelech.] O mwet fulat se, efu kom ku konkin ke ma koluk lom? Lungkulang lun God uh oan nwe tok.
2 All during the day you plan to get rid of [others]; what you say [MTY] [injures others] like a sharp razor [SIM], and you are [always] deceiving [others].
Kom suk inkanek in akkolukye mwet saya. Loum oana sie resa kosroh. Kom kinauk kikiap in pacl nukewa.
3 You like [doing what is] evil more than you like doing what is good, and you like telling lies more than you like telling the truth.
Kom lungse ma koluk yohk liki ma wo, Ac ma sutuu yohk liki ma pwaye.
4 You who say things [MTY] to deceive people, you like to say (things that hurt people/cruel things)!
Kom lungsena akngalye mwet ke kas lom, kom mwet kikiap!
5 But God will get rid of you forever; he will grab you and drag you from your home and take you away from this world where people are alive.
Ke ma inge God El ac fah kunauskomla nwe tok; El ac fah sruokkomi ac tulakinkomla liki lohm sum; El ac fah moklekomla liki facl sin mwet moul.
6 When righteous [people] see that, they will be awestruck, and they will laugh at [what happened to] you, and say,
Ke mwet suwoswos elos ac liye ma inge elos ac fah sangeng; Na elos ac fah isrun kom ac fahk,
7 “Look [what happened to] the man who would not ask God to protect him; he trusted that his great wealth [would save him]; he trusted in the money that he got by wickedly taking it from others!”
“Liye, pa inge sie mwet su tia suk kasru sin God, A el lulalfongi na ke mwe kasrup yohk lal sifacna, Ac suk moul misla nu sel ke inkanek in sulallal.”
8 But I am [secure/safe because I worship] in God’s temple; I am like a [strong] green olive tree. I trust in God, who faithfully loves us forever.
A funu nga, nga oana soko sak olive su kapak in lohm sin God; Nga ac lulalfongi ke lungse kawil lal nwe tok.
9 God, I will always thank you for the things that you have done. As I stand before godly [people], I will proclaim that you are good (OR, the many good [MTY] [things you have done for us]).
Nga ac fah kulo nu sum pacl nukewa, O God, ke orekma lom; Ye mutun mwet lom Nga ac fah fahkak tuh kom wo.
