Psalm 138

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

By David. I will give you thanks with my whole heart. Before the gods, I will sing praises to you.

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.

I will bow down towards your holy temple, and give thanks to your Name for your loving kindness and for your truth; for you have exalted your Name and your Word above all.

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

In the day that I called, you answered me. You encouraged me with strength in my soul.

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

All the kings of the earth will give you thanks, LORD, for they have heard the words of your mouth.

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

Yes, they will sing of the ways of the LORD, for the LORD’s glory is great!

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

For though the LORD is high, yet he looks after the lowly; but he knows the proud from afar.

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

Though I walk in the middle of trouble, you will revive me. You will stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies. Your right hand will save me.

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 fulfil that which concerns me. Your loving kindness, LORD, endures forever. Don’t forsake the works of your own hands.
