Psalm 61

1 [Psalm lal David] Lohng tung luk, O God; Porongo pre luk!

Unto the end. With hymns, of David. O God, pay attention to my supplication. Be attentive to my prayer.

2 Nga pang nu sum Ke nga muta loesla liki acn sik ac nga fuhleak finsrak luk. Usyu nu ke sie acn in molela,

I cried out to you from the ends of the earth. When my heart was in anguish, you exalted me on a rock. You have led me,

3 Tuh kom nien wikla luk, Ac mwet kasru ku luk in lain mwet lokoalok luk.

for you have been my hope, a tower of strength before the face of the enemy.

4 Lela nga in muta in lohm mutal sum in moul luk nufon; Lela nga in konauk nien molela luk ye lulin poum.

I will dwell in your tabernacle forever. I will be protected under the cover of your wings.

5 Tuh kom lohng wulela luk, O God, Ac kom ase nu sik mwe usru lun mwet su sunakin kom.

For you, my God, have listened to my prayer. You have granted an inheritance to those who fear your name.

6 Akloesye moul lun tokosra; Lela tuh elan moul paht!

You will add days to the days of the king, to his years, even to the time of generation after generation.

7 Lela tuh elan leum ma pahtpat ye motom, O God; Karinganul ke lungse kawil ac oaru lom.

He remains in eternity, in the sight of God. Who will long for his mercy and truth?

8 Ke ma inge nga fah on ac kaksakin kom pacl e nukewa, Oana ke nga oru mwe kisa luk nu sum len nukewa, fal nu ke wulela luk.

So I will compose a psalm to your name, forever and ever, so that I may repay my vows from day to day.
