Psalms 40
1 For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. I waited patiently for the LORD; He inclined to me and heard my cry.
I AUIAUIER Ieowa, o a kotin iroir dong ia o kotin erekier ai likelikwir.
2 He lifted me up from the pit of despair, out of the miry clay; He set my feet upon a rock, and made my footsteps firm.
A kotin api ia da sang nan por sued o sang wasa lususur, o kotin kasonedier nä i kat pon paip eu, pwen kak alu mau;
3 He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear and put their trust in the LORD.
O a kotiki ong nan au ai kaul kap pot, pwen kapinga atail Kot; i me aramas toto pan udial ap lan Ieowa o kaporoporeki i.
4 Blessed is the man who has made the LORD his trust, who has not turned to the proud, nor to those who lapse into falsehood.
Meid pai ol o me kaporoporeki Ieowa o sota waroki ong me aklapalap akan, de me weweid nin tiak likam!
5 Many, O LORD my God, are the wonders You have done, and the plans You have for us— none can compare to You— if I proclaim and declare them, they are more than I can count.
Maing ai Kot, meid kapuriamui sapwilim omui dodok kan o omui madamadaua, me komui kotin kasale ong kit. Sota me rasong komui. I men kaparok o kasokasoi duen, a re sota mau ong wadok.
6 Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, but my ears You have opened. Burnt offerings and sin offerings You did not require.
Kom sota kotin kupura mairong man de mairong wan tuka kan; a kom kotin kawasak pasang salong ai; kom sota kotin mauki mairong isis de mairong en dip.
7 Then I said, “Here I am, I have come— it is written about me in the scroll:
Ngai ap inda: Kilang, I kokodo; nan puk o me intingidier duen ngai.
8 I delight to do Your will, O my God; Your law is within my heart.”
I men kapwaiada kupur omui, ai Kot; o sapwilim omui kapung o mi nan lol en mongiong i.
9 I proclaim righteousness in the great assembly; behold, I do not seal my lips, as You, O LORD, do know.
I pan padaki ong momodisou laud duen me pung. Kilang, i sota pan nenenla, Maing kom kotin mangi.
10 I have not covered up Your righteousness in my heart; I have declared Your faithfulness and salvation; I have not concealed Your loving devotion and faithfulness from the great assembly.
I sota okila omui pung nan mongiong i. I kin kapakaparok duen omui melel o maur, i sota kin okila omui kalangan o melel mon momodisou laud.
11 O LORD, do not withhold Your mercy from me; Your loving devotion and faithfulness will always guard me.
A komui Maing der kotiki sang ia omui kalangan, omui kalangan o melel en sinsila ia ansau karos.
12 For evils without number surround me; my sins have overtaken me, so that I cannot see. They are more than the hairs of my head, and my heart has failed within me.
Pwe ai kalokolok kapil ia pena, o re sota mau ong wadok; dip ai katoutou ia, i ap solar kilang wasa; ir me toto sang pit en mong ai, ap solar angiang.
13 Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me; hurry, O LORD, to help me.
Kom kotin kupura ia Maing, o kotin dore ia la; Maing kom kotin sauasa madang!
14 May those who seek my life be ashamed and confounded; may those who wish me harm be repelled and humiliated.
Me kin masamasan ia, pwen kame ia la, en namenokala o lisela; me men wia sued ong ia, en purewei o lisela.
15 May those who say to me, “Aha, aha!” be appalled at their own shame.
Ir me kin likelikwirki due ai: “Io, io!” en masak o lisela.
16 May all who seek You rejoice and be glad in You; may those who love Your salvation always say, “The LORD be magnified!”
Karos me idok komui, en pereperen o popol. O me pok ong omui maur, ansau karos ren inda: Meid kapingan Ieowa!
17 But I am poor and needy; may the Lord think of me. You are my helper and deliverer; O my God, do not delay.
Pwe ngai samama o luet; a Ieowa kin kotin apwali ia. Komui sauas pa i o ai saundor; ai Kot, kom der kotin pwand!
