Psalm 27
1 [Psalm lal David] LEUM GOD El kalem luk ac lango luk; Su nga ac fah sangeng se? LEUM GOD El pot ku nu ke moul luk, Su nga ac fah sangeng se?
BY DAVID. YHWH [is] my light and my salvation, Whom do I fear? YHWH [is] the strength of my life, Of whom am I afraid?
2 Ke mwet koluk elos tuku in lainyu ac suk in uniyuwi, Elos tukulkul ac ikori.
When evildoers come near to me to eat my flesh, My adversaries and my enemies to me, They have stumbled and fallen.
3 Finne sie un mwet mweun tuku rauniyula, Nga fah tiana sangeng; Finne mwet lokoalok tuku lainyu, Nga fah lulalfongi na God.
Though a host encamps against me, My heart does not fear, Though war rises up against me, In this I [am] confident.
4 Nga siyuk sin LEUM GOD ke ma se, Ac ma sefanna nga lungsik: Tuh nga in muta in lohm sin LEUM GOD in moul luk nufon, In liye kasrpen wolana lal, Ac in siyuk ke koko lal.
One [thing] I asked of YHWH—it I seek: My dwelling in the house of YHWH, All the days of my life, To look on the pleasantness of YHWH, And to inquire in His temple.
5 In pacl in ongoiya, El fah lisringyuyak; El fah karinginyu in Tempul lal Ac oru tuh nga in moulla fin sie eot fulat.
For He hides me in a dwelling place in the day of evil, He hides me in a secret place of His tent, He raises me up on a rock.
6 Tuh nga fah kutangla mwet lokoalok su rauniyula. Nga fah orek kisa in lohm sel ke pusren engan lulap; Nga fah on, ac nga fah kaksakin LEUM GOD.
And now my head is lifted up, Above my enemies—my surrounders, And I sacrifice in His tent sacrifices of shouting, I sing, indeed, I sing praise to YHWH.
7 Lohngyu, O LEUM GOD, ke nga pang nu sum! Pakomutuk ac topukyu!
Hear, O YHWH, my voice—I call, And favor me, and answer me.
8 Ke kom fahk, “Fahsru ac alu nu sik,” Na nga topuk, “Aok, LEUM GOD, nga ac fahsrot.”
My heart said to You, “They sought my face, Your face, O YHWH, I seek.”
9 Nikmet wikinkomla likiyu! Nikmet kasrkusrak sik; Nikmet supwala mwet kulansap lom liki kom. Kom nuna mwet kasru luk; Nikmet fahsr likiyu ku sisyula, O God, Mwet Lango luk.
Do not hide Your face from me, Do not turn Your servant aside in anger, You have been my help. Do not leave me, nor forsake me, O God of my salvation.
10 Sahp papa tumuk ac nina kiuk elos ku in sisyula, Tusruktu LEUM GOD El fah karinginyu.
When my father and my mother Have forsaken me, then YHWH gathers me.
11 LEUM GOD, luti nu sik ma kom lungsum tuh nga in oru, Ac kolyu ke inkanek wo lom, Mweyen pus mwet lokoalok luk.
Show me, O YHWH, Your way, And lead me in a path of uprightness, For the sake of my beholders.
12 Nikmet sisyula nu inpoun mwet lokoalok luk Su lainyu ke kas kikiap ac kas in aksangeng.
Do not give me to the will of my adversaries, For false witnesses have risen against me, And they breathe out violence to me.
13 Nga etu tuh nga fah moul ac liye Woiyen LEUM GOD in moul se inge.
I had not believed to look on the goodness of YHWH In the land of the living!
14 Lulalfongi in LEUM GOD. Lulalfongi, ac tia fuhleak. Lulalfongi na in LEUM GOD.
Look to YHWH—be strong, And He strengthens your heart, Indeed, look to YHWH!
