Psalms 143
1 A Psalm of David, when his son Absalom was pursuing him. O Lord, hear my prayer. Incline your ear to my supplication in your truth. Heed me according to your justice.
MAIN Ieowa, kom kotin ereki ai kapakap, o karon ar en mani ai nidinid; mani ia ni ar melel o ar pun.
2 And do not enter into judgment with your servant. For all the living will not be justified in your sight.
Kom der kotin kadeikada japwilim omui ladu, pwe mo’mui jota me maur men me pun.
3 For the enemy has pursued my soul. He has lowered my life to the earth. He has stationed me in darkness, like the dead of ages past.
Pwe imwintiti kin majamajan ia, o kin tiakedi maur i; a kin kaje ia di waja rotorot dueta ir me melar maj o.
4 And my spirit has been in anguish over me. My heart within me has been disturbed.
Nen i kin luetala, o monion i ponla.
5 I have called to mind the days of antiquity. I have been meditating on all your works. I have meditated on the workings of your hands.
I kin tamanda anjau maj akan, o madamadaua duen ar wriawia kan; i kin lamelame duen dodok en lim omui kan.
6 I have extended my hands to you. My soul is like a land without water before you.
I kin kapa won komui pa i kat, duen jap madekon eu, me kin inon ion katau, iduen nen i kin inon ion ir.
7 O Lord, heed me quickly. My spirit has grown faint. Do not turn your face away from me, lest I become like those who descend into the pit.
Main Ieowa, kom kotin mani ia madan, nen i kin dupokala. Kom der kotin karirala jilan omui jan mo i, pwe i ender dueta ir, me pan lokidokila. pj. 28.1
8 Make me hear your mercy in the morning. For I have hoped in you. Make known to me the way that I should walk. For I have lifted up my soul to you.
Nin joran omui kalanan en pwara don ia, pwe i kin liki komui; kom kotin kajale on ia al, me i en weid ia, pwe nen i kin auiaui komui.
9 O Lord, rescue me from my enemies. I have fled to you.
Main Ieowa, kom kotin doro ia la jan ai imwintiti kan, i kin kaporoporeki komui.
10 Teach me to do your will. For you are my God. Your good Spirit will lead me into the righteous land.
Padaki on ia, pwe i en dodok duen kupur omui; pwe komui ni Kot; nen omui mau en kotin kalua ia pon al pun.
11 For the sake of your name, O Lord, you will revive me in your fairness. You will lead my soul out of tribulation.
Main Ieowa, kom kotin kamau ia da pweki mar omui; kalua ia jan nan waja apwal ni omui pun.
12 And you will scatter my enemies in your mercy. And you will destroy all those who afflict my soul. For I am your servant.
O kotin kawela ai imwintit i kan, pweki omui kalanan; o kotin kamela karoj me kin katoutoui nen i, pwe nai japwilim omui ladu.
