Egalikano lyomuhepekwa
Episalomi lyaDavid
1 Omuwa, uva egalikano lyandje;
pulakena, sho tandi ku kugile ekwatho.
Ila, u kwathe ndje
omoluudhiginini nuuyuuki woye.
2 Omupiya gwoye ino mu fala moompangu,
oshoka kaku na omuntu omuyuuki koshipala shoye.
3 Omutondi ota tidhagana ndje
e ta hata ndje pevi;
otu undulile ndje momilema, ongaamboka ya sa nale.
4 Onda kanitha omukumo;
onda tyololoka.
5 Otandi dhimbulukwa omasiku gonale;
otandi tedhatedha ayihe mbyoka we yi ninga,
notandi dhiladhila iilonga yoye ayihe.
6 Otandi yelutha omaako gandje kungoye;
onde ku yuulukwa nda fa evi lya kukuta
evi lya pumbwa omvula.
7 Omuwa, yamukula ndje mbala;
onda vulwa okutegelela.
Ino holeka ndje oshipala shoye,
opo ndaa fe mbo taa kulukile muusi.
8 Ongula kehe nayi etele ndje elaka lyesilohenda lyoye,
oshoka onde ku inekela.
Otandi ya kungoye megalikano;
ulukila ndje ondjila ndi na okweenda nayo.
9 Omuwa, hupitha ndje miikaha yaatondi yandje;
otandi holama mungoye.
10 Longa ndje okugwanitha ehalo lyoye,
oshoka ongoye Kalunga kandje.
Ombepo yoye nayi endithe ndje mepola lya yelekana.
11 Omuwa, hupitha ndje omolwedhina lyoye;
pititha ndje muudhigu omoluuyuuki woye.
12 Molwaasho u hole ndje,
hanagula po aatondi yandje;
komba po aahepeki yandje ayehe,
oshoka ngame omupiya gwoye.
A Psalm of David.
1 Hear my prayer, O LORD, give ear to my supplications: in thy faithfulness answer me, and in thy righteousness.
2 And enter not into judgment with thy servant: for in thy sight shall no man living be justified.
3 For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; he hath smitten my life down to the ground; he hath made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been long dead.
4 Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me; my heart within me is desolate.
5 I remember the days of old; I meditate on all thy works; I muse on the work of thy hands.
6 I stretch forth my hands unto thee: my soul thirsteth after thee, as a thirsty land. Selah.

7 Hear me speedily, O LORD: my spirit faileth: hide not thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.
8 Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning; for in thee do I trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul unto thee.
9 Deliver me, O LORD, from mine enemies: I flee unto thee to hide me.
10 Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.
11 Quicken me, O LORD, for thy name’s sake: for thy righteousness’ sake bring my soul out of trouble.
12 And of thy mercy cut off mine enemies, and destroy all them that afflict my soul: for I am thy servant.
