Psalm 54

1 [Psalm lal David tukun mwet tuku Ziph me nu yorol Saul a fahk nu sel la David el wikwik oan in acn selos.] O God, moliyula ke ku lom; Aksukosokyeyu ke ku lulap lom!

For the Leader; with string-music. Maschil of David: when the Ziphites came and said to Saul: 'Doth not David hide himself with us?' O God, save me by Thy name, and right me by Thy might.

2 Lohng pre luk, O God; Porongo kas luk.

O God, hear my prayer; give ear to the words of my mouth.

3 Mwet inse fulat elos tuku in lainyu, Ac mwet sulallal elos srike in uniyuwi — Mwet su tia akfulatye God.

For strangers are risen up against me, and violent men have sought after my soul; they have not set God before them. (Selah)

4 Tusruk God El mwet kasru luk. Leum El mwe loango luk.

Behold, God is my helper; the Lord is for me as the upholder of my soul.

5 Lela tuh God Elan lain mwet lokoalok luk ke ma koluk lalos sifacna. El ac fah kunauselosla mweyen El oaru.

He will requite the evil unto them that lie in wait for me; destroy Thou them in Thy truth.

6 Nga ac fah engan in oru mwe kisa nu sum, O LEUM GOD; Nga fah sot kulo nu sum Mweyen kom wo.

With a freewill-offering will I sacrifice unto Thee; I will give thanks unto Thy name, O LORD, for it is good.

7 Tuh kom moliyula liki ongoiya luk nukewa, Ac nga liye ke mwet lokoalok luk elos kutangyukla.

For He hath delivered me out of all trouble; and mine eye hath gazed upon mine enemies.
