Psalm 56
1 [Psalm lal David, Tukun Mwet Philistia Sruokol in acn Gath] Pakomutuk, O God, Tuh mwet lokoalok luk elos ukweyu, Elos kalyeiyu in pacl e nukewa.
Be merciful to me, God, for man wants to swallow me up. All day long, he attacks and oppresses me.
2 Mwet su srungayu elos lainyu len fon; Arulana pus mwet anwuk lainyu inge.
My enemies want to swallow me up all day long, for they are many who fight proudly against me.
3 Ke pacl nga pula sangeng, O LEUM GOD Kulana, Nga filiya lulalfongi luk in kom.
When I am afraid, I will put my trust in you.
4 Nga lulalfongi God, ac tiana sangeng; Nga kaksakunul ke wulela lal nu sik. Mea mwet ac ku in oru nu sik?
In God, I praise his word. In God, I put my trust. I will not be afraid. What can flesh do to me?
5 Mwet lokoalok luk aklokoalokyeyu ke len fon; Pacl nukewa elos suk na ma in akkolukyeyu!
All day long they twist my words. All their thoughts are against me for evil.
6 Elos tukeni ke nien wikwik Ac tawi ma nukewa nga oru, Ac kena uniyuwi.
They conspire and lurk, watching my steps, they are eager to take my life.
7 Kaelos, O God, ke ma koluk lalos inge; Ac kutangulosla in kasrkusrak lom!
Shall they escape by iniquity? In anger cast down the peoples, God.
8 Kom etu lupan fosrnga luk; Kom etu lupan tung luk. Ya ma inge tia simla in book nutum?
You count my wanderings. You put my tears into your bottle. Are not they in your book?
9 Ke len se nga pang nu sum uh, Mwet lokoalok luk elos ac folokelik likiyu. Ma se na nga etu uh pa God El wiyu —
Then my enemies shall turn back in the day that I call. I know this, that God is for me.
10 Aok, LEUM GOD su nga kaksakin wulela la.
In God, I will praise his word. In Adonai, I will praise his word.
11 Nga lulalfongi in El, ac nga ac fah tiana sangeng. Mea mwet ac ku in oru nu sik?
I have put my trust in God. I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?
12 O God, nga ac fah asot nu sum ma su nga wulela kac; Nga ac fah oru mwe kisa in fahkak kulo luk nu sum,
Your vows are on me, God. I will give thank offerings to you.
13 Mweyen kom moliyula liki misa Ac sruokyuwi tuh in tia kutangyukla nga. Inge nga fahsr ye mutun God Ke kalem su sang moul nu sin mwet uh.
For you have delivered my soul from death, and prevented my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living.
