< Psalms 3 >
1 A Psalm by David, when he fled from Absalom his son. LORD, how my adversaries have increased! Many are those who rise up against me.
[Psalm lal David, ke el Kaingkunul Absalom, Wen natul] O LEUM GOD, puslana mwet lokoalok luk, Pusenina mwet tuyak lainyu!
2 Many there are who say of my soul, “There is no help for him in God.” (Selah)
Elos kaskas keik ac fahk, “God El ac tia kasrel.”
3 But you, LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, and the one who lifts up my head.
Tusruktu, O LEUM GOD, kom mwe loang luk liki ongoiya in pacl e nukewa. Kom ase nu sik kutangla, Ac akpulaikyeyu.
4 I cry to the LORD with my voice, and he answers me out of his holy hill. (Selah)
Nga pang nu sin LEUM GOD tuh elan kasreyu, Ac El topukyu liki eol mutal sel.
5 I laid myself down and slept. I awakened, for the LORD sustains me.
Nga ona ac motulla, Ac LEUM GOD El karinginyu nwe ke nga ngutalik.
6 I will not be afraid of tens of thousands of people who have set themselves against me on every side.
Nga tia sangeng sin tausin mwet lokoalok Su rauniyula yen nukewa.
7 Arise, LORD! Save me, my God! For you have struck all of my enemies on the cheek bone. You have broken the teeth of the wicked.
Fahsru, LEUM GOD! Moliyula, God luk! Kom kai mwet lokoalok luk nukewa Ac akmunasyalos, na wangin ku lalos in aklokoalokyeyu.
8 Salvation belongs to the LORD. May your blessing be on your people. (Selah)
Kutangla tuku sin LEUM GOD— Lela tuh Elan akinsewowoye mwet lal.
