< Psalm 58 >
1 [Psalm lal David] Kowos leum lun faclu, ya oasr pacl kowos oru nununku suwohs? Ya kowos oru nununku lowos fal nu sin mwet nukewa?
Unto the end, destroy not, for David, for an inscription of a title. If in very deed you speak justice: judge right things, ye sons of men.
2 Mo, kowos nunku na ke ma koluk kowos in oru, Ac orekma sulallal fin acn uh.
For in your heart you work iniquity: your hands forge injustice in the earth.
3 Mwet koluk elos oru ma sufal in moul lalos nufon; Elos nuna kikiap oe ke elos isusla ah.
The wicked are alienated from the womb; they have gone astray from the womb: they have spoken false things.
4 Elos nwanala ke pwasin, oana wet uh; Elos fonosya insraclos in sulohngkas oana wet cobra
Their madness is according to the likeness of a serpent: like the deaf asp that stoppeth her ears:
5 Su tia lohng pusren on lun mwet akmunayalos, Ku pusren pas lun mwet orek mwenmen.
Which will not hear the voice of the charmers; nor of the wizard that charmeth wisely.
6 O God, kotalik wihsen lion sulallal inge.
God shall break in pieces their teeth in their mouth: the Lord shall break the grinders of the lions.
7 Finsrak tuh elos in wanginla oana kof ma sororla nwe wanginla; Lela tuh elos in itungyuki oana mah su oan inkanek uh.
They shall come to nothing, like water running down; he hath bent his bow till they be weakened.
8 Lela elos in oana ful finmes uh ma ekla nu ke ma fulful ke ac misa; Lela tuh elos in oana sie tulik fusr su isusla ke pacl sufal la ac misa ac tiana liye kalem uh.
Like wax that melteth they shall be taken away: fire hath fallen on them, and they shall not see the sun.
9 Meet liki elos esmakla, in pakpukla elos oana mah pilasr; Elos in srakna moul A God Elan okulosla in kasrkusrak lal.
Before your thorns could know the brier; he swalloweth them up, as alive, in his wrath.
10 Mwet suwoswos elos ac fah engan ke elos liye lah kaiyuk mwet koluk uh; Elos ac fah fahsr sasla in srahn mwet koluk.
The just shall rejoice when he shall see the revenge: he shall wash his hands in the blood of the sinner.
11 Ouinge mwet elos fah fahk, “Mwet suwoswos elos eis lacnen orekma wo lalos; Pwayena lah oasr God se nununku faclu.”
And man shall say: If indeed there be fruit to the just: there is indeed a God that judgeth them on the earth.
