Egalikano lyomuvu
Episalomi lyaDavid
1 Aanelago oomboka ye na oshimpwiyu noohepele;
Omuwa ote ya kwatha, uuna ye li muudhigu.
2 Omuwa ote ya gamene e te ya shigi kiiponga;
ote ya kaleke nawa moshilongo;
ite ya ethele miikaha yaatondi yawo.
3 Omuwa ote ya kwatha, uuna ye li muuvu
note ya galulile uukolele wawo.
4 Ngame onda ti: “Onda yono kungoye, Omuwa;
sila ndje ohenda e to aludha ndje.”
5 Aatondi yandje otaa popi ndje nayi.
Oya hala, ndi se e te dhimbiwa.
6 Mbo taa talele ndje po, kaye li moshili;
otaa totele ndje omahokololo omawinayi
notaa yi e taa ga taandelitha akuhe.
7 Ayehe mbo ye tonde ndje,
otaa popi ndje nokunongona,
taa fekele ndje uuwinayi.
8 Otaa ti: “Uuvu we owokusa;
momulalo ita zi mo we.”
9 Nakuume lela ngo ndi inekela,
ngo handi pe iikulya,
okwa tsa ondumbo nangame.
10 Omuwa, sila ndje ohenda,
u pe ndje ishewe uukolele,
notandi ya shunithile uuwinayi wawo.
11 Itaa ka sinda ndje,
nangame otandi ka tseya kutya owa hokwa ndje.
12 Oto kwatha ndje,
oshoka ohandi longo shoka shu uka;
oto kaleke ndje aluhe pungoye.
13 Hambeleleni Omuwa, Kalunga kaIsrael!
Mu hambeleleni nena nosigo aluhe!
Amen! Amen!
(A psalm by David for the music leader.)
A Prayer in Time of Sickness
1 You, Lord God, bless everyone
who cares for the poor,
and you rescue those people
in times of trouble.
2 You protect them
and keep them alive.
You make them happy here
in this land,
and you don't hand them over
to their enemies.
3 You always heal them
and restore their strength
when they are sick.
4 I prayed, “Have pity, Lord!
Heal me, though I have sinned
against you.”
5 My vicious enemies ask me,
“When will you die
and be forgotten?”
6 When visitors come,
all they ever bring
are worthless words,
and when they leave,
they spread gossip.
7 My enemies whisper about me.
They think the worst,
8 and they say,
“You have some fatal disease!
You'll never get well.”
9 My most trusted friend
has turned against me,
though he ate at my table.
10 Have pity, Lord! Heal me,
so I can pay them back.
11 Then my enemies
won't defeat me,
and I will know
that you really care.
12 You have helped me
because I am innocent,
and you will always
be close to my side.
13 You, the Lord God of Israel,
will be praised forever!
Amen and amen.
