Psalm 138

1 [Psalm lal David] Nga sot kulo nu sum, LEUM GOD, ke insiuk nufon, Nga on kaksakin kom ye mutun god uh.

Of David. I will thank you, O Lord, with all my heart: in the sight of the gods I will sing your praise,

2 Nga forla nu ke Tempul mutal sum, Ac pasrla, ac kaksakin Inem Ke sripen lungse kawil ac pwaye lom, Oayapa ke kom akkalemye lah Inem, ac sap lom, fulat liki ma nukewa.

and prostrate before your holy temple, will praise your name for your constant love, for you have exulted your promise above all.

3 Kom topukyu ke nga tuh pang nu sum; Ke ku lom, kom tuh akkeyeyu.

When I called you, you answered; you gave me strength, you inspired me.

4 Tokosra nukewa fin faclu elos fah kaksakin kom, LEUM GOD, Mweyen elos lohng wulela lom.

All the kings of the earth shall praise you, O Lord, when they shall have heard the words you have uttered;

5 Elos ac fah onkakin orekma lom Ac ke wolana yohk lom.

and they shall sing of the ways of the Lord, and tell of the Lord’s transcendent glory.

6 Kom finne muta yen fulat, A kom nunku kaclos su pusisel, Ac kom suiya mwet filang yen loesla me.

For, high though the Lord is, he looks on the lowly, and strikes down the haughty from far away.

7 Ke pacl mwe lokoalok rauniyula Kom karingyume. Kom lain kasrkusrak lun mwet lokoalok luk Ac kom moliyula ke po ku lom.

Though my way be distressful, yet you preserve me: you lay your hand on my angry foes, and your right hand gives me victory.

8 Kom fah oru ma nukewa ma kom wulela kac; LEUM GOD, lungse lom oan ma pahtpat. Aksafyela orekma su kom mutawauk oru.

The Lord will accomplish all that which concerns me. Your kindness, O Lord, endures forever. O do not abandon the work of your hands.
