Psalms 84
1 Lord, you who are the Commander of the armies of angels, your temple is very beautiful!
Kuom jatend wer. Kaluwore gi gitith. Zaburi mar Yawuot Kora. Mano kaka hekalu mari ber miwuoro, yaye Jehova Nyasaye Maratego!
2 I [SYN] would like to be there; Yahweh, I desire that very much [DOU]. With all of my inner being I sing joyfully to you, the all-powerful God.
Chunya gombo kendo njawni ka agombo bedo e od Jehova Nyasaye; Chunya gi denda duto wer gi mor ne Nyasaye mangima.
3 Even sparrows and swallows have built nests [near your temple, where you protect them] [DOU]; they take care of their young babies near the altars [where people offer sacrifices to] you, who are the commander of the armies of heaven, and my king and my God.
Nyaka winj oyundi oseloso kar dakne, kendo opija bende osegero ode, kama onyalo nywole nyithinde, but kendoni mar misango, yaye Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Ruodha kendo Nyasacha.
4 (Happy are/You are pleased with) those who (live/continually worship) in your temple, constantly singing to praise you.
Ogwedh joma odak e odi; mosiko ka paki. (Sela)
5 Happy are those who [know that] you are the one who causes them to be strong, those who strongly desire to (make the trip/go) to Zion [Hill].
Ogwedh joma tekregi ni kuomi jogo moketo chunygi e luwo yori maler.
6 While they travel through the [dry] Baca Valley, [you cause] it to become a place where there are springs of water, where the rains (in the autumn/before the cold season) fill the valley with pools of water.
Ka gikadho e Holo mar Baka to gimiyo obedo kama opongʼ gi sokni; kendo kodh opon bende pongʼe gi yewni.
7 [As a result, those who travel through there] become stronger/refreshed [knowing that] they will appear in your presence (on Zion [Hill]/in Jerusalem).
Tekreni osiko medore ameda, nyaka chop moro ka moro kuomgi chop Sayun e nyim Nyasaye.
8 Yahweh, commander of the armies of heaven, listen to my prayer; God, who [is worshiped by us (descendants of] Jacob/Israeli people), hear [IDM] what I am saying!
Yie iwinj lemona, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasaye Maratego; chikna iti, yaye Nyasach Jakobo. (Sela)
9 God, be kind to [IDM] our king, the one who protects us [MTY], the one whom you have chosen [MTY] [to rule us].
Tingʼ wangʼi ine okumbawa, yaye Nyasaye; rang ngʼati miwiro gi ngʼwono.
10 [For me], spending one day in your temple is better than spending 1,000 days somewhere else; [standing] at the entrance to your temple, [ready to go inside], is better than living in the tents/homes where wicked [people live].
Bet e laru mari kuom odiechiengʼ achiel ber moloyo bet kamachielo kuom higni alufu achiel; daher bedo jarit dhoot e od Nyasacha, moloyo dak e hembe joma timbegi richo.
11 Yahweh our God is [like] the sun [that shines on us] and [like] a shield [that protects us] [MET]; he is kind to [us] and honors [us]. Yahweh does not refuse to give any good thing/blessing to those who do what is right.
Nimar Jehova Nyasaye en chiengʼ kendo en okumba; Jehova Nyasaye chiwo ngʼwono gi duongʼ; ok otuon joma wuodhgi oriere tir gimoro amora maber.
12 Yahweh, commander of the armies of heaven, (happy are/you are pleased with) those who trust in you!
Yaye Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ngʼama ogeno kuomi ogwedhi.
