< Psalms 16 >

1 The inscription of a title: of David himself. Preserve me, O Lord, because I have hoped in you.
MAIN Kot, kom kotin jinjila ia, pwe i liki komui.
2 I have said to the Lord: “You are my God, so you have no need of my goodness.”
Nai potoan on Ieowa: Komui ta ai Kaun, jota eu pai, me i aja, pwe komui eta.
3 As for the saints, who are in his land: he has made all my desires wonderful in them.
O I kin indan jaraui kan, me kin mi nan jappa: Met akan pwin ijou, me I kin pokepoke jan ni monion i.
4 Their infirmities have been multiplied; after this, they acted more quickly. I will not gather for their convocations of blood, nor will I remember their names with my lips.
A irail me kin idedauen amen, pan lodi on apwal toto. I jota mauki arail mairon, me doleki nta, de mar arail I jota pan inda.
5 The Lord is the portion of my inheritance and my cup. It is you who will restore my inheritance to me.
A Ieowa ai pai o ai peren; Komui kin kolekol ai jojo.
6 The lots have fallen upon me with clarity. And, indeed, my inheritance has been very clear to me.
I diaradar ai pwaij en jap kajelel eu, ei pai kajelel eu, me i jojokier.
7 I will bless the Lord, who has bestowed understanding upon me. Moreover, my temperament has also corrected me, even through the night.
I kapina Ieowa, me kotin kalolekon ia; pil ni pon mudilik i kan kin padaki on ia.
8 I have made provision for the Lord always in my sight. For he is at my right hand, so that I may not be disturbed.
I kin ariri Ieowa anjau karoj, pwe a kotikot ni pali maun i, i ap jota pan luetala.
9 Because of this, my heart has been joyful, and my tongue has exulted. Moreover, even my body will rest in hope.
I me monion i kin peren kida, o nen i kin popol, pwe pil pali uduk ai pan moleilei.
10 For you will not abandon my soul to Hell, nor will you allow your holy one to see corruption. (Sheol h7585)
Pwe kom jota pan kotin mauki, nen i en mimieta nan wajan mela, o kom jota pan mueid on, me japwilim omui jaraui men pan mor pajan. (Sheol h7585)
11 You have made known to me the ways of life; you will fill me with joy by your countenance. At your right hand are delights, even to the end.
Kom kin kotin kaaja kin ia al maur; peren lapalap mi mon jilan omui, o meid linan ni pali maun en lim omui kokolata.
