Psalm 64
1 [Psalm lal David] O God, porongo pre luk, tuh nga muta in ongoiya! Moliyula tuh nga sangeng sin mwet lokoalok luk!
God, listen to me as I tell you the things that I am worried about. I am afraid of my enemies; so save/rescue me from them.
2 Langoeyula liki pwapa lukma lun mwet sulallal, Ac liki u lulap lun mwet koluk.
Protect me from what wicked men are planning to do to me; protect me from that gang of men who do what is evil.
3 Elos teim lohulos oana cutlass, Ac akoo in pisrik kas kutasrik lalos oana sukan pisr.
The hostile things they say [MTY] are like [SIM] [sharp] swords; their cruel words are like [SIM] arrows.
4 Elos sa na in fahkelik kaskas kikiap lalos; Elos kunausla mwet wo ke kaskas in akkoluk lalos.
Without being afraid, they [lie about people and slander people] who have not done what is wrong, like someone who suddenly jumps up from where he is hiding and shoots [arrows] at his enemy [MET].
5 Elos akkeye sie sin sie ke pwapa lukma lalos; Elos pwapani lah elos ac filiya oya mwe kwasrip lalos, Ac fahk, “Wangin mwet ac ku in liye.”
They encourage each other about doing the evil things that they are planning to do; they talk [with each other] about where they can set traps to catch people, and they think, “No one [RHQ] will see what we are doing,
6 Elos oru pwapa koluk lalos ac fahk, “Lemlem na wowo se pa kut orala inge!” Nunak ac insien mwet uh ma lukma!
because we have planned very well the crime that we are going to commit!” No one can fully understand what people can think and plan!
7 Tusruktu God El pisrki pisr natul nu kaclos Ac elos kineta in pacl sa na.
But [it will be as though] God will shoot his arrows at them, and suddenly they will be wounded.
8 El ac fah kunauselosla ke sripen kas lalos; Mwet nukewa su liye ma inge elos fah usruk sifalos.
Because of what they say [MTY], he will get rid of them, and then everyone who sees [what has happened to] them will shake their heads [to ridicule them].
9 Elos nukewa ac fah sangeng; Elos ac nunku yohk ke ma God El oru inge Ac srumun ma El orala.
And then everyone will be afraid [to sin because of what might happen to them, also]; they will tell others what God has done, and they themselves will think much about it.
10 Mwet suwoswos nukewa elos ac fah enganak Ke sripen ma LEUM GOD El oru. Elos ac fah konauk moul misla in El; Mwet wo nukewa elos ac fah kaksakunul.
Righteous people should rejoice because of what Yahweh [has done]; they should go to him to (find protection/be safe); and all those who are godly will praise him.
