Psalms 6

1 To the Overseer with stringed instruments, on the octave. — A Psalm of David. O Jehovah, in Thine anger reprove me not, Nor in Thy fury chastise me.

Kuom jatend wer. Miwero gi gig wer man-gi tondegi. Kaluwore gi sheminith. Zaburi Mar Daudi. Kik ikwera, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, ka iyi owangʼ kata kum kik ikuma ka mirima omaki.

2 Favour me, O Jehovah, for I [am] weak, Heal me, O Jehovah, For troubled have been my bones,

Kecha, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, nikech aol; changa, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, nikech chokena rama malit.

3 And my soul hath been troubled greatly, And Thou, O Jehovah, till when?

Chunya winjo malit. Nyaka karangʼo, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, nyaka karangʼo?

4 Turn back, O Jehovah, draw out my soul, Save me for Thy kindness' sake.

Lokri, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, mondo iresa; resa nikech herani ma ok rum.

5 For there is not in death Thy memorial, In Sheol, who doth give thanks to Thee? (Sheol h7585)

Onge ngʼama nyalo pari ka osetho. En ngʼa madi paki gi ei liel? (Sheol h7585)

6 I have been weary with my sighing, I meditate through all the night [on] my bed, With my tear my couch I waste.

Chur ma achurgo ojonya otieno duto abudo kitandana gi ywak, kendo pi wangʼa olwoko piendena.

7 Old from provocation is mine eye, It is old because of all mine adversaries,

Wengena ool nikech lit ma an-go; ok ginen maber nikech wasika duto.

8 Turn from me all ye workers of iniquity, For Jehovah heard the voice of my weeping,

Ayiuru buta, un duto ji matimo richo, nikech Jehova Nyasaye osewinjo ywakna.

9 Jehovah hath heard my supplication, Jehovah my prayer receiveth.

Jehova Nyasaye osewinjo ywak mar kwayo kech; Jehova Nyasaye orwako lamo mara.

10 Ashamed and troubled greatly are all mine enemies, They turn back — ashamed [in] a moment!

Wasika duto wigi biro kuot kendo gibiro hum nono; gibiro dok chien apoya nono gi wichkuot.
