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 Chief Musician. On stringed instruments. A contemplation by David, when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, "Isn't David hiding himself among us?"] Save me, God, by your name. Vindicate me in your might.

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

Hear my prayer, God. Listen 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 have risen up against me. Violent men have sought after my soul. They haven't set God before them. (Selah)

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

Look, God is my helper. Jehovah is the one who sustains 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 repay the evil to my enemies. Destroy them in your 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 free will offering, I will sacrifice to you. I will give thanks to your name, Jehovah, for it is good.

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

For he has delivered me out of all trouble. My eye has seen triumph over my enemies.
