Psalm 41

1 [Psalm lal David] Insewowo elos su nunku ke mwet sukasrup; Tuh LEUM GOD El ac fah kasrelos in pacl elos sun ongoiya.

For the Leader. A Psalm of David. Happy is he that considereth the poor; the LORD will deliver him in the day of evil.

2 LEUM GOD El ac fah karinganulos ac liyaung moul lalos; El ac fah oru tuh elos in engan fin facl selos; El ac fah tia fuhlelosyang nu inpoun mwet lokoalok lalos.

The LORD preserve him, and keep him alive, let him be called happy in the land; and deliver not Thou him unto the greed of his enemies.

3 LEUM GOD El ac fah kasrelos in pacl in mas lalos Ac akkeyalosla.

The LORD support him upon the bed of illness; mayest Thou turn all his lying down in his sickness.

4 Nga fahk, “Nga oru ma koluk lain kom, LEUM GOD; Pakomutuk ac akkeyeyula.”

As for me, I said: 'O LORD, be gracious unto me; heal my soul; for I have sinned against Thee.'

5 Mwet lokoalok luk elos fahk kas upa keik. Elos kena tuh nga in misa ac in mulkinyukla.

Mine enemies speak evil of me: 'When shall he die, and his name perish?'

6 Elos su tuku liyeyu tia pwaye insialos; Elos porongo sramsram sutuu puspis keik Na elos som srumun yen nukewa.

And if one come to see me, he speaketh falsehood; his heart gathereth iniquity to itself; when he goeth abroad, he speaketh of it.

7 Elos su srungayu elos mahma nu sin sie sin sie keik, Elos kinauk ma na koluk ac finsrak mu in sikyak nu sik.

All that hate me whisper together against me, against me do they devise my hurt:

8 Elos fahk, “Mas in na misa se pa lal inge; El ac fah tia ku in sifil tukakek liki mwe oan kial uh.”

'An evil thing cleaveth fast unto him; and now that he lieth, he shall rise up no more.'

9 Finne mwet kawuk na wowo luk, el su nga lulalfongi oemeet, Su wiyu ipeis ke mwe mongo nak, El forla likiyu.

Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, who did eat of my bread, hath lifted up his heel against me.

10 Pakomutuk, LEUM GOD, ac akkeyeyula, Na nga fah foloksak nu sin mwet lokoalok luk.

But Thou, O LORD, be gracious unto me, and raise me up, that I may requite them.

11 Elos ac fah tia kutangyula, Ac nga fah etu lah kom insewowo sik.

By this I know that Thou delightest in me, that mine enemy doth not triumph over me.

12 Kom ac kasreyu mweyen nga oru ma suwohs; Kom ac fah sruokyuwi yurum nwe tok.

And as for me, Thou upholdest me because of mine integrity, and settest me before Thy face for ever.

13 Kaksakin LEUM GOD, God lun Israel! Kaksakunul inge ac nu tok ma pahtpat! Amen! Amen!

Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting and to everlasting. Amen, and Amen.
