Psalms 144
1 A Psalm. Of David. Praise be to the God of my strength, teaching my hands the use of the sword, and my fingers the art of fighting:
[Psalm lal David] Kaksakin LEUM GOD, eot ku luk! El lutiyu in anwuk, Ac akoeyu nu ke mweun.
2 He is my strength, and my Rock; my high tower, and my saviour; my keeper and my hope: he gives me authority over my people.
El eot ku luk ac mwe loeyuk luk, Nien molela luk su langoeyula, Su nga filiya lulalfongi luk se. El akpusiselye mutanfahl nu ye niuk.
3 Lord, what is man, that you keep him in mind? or the son of man that you take him into account?
LEUM GOD, mea mwet uh, tuh kom in akilenulos? Mwet uh ma pilasr, na kom ku lohang nu selos?
4 Man is like a breath: his life is like a shade which is quickly gone.
Mwet uh oana polo eng se ma tuhwot tuhme; Lusen len lalos oana ohk, su sa na wanginla.
5 Come down, O Lord, from your heavens: at your touch let the mountains give out smoke.
O LEUM GOD, ikaselik kusrao ac oatume; Kahlye eol uh, ac elos fah fosryak.
6 With your storm-flames send them in flight: send out your arrows for their destruction.
Supweya sarom in akfahsryelik mwet lokoalok lom; Pusrkama pisr nutum, ac oru elos in kaing.
7 Put out your hand from on high; make me free, take me safely out of the great waters, and out of the hands of strange men;
Asroema poum lucng me. Srukyuyak liki kof loal, ac moliyula. Moliyula liki inpoun mwetsac,
8 In whose mouths are false words, and whose right hand is a right hand of deceit.
Su tia fahk kas pwaye, Ac elos kaskas kikiap elos finne fulahk.
9 I will make a new song to you, O God; I will make melody to you on an instrument of ten cords.
Nga fah onkin soko on sasu nu sum, O God, Nga fah srital ke harp ac on nu sum.
10 It is God who gives salvation to kings; and who kept his servant David from the wounding sword.
Kom pa oru tuh tokosra in eis kutangla, Ac kom molella David, mwet kulansap lom.
11 Make me free, and take me out of the hands of strange men, in whose mouths are false words, and whose right hand is a right hand of deceit.
Moliyula liki mwet lokoalok sulallal luk; Moliyula liki ku lun mwetsac, Su tia fahk kas pwaye, Ac elos kaskas kikiap elos finne fulahk.
12 Our sons are like tall young plants; and our daughters like the shining stones of a king's house;
Lela tuh wen natusr, su srakna mwet fusr, In oana sak sunasr ma kapak arulana ku. Lela tuh acn natusr in oana sru loeloes Ma tu ke sruwasrik in lohm sin tokosra.
13 Our store-houses are full of all good things; and our sheep give birth to thousands and ten thousands in our fields.
Lela tuh nien fil fokin ima lasr in nwanala Ke kain in fahko nukewa. Lela tuh sheep in ima lasr In oswe tausin ac ngoul tausin.
14 Our oxen are well weighted down; our cows give birth safely; there is no going out, and there is no cry of sorrow in our open places.
Lela tuh cow natusr in isus pus Ac in wangin ma isus tuh misa. Lela tuh in wangin pusren asor ke inkanek lasr uh.
15 Happy is the nation whose ways are so ordered: yes, happy is the nation whose God is the Lord.
Insewowo mutunfacl se su sikyak ouinge nu selos; Aok, insewowo mutunfacl se su LEUM GOD El God lalos!
