Psalms 90
1 Lord, you have always (been [like] a home for us/protected us) [MET].
Lamo mar Musa ngʼat Nyasaye. Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, isebedo kar dak marwa nyaka nene e tienge duto.
2 Before you created the mountains, before you formed the earth and everything that is in it, you were eternally God, and you will be God forever.
Kane pok gode obetie kata kane pok ichweyo piny gi ji modak e iye, to isebedo ka in Nyasaye nyaka nene kendo manyaka chiengʼ.
3 [When people die], you cause their corpses to become soil again; you change their corpses to become dirt like [the first man] was created from.
Idwoko dhano e lowo, kiwacho niya, “Doguru e lowo un koth dhano.”
4 When you (consider/think about) time, 1,000 years are [as short as] [SIM] one day which passes; [you consider that] [HYP] they are as short as a few hours in the night.
Nimar higni alufu achiel e nyimi chalo gi odiechiengʼ manyoro mosekalo, kata gi sa mar otieno.
5 You cause people suddenly to die [MET]; they [live only a short time], like a dream lasts only a short time. They are like grass/weeds [SIM] that grow up.
Iywoyo dhano ilalgo nono ka nindo mar tho terogi; gichalo gi lum mangʼich mar okinyi,
6 In the morning [DOU] the grass sprouts and grows well, but in the evening it dries up and (completely withers/dies).
ma kata obedo ni loth ka ngʼich gokinyi to godhiambo to ner kendo two.
7 [Similarly], [because of the sins that we have committed], you become angry with us; you terrify us and then you destroy us.
Mirimbi tiekowa kendo kecho mikechogo kodwa bwogowa.
8 [It is as though] you place our sins in front of you, you spread out even our secret sins where you can see them.
Iseketo richowa e nyimi, ee, richowa ma watimo lingʼ-lingʼ ineno seche duto.
9 Because you are angry with us, you cause our lives to end; the years that we live pass as quickly as a sigh does.
Ndalowa kadho piyo nikech mirimbi; hikwa rumo piyo gi chir.
10 People live for only 70 years; but if they are strong, some of them live for 80 years. But even during good years we have much pain and troubles; our lives soon end, and we die [EUP].
Ndalowa en piero abiriyo kata piero aboro, ka ringrewa otegno; to kata kamano ndalogo duto opongʼ gi chandruok kod kuyo, nimar gikalo piyo, kendo gilal nono.
11 No one [RHQ] has fully experienced the powerful things you can do to them when you are angry with them, and people are not afraid that you will greatly punish them because of your being angry with them.
En ngʼa mongʼeyo teko mar mirimbi? Nimar gero mari nigi teko machalo gi teko ma luori kelo.
12 So teach/help us to realize that we live for only a short time in order that we may [use our time] wisely.
Omiyo puonjwa kwano ndalowa kare, mondo wabed gi chuny mariek.
13 Yahweh, how long [will you be angry with us]? Pity us who serve you.
Ibiro siko kikecho nyaka karangʼo, yaye Jehova Nyasaye? Lokri, kech jatichni.
14 Each morning show us that your faithfully loving us is enough for us in order that we may shout joyfully and be happy for the rest of our lives.
Romwa gokinyi gi herani ma ok rem, mondo wawer gi ilo kendo wabed mamor ndalowa duto.
15 Cause us to now be as happy for as many years as you (afflicted us/caused us to be sad) and we experienced troubles.
Mi wabed mamor amingʼa mana kaka isemiyo waneno malit, marom gi higni ma wasenene chandruok.
16 Enable us to see the [great] things that you do and enable our descendants to [also] see your glorious power.
Mad tijeni nere gi jotichni, mad duongʼni nyisre ne nyithindi.
17 Lord, our God, give us your blessings and enable us to be successful; yes, cause us to be successful in [everything] that we do [DOU]!
Mad ngʼwono mar Ruoth Nyasachwa obed kodwa; yie igurnwa tich mar lwetwa, ee gurnwa tich mar lwetwa.
