Psalm 61

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

To the chief Musician upon Neginah, A Psalm of David. Hear my cry, O God; attend 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,

From the end of the earth will I cry to thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

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

For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from 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 abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the shelter of thy wings. (Selah)

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

For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear thy name.

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

Thou wilt prolong the king’s life: and his years as many generations.

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

He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, which may preserve him.

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 will I sing praise to thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.
