Psalms 40
1 To the chief Musician. Of David. A Psalm. I waited patiently for Jehovah; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.
I AUIAUIER Ieowa, o a kotin iroir don ia o kotin erekier ai likelikwir.
2 And he brought me up out of the pit of destruction, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock; he hath established my goings:
A kotin api ia da jan nan por jued o jan waja lujujur, o kotin kajonedier na i kat pon paip eu, pwen kak alu mau;
3 And he hath put a new song in my mouth, praise unto our God. Many shall see it, and fear, and shall confide in Jehovah.
O a kotiki on nan au ai kaul kap pot, pwen kapina atail Kot; i me aramaj toto pan udial ap lan Ieowa o kaporoporeki i.
4 Blessed is the man that hath made Jehovah his confidence, and turneth not to the proud, and to such as turn aside to lies.
Meid pai ol o me kaporoporeki Ieowa o jota waroki on me aklapalap akan, de me weweid nin tiak likam!
5 Thou, O Jehovah my God, hast multiplied thy marvellous works, and thy thoughts toward us: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee; would I declare and speak [them], they are more than can be numbered.
Main ai Kot, meid kapuriamui japwilim omui dodok kan o omui madamadaua, me komui kotin kajale on kit. Jota me rajon komui. I men kaparok o kajokajoi duen, a re jota mau on wadok.
6 Sacrifice and oblation thou didst not desire: ears hast thou prepared me. Burnt-offering and sin-offering hast thou not demanded;
Kom jota kotin kupura mairon man de mairon wan tuka kan; a kom kotin kawajak pajan jalon ai; kom jota kotin mauki mairon ijij de mairon en dip.
7 Then said I, Behold, I come, in the volume of the book it is written of me —
Nai ap inda: Kilan, I kokodo; nan puk o me intinidier duen nai.
8 To do thy good pleasure, my God, is my delight, and thy law is within my heart.
I men kapwaiada kupur omui, ai Kot; o japwilim omui kapun o mi nan lol en monion i.
9 I have published righteousness in the great congregation: behold, I have not withheld my lips, Jehovah, thou knowest.
I pan padaki on momodijou laud duen me pun. Kilan, i jota pan nenenla, Main kom kotin mani.
10 I have not hidden thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and thy salvation: I have not concealed thy loving-kindness and thy truth from the great congregation.
I jota okila omui pun nan monion i. I kin kapakaparok duen omui melel o maur, i jota kin okila omui kalanan o melel mon momodijou laud.
11 Withhold not thou, Jehovah, thy tender mercies from me; let thy loving-kindness and thy truth continually preserve me.
A komui Main der kotiki jan ia omui kalanan, omui kalanan o melel en jinjila ia anjau karoj.
12 For innumerable evils have compassed me about: mine iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I cannot see; they are more than the hairs of my head: and my heart hath failed me.
Pwe ai kalokolok kapil ia pena, o re jota mau on wadok; dip ai katoutou ia, i ap jolar kilan waja; ir me toto jan pit en mon ai, ap jolar anian.
13 Be pleased, O Jehovah, to deliver me; Jehovah, make haste to my help.
Kom kotin kupura ia Main, o kotin dore ia la; Main kom kotin jauaja madan!
14 Let them be ashamed and brought to confusion together that seek after my soul to destroy it; let them be turned backward and confounded that take pleasure in mine adversity;
Me kin majamajan ia, pwen kame ia la, en namenokala o lijela; me men wia jued on ia, en purewei o lijela.
15 Let them be desolate, because of their shame, that say unto me, Aha! Aha!
Ir me kin likelikwirki due ai: “Io, io!” en majak o lijela.
16 Let all those that seek thee be glad and rejoice in thee; let such as love thy salvation say continually, Jehovah be magnified!
Karoj me idok komui, en pereperen o popol. O me pok on omui maur, anjau karoj ren inda: Meid kapinan Ieowa!
17 But I am afflicted and needy: the Lord thinketh upon me. Thou art my help and my deliverer: my God, make no delay.
Pwe nai jamama o luet; a Ieowa kin kotin apwali ia. Komui jauaj pa i o ai jaundor; ai Kot, kom der kotin pwand!
