Psalms 54

1 To the Overseer with stringed instruments. — An instruction, by David, in the coming in of the Ziphim, and they say to Saul, 'Is not David hiding himself with us?' O God, by Thy name save me, and by Thy might judge me.

[Psalm lal David tukun mwet tuku Ziph me nu yorol Saul a fahk nu sel la David el wikwik oan in acn selos.] O God, moliyula ke ku lom; Aksukosokyeyu ke ku lulap lom!

2 O God, hear my prayer, Give ear to the sayings of my mouth,

Lohng pre luk, O God; Porongo kas luk.

3 For strangers have risen up against me And terrible ones have sought my soul, They have not set God before them. (Selah)

Mwet inse fulat elos tuku in lainyu, Ac mwet sulallal elos srike in uniyuwi — Mwet su tia akfulatye God.

4 Lo, God [is] a helper to me, The Lord [is] with those supporting my soul,

Tusruk God El mwet kasru luk. Leum El mwe loango luk.

5 Turn back doth the evil thing to mine enemies, In Thy truth cut them off.

Lela tuh God Elan lain mwet lokoalok luk ke ma koluk lalos sifacna. El ac fah kunauselosla mweyen El oaru.

6 With a free will-offering I sacrifice to Thee, I thank Thy name, O Jehovah, for [it is] good,

Nga ac fah engan in oru mwe kisa nu sum, O LEUM GOD; Nga fah sot kulo nu sum Mweyen kom wo.

7 For, from all adversity He delivered me, And on mine enemies hath mine eye looked!

Tuh kom moliyula liki ongoiya luk nukewa, Ac nga liye ke mwet lokoalok luk elos kutangyukla.
