< Psalm 52 >

1 [Psalm lal David, ma Simla tukun Doeg, Mwet Edom, el som nu yorol Saul ac Fahk nu sel lah David el Som tari nu lohm sel Ahimelech.] O mwet fulat se, efu kom ku konkin ke ma koluk lom? Lungkulang lun God uh oan nwe tok.
For the Chief Musician. A contemplation by David, when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, “David has come to Ahimelech’s house.” Why do you boast of mischief, mighty man? God’s loving kindness endures continually.
2 Kom suk inkanek in akkolukye mwet saya. Loum oana sie resa kosroh. Kom kinauk kikiap in pacl nukewa.
Your tongue plots destruction, like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.
3 Kom lungse ma koluk yohk liki ma wo, Ac ma sutuu yohk liki ma pwaye.
You love evil more than good, lying rather than speaking the truth. (Selah)
4 Kom lungsena akngalye mwet ke kas lom, kom mwet kikiap!
You love all devouring words, you deceitful tongue.
5 Ke ma inge God El ac fah kunauskomla nwe tok; El ac fah sruokkomi ac tulakinkomla liki lohm sum; El ac fah moklekomla liki facl sin mwet moul.
God will likewise destroy you forever. He will take you up, and pluck you out of your tent, and root you out of the land of the living. (Selah)
6 Ke mwet suwoswos elos ac liye ma inge elos ac fah sangeng; Na elos ac fah isrun kom ac fahk,
The righteous also will see it, and fear, and laugh at him, saying,
7 “Liye, pa inge sie mwet su tia suk kasru sin God, A el lulalfongi na ke mwe kasrup yohk lal sifacna, Ac suk moul misla nu sel ke inkanek in sulallal.”
“Behold, this is the man who didn’t make God his strength, but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness.”
8 A funu nga, nga oana soko sak olive su kapak in lohm sin God; Nga ac lulalfongi ke lungse kawil lal nwe tok.
But as for me, I am like a green olive tree in God’s house. I trust in God’s loving kindness forever and ever.
9 Nga ac fah kulo nu sum pacl nukewa, O God, ke orekma lom; Ye mutun mwet lom Nga ac fah fahkak tuh kom wo.
I will give you thanks forever, because you have done it. I will hope in your name, for it is good, in the presence of your holy ones.
