< Psalms 28 >
1 Of David. To You, O LORD, I call; be not deaf to me, O my Rock. For if You remain silent, I will be like those descending to the Pit.
MAING, ai paipalap, i lao likwir wong komui, kom der kotin sapaimokid, pwe ma re pan sapaimokid, i pan dueta ir, me pan lokidokila nan por o.
2 Hear my cry for mercy when I call to You for help, when I lift up my hands toward Your holy sanctuary.
Kom kotin mangi ngil en ai ngidingid, i lao likwir wong komui, i lao kapa wong pa i kat mol omui saraui.
3 Do not drag me away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace to their neighbors while malice is in their hearts.
Re der kotin kasapoke ia la iangaki me sapung kan, iangaki me wia sued, me kin lokaia kaselel ong men impa, ap lamelame sued nan mongiong arail.
4 Repay them according to their deeds and for their works of evil. Repay them for what their hands have done; bring back on them what they deserve.
Kotin depuk ong ir duen ar dodok o duen ar tiak sued; kotiki ong ir duen dodok en pa arail; katingi ong ir duen ar wiawia.
5 Since they show no regard for the works of the LORD or what His hands have done, He will tear them down and never rebuild them.
Pwe re sota insenoki dodok en Ieowa de wiawia en lim a kan; i me a pan kotin kawe ir ala, a sota kauada.
6 Blessed be the LORD, for He has heard my cry for mercy.
Kaping ong Ieowa, pwe a kotin erekier ngil en ai ngidingid.
7 The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart rejoices, and I give thanks to Him with my song.
Ieowa kel pa i o pere pa i, mongiong i kin liki i, o sauas pa i mia. Mongiong i liki i o i pan danke i ki ai kaul.
8 The LORD is the strength of His people, a stronghold of salvation for His anointed.
Ieowa kele parail; i me manaman ong sauasa sapwilim a me keidier.
9 Save Your people and bless Your inheritance; shepherd them and carry them forever.
Kotin sauasa sapwilim omui aramas akan o kotin kamauiala sapwilim omui soso, o kotin kamanga ir o apwali irail ada kokolata!
