< Psalm 3 >

1 [Psalm lal David, ke el Kaingkunul Absalom, Wen natul] O LEUM GOD, puslana mwet lokoalok luk, Pusenina mwet tuyak lainyu!
“A Psalm of David, when he fled from his son Absalom.” How many, O LORD, are mine enemies! How many are they who rise up against me!
2 Elos kaskas keik ac fahk, “God El ac tia kasrel.”
How many are they who say of me, “There is no help for him with God”! (Pause)
3 Tusruktu, O LEUM GOD, kom mwe loang luk liki ongoiya in pacl e nukewa. Kom ase nu sik kutangla, Ac akpulaikyeyu.
But thou, O LORD! art my shield, My glory, and the lifter-up of my head.
4 Nga pang nu sin LEUM GOD tuh elan kasreyu, Ac El topukyu liki eol mutal sel.
I call upon the LORD with my voice, And he heareth me from his holy hill. (Pause)
5 Nga ona ac motulla, Ac LEUM GOD El karinginyu nwe ke nga ngutalik.
I lay me down and sleep; I awake, for the LORD sustaineth me.
6 Nga tia sangeng sin tausin mwet lokoalok Su rauniyula yen nukewa.
I will not fear the ten thousands of people Who on every side set themselves against me.
7 Fahsru, LEUM GOD! Moliyula, God luk! Kom kai mwet lokoalok luk nukewa Ac akmunasyalos, na wangin ku lalos in aklokoalokyeyu.
Arise, O LORD! Save me, O my God! For thou smitest the cheek of all my enemies; Thou breakest the teeth of the wicked.
8 Kutangla tuku sin LEUM GOD— Lela tuh Elan akinsewowoye mwet lal.
Deliverance cometh from the LORD: May thy blessing be with thy people! (Pause)
