Psalms 27
1 [A Psalm] of David, before he was anointed. The Lord is my light and my Saviour; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the defender of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
IEOWA kamarain pa I o kamaur pa i, ij me i en majak? Ieowa kel pan maur i, ij me I en lomwinki?
2 When evil-doers drew near against me to eat up my flesh, my persecutors and mine enemies, they fainted and fell.
Ma mejued akan pan tana don ia, pwen kawela uduk ai o ai imwintiti kan, re pan dipikelkel o pupedi.
3 Though an army should set itself in array against me, my heart shall not be afraid: though war should rise up against me, in this am I confident.
Ma pwin jaunpei pan kapil ia pena, i jota pan majapwekada, o ma mauin pan wiaui on ia, I pan liki i.
4 One thing have I asked of the Lord, this will I earnestly seek: that I should dwell in the house of the Lord, all the days of my life, that I should behold the fair beauty of the Lord, and survey his temple.
Iet eta, me I inon ion o men poeki ren Ieowa, I en mimita nan tanpaj en Ieowa arain ai maur, pwen kilekilan jaraui kajelel en Ieowa kan, o ududial japwilim a im en kaudok.
5 For in the day of mine afflictions he hid me in his tabernacle: he sheltered me in the secret of his tabernacle; he set me up on a rock.
Pwe ni anjau apwal a kotin jinila ia nan tanpaj a im pwal. A pan kotin karuk ia la nan tanpaj a im likau, o kotin kau ia da pon paip eu.
6 And now, behold, he has lifted up mine head over mine enemies: I went round and offered in his tabernacle the sacrifice of joy; I will sing even sing psalms to the Lord.
A pan kotin kajapwil ia dan pon ai imwintiti kan, me kapil ia pena; i ap pan wiada mairon en kapin nan tanpaj a im pwal, i pan kaul o kapin on Ieowa.
7 Hear, O Lord, my voice which I have uttered aloud: pity me, and listen to me.
Main, kom kotin ereki nil ai, ma I pan likwir on komui, kom kotin maki on ia o mani ia.
8 My heart said to you, I have diligently sought your face: your face, O Lord, I will seek.
Monion i kin kataman kin komui omui majan: Komail rapakin ia! I me I pil kin rapaki jilan omui. Main Ieowa!
9 Turn not your face away from me, turn not you away from your servant in anger: be you my helper, forsake me not; and, O God my Saviour, overlook me not.
Der karir jan jilan omui mo i, o der kajapokela japwilim omui ladu ni omui onion; pwe komui me jauja pa i. Kom der kotin kaje ia la, o ender muei jan I, Kota i jaunkamaur.
10 For my father and my mother have forsaken me, but the Lord has taken me to himself.
Pwe jam ai in ai likimalie ia la; a Ieowa kotin japwilim anekin ia la.
11 Teach me, O Lord, in your way, and guide me in a right path, because of mine enemies.
Main, kom kotin kajale on ia japwilim omui al o kalua ia nani al pun pweki ai imwintiti kan.
12 Deliver me not over to the desire of them that afflict me; for unjust witnesses have risen up against me, and injustice has lied within herself.
Kom der kotin mueid on ai imwintiti kan en kaloe ia di; pwe jaunkadede likam palian ia, o re wia japun on ia jo majak.
13 I believe that I shall see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.
Ari jo, I aja, me I pan ududial kalanan en Ieowa nan jap en me memaur akan.
14 Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and let your heart be strengthened: yes wait on the Lord.
Auiaui Ieowa! Der majak, o monion om ender majak, o auiaui Ieowa!
