Psalm 71
1 LEUM GOD, nga tuku in wikla yurum; Nikmet lela in kutangyukla nga.
In Thee, O LORD, have I taken refuge; let me never be ashamed.
2 Ke suwoswos lom, kom in kasreyu ac loangeyu. Porongeyu ac moliyula.
Deliver me in Thy righteousness, and rescue me; incline Thine ear unto me, and save me.
3 Kom fah eot in molela luk, Ac nien wikla ku luk in langoeyu, Tuh kom eot ku ac nien muta ku luk.
Be Thou to me a sheltering rock, whereunto I may continually resort, which Thou hast appointed to save me; for Thou art my rock and my fortress.
4 O God luk, moliyula liki poun mwet koluk, Liki ku lun mwet sesuwos ac mwet sulallal.
O my God, rescue me out of the hand of the wicked, out of the grasp of the unrighteous and ruthless man.
5 LEUM GOD Kulana, nga filiya finsrak luk in kom; Nga nuna lulalfongi kom oe ke pacl nga srakna tulik.
For Thou art my hope; O Lord GOD, my trust from my youth.
6 Nga nuna lulalfongi kom in moul luk nufon. Kom karinginyu na oe ke nga isusla ah me. Nga ac fah kaksakin kom pacl e nukewa.
Upon Thee have I stayed myself from birth; Thou art He that took me out of my mother's womb; my praise is continually of Thee.
7 Moul luk sie mwe srikasrak nu sin mwet pus, Mweyen kom mwet kasru ku luk.
I am as a wonder unto many; but Thou art my strong refuge.
8 Ke len nufon nga kaksakin kom Ac fahkak wolana lom.
My mouth shall be filled with Thy praise, and with Thy glory all the day.
9 Nikmet sisyula inge ke nga matuoh; Ac nikmet ngetla likiyu inge ke nga munasla.
Cast me not off in the time of old age; when my strength faileth, forsake me not.
10 Mwet lokoalok luk lungse in uniyuwi, Elos kaskas keik ac pwapa in lainyu.
For mine enemies speak concerning me, and they that watch for my soul take counsel together,
11 Elos fahk, “God El sisella tari. Kut som sruokilya, Tuh wangin mwet ac molella.”
Saying: 'God hath forsaken him; pursue and take him; for there is none to deliver.'
12 O God, nikmet muta loesla likiyu, God luk, aksaye kasreyu.
O God, be not far from me; O my God, make haste to help me.
13 Lela tuh elos su lainyu In kutangyukla ac kunausyukla. Lela tuh elos su suk in akkolukyeyu In akmwekinyeyuk ac akkolukyeyuk.
Let them be ashamed and consumed that are adversaries to my soul; let them be covered with reproach and confusion that seek my hurt.
14 Nga ac fah filiya finsrak luk in kom pacl e nukewa; Nga fah kalwenina in akyokye pusren kaksak luk nu sum.
But as for me, I will hope continually, and will praise Thee yet more and more.
15 Nga ac fah fahkak wolana lom — Ke lusenna len uh nga fah sramsram ke molela lom, Finne yohk liki na ma nga ku in kalem kac.
My mouth shall tell of Thy righteousness, and of Thy salvation all the day; for I know not the numbers thereof.
16 Nga ac fah fahsr ke ku lun LEUM GOD, Nga fah fahkak wolana lom, tuh kom mukena wo.
I will come with Thy mighty acts, O Lord GOD; I will make mention of Thy righteousness, even of Thine only.
17 God, kom lutiyu ke nga tulik me, Ac nga srakna fahkak orekma wolana lom.
O God, Thou hast taught me from my youth; and until now do I declare Thy wondrous works.
18 Inge ke nga matuoh ac fiaya, O God, nik kom fahsr likiyu. Wiyu ke nga fahkak ku lulap lom Nu sin fwil nukewa su ac fah tuku.
And even unto old age and hoary hairs, O God, forsake me not; until I have declared Thy strength unto the next generation, Thy might to every one that is to come.
19 Suwoswos lom, O God, sowak ac sun kusrao, Tuh kom oru ma usrnguk; Wangin sie oana kom.
Thy righteousness also, O God, which reacheth unto high heaven; Thou who hast done great things, O God, who is like unto Thee?
20 Kom tuh supwama mwe ongoiya ac mwe keok nu fuk, Tusruktu kom ac fah sifil folokonma ku luk. Kom ac fah sruokyuwi liki inkulyuk uh.
Thou, who hast made me to see many and sore troubles, wilt quicken me again, and bring me up again from the depths of the earth.
21 Kom ac fah oru tuh nga in fulat liki meet, Ac kom fah sifil akwoyeyu.
Thou wilt increase my greatness, and turn and comfort me.
22 Pwaye nga ac fah kaksakin kom ke pusren harp; Nga ac fah kaksakin oaru lom, God luk. Nga fah sritalkin harp nutik in on nu sum, Kom su Mutallana lun Israel.
I also will give thanks unto Thee with the psaltery, even unto Thy truth, O my God; I will sing praises unto Thee with the harp, O Thou Holy One of Israel.
23 Nga ac fah wowoyak ke engan ke nga srital nu sum; Ke moul luk nufon nga ac fah on, Mweyen kom moliyula.
My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing praises unto Thee; and my soul, which Thou hast redeemed.
24 Nga ac fah kaskas ke suwoswos lom ke lusen len nufon, Mweyen elos su srike in akkolukyeyu Elos kutangyukla ac aklusrongtenyeyukla.
My tongue also shall tell of Thy righteousness all the day; for they are ashamed, for they are abashed, that seek my hurt.
