1 Omwene, xupife nge movanhu vai,
Ove amene nge kovalumenhu ovakolokoshi,
2 ava hava dutu owii momitima davo,
otava etifa olwoodi keshe tuu efiku.
3 Otava upike omalaka avo, a fe leyoka;
oudiyo wonhoka u li koshi yomilungu davo. Sela
4 Omwene, amene nge komake ovakolokoshi!
Shiye nge kovalumenhu ovapwidi,
ava tava diladila okupundulila nge po.
5 Eemhote oda tela nge omwiyo nomalulo meholeko,
noiyulifo ohave i dikile nge pomunghulo wondjila
ndele tava fele nge omakelo. Sela
6 Onda tya kOmwene: Oove ngaho Kalunga kange.
Omwene, pwilikina omailikano ange omokule!
7 Omwene, Kalunga kange, ekwafo lange la pama,
Ove ho amene omutwe wange mefiku lolwoodi.
8 Omwene, ino itavela oihalwa yovakolokoshi,
ino efa ekondjelo lavo lii li ninge elao. Sela
9 Ngeenge va yelula omitwe davo,
va hangakena nge keembinga adishe,
opo omupya, ou wa pangelwa komilungu davo,
nau alukile kombada yomitwe davo vene.
10 Oye ne va lokifile omakala omundilo.
Ne va undwile momutemo, momakelo,
vaha shiive okufikama vali.
11 Omulundili ita ka mona, apa te likwatelele moshilongo;
omhote nai tewatewe kemonifo loixuna
kedengo nedengo!
12 Ondi shi shii, Omwene Oye ota endifa
oshikondjelwa shovakwanaluhepo,
ekondjo lomapongo okuyukifilwa.
13 Heeno, ovayuki otava ka pandula edina loye,
ovakoshoki otava kala koshipala shoye.
To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.
1 Deliver me, O LORD, from the evil man: preserve me from the violent man;
2 Which imagine mischiefs in their heart; continually are they gathered together for war.
3 They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; adders’ poison is under their lips. Selah.
4 Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me from the violent man; who have purposed to overthrow my goings.
5 The proud have hid a snare for me, and cords; they have spread a net by the wayside; they have set gins for me. Selah.
6 I said unto the LORD, Thou art my God: hear the voice of my supplications, O LORD.
7 O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, thou hast covered my head in the day of battle.
8 Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked: further not his wicked device; lest they exalt themselves. Selah.
9 As for the head of those that compass me about, let the mischief of their own lips cover them.
10 Let burning coals fall upon them: let them be cast into the fire; into deep pits, that they rise not up again.
11 Let not an evil speaker be established in the earth: evil shall hunt the violent man to overthrow him .
12 I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted, and the right of the poor.
13 Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto thy name: the upright shall dwell in thy presence.
