Psalm 141
1 [Psalm lal David] Nga pang nu sum, LEUM GOD. Kasreyu inge! Lipsreyu ke nga pang nu sum.
A psalm of David. Yahweh, I am crying out to you; come quickly to me. Listen to me when I call to you.
2 Eis pre luk in oana mwe kisa keng, Ac ke nga sralak pouk, eis in oana mwe kisa in eku.
May my prayer be like incense before you; may my lifted hands be like the evening sacrifice.
3 LEUM GOD, filiya sie mwe karinginyen oalik, Ac mwe taran srungul lun ngoasrok.
Yahweh, place a guard over my mouth; guard the door of my lips.
4 Ikolyuwi tuh nga in tia lungse oru ma koluk, Ac in tia wi mwet koluk ke ma elos oru. Lela nga in tiana ipeis ke kufwa lalos.
Do not let my heart desire any evil thing or participate in sinful activities with men who behave wickedly. May I not eat any of their delicacies.
5 Sie mwet wo el ku in kaiyu ac aksuwosyeyu ke kulang lal, Tusruktu nga fah tia lela mwet koluk in akfulatyeyu, Mweyen nga pre in lain orekma koluk lalos pacl e nukewa.
Let a righteous man hit me; it will be a kindness to me. Let him correct me; it will be like oil on my head; may my head not refuse to accept it. But my prayer is always against their wicked deeds.
6 Ke mwet kol lalos sisyukla liki fulu in eot uh, Na mwet uh ac fah etu lah kas luk pwaye.
Their leaders will be thrown down from the top of cliffs; they will hear that my own words are pleasant.
7 Oana sak su lipikyuki nu ke ip srisrik, Ouinge sri kaclos ac fah oan oaclik sisken kulyuk uh. (Sheol h7585)
They will have to say, “As when one plows and breaks up the ground, so our bones have been scattered at the mouth of Sheol.” (Sheol h7585)
8 Tusruktu nga nuna lulalfongi kom, LEUM GOD Kulana. Nga suk molela lom; Nikmet lela nga in misa!
Surely my eyes are on you, Yahweh, Lord; in you I take refuge; do not leave my soul defenseless.
9 Moliyula liki mwe kwasrip su elos orala in sruokyu, Ac liki sruhf lun mwet orekma koluk.
Protect me from the snares that they have laid for me, from the traps of evildoers.
10 Lela tuh mwet koluk in putatyang nu in sruhf lalos sifacna A nga fahla na siska, ac tia sruoh.
Let the wicked fall into their own nets while I escape.
