< Psalms 58 >

1 To the chief Musician. 'Destroy not.' Of David. Michtam. Is righteousness indeed silent? Do ye speak it? Do ye judge with equity, ye sons of men?
IADUEN komail lotong, pwe komail sota men lokaia me pung, o komail sota men kapung nin tiak inen, komail aramas akan?
2 Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh out the violence of your hands in the earth.
Melel, komail kin wia me sapung nan mongiong o, o nan sap o komail kin kelail ong wiada me sued.
3 The wicked go astray from the womb; they err as soon as they are born, speaking lies.
Me doo sang Kot akan me sapung sang pon kapan in ar akan; me likam kan kin sansalong sili sang nan kaped en in ar akan.
4 Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: [they are] like the deaf adder which stoppeth her ear;
Ar lingarangar rasong lingarangar en serpent amen, rasong serpent salongepon, me penala salong a,
5 Which doth not hearken to the voice of enchanters, of one charming ever so wisely.
Pwen der rong ngil en saunwun ani o kati ani men, me kadek wunani.
6 O God, break their teeth in their mouth; break out the great teeth of the young lions, O Jehovah.
Maing Kot, kom kotin katip pasang ngi nan au arail; Maing Ieowa, kom kotin kawela ngi en laien pulepul akan.
7 Let them melt away as waters that flow off; when he aimeth his arrows, let them be as blunted:
Kom kotin kawe ir ala dueta pil me kin pwilipwili wei. Ma a kaonopada a kanangan kasik katieu, re kin tip pasang.
8 Let them be as a snail that melteth as it passeth away; [like] the untimely birth of a woman, let them not see the sun.
Re pan soredi dueta kamadel amen kin mong pena; re sota pan kilang katipin dueta seri amen, me sota dar pungi.
9 Before your pots feel the thorns, green or burning, — they shall be whirled away.
Mon omail ainpot pan pam tui, a pan kotin sipet wei ni a ongiong.
10 The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance; he shall wash his footsteps in the blood of the wicked:
Me pung o pan peren kida a lao kilang depuk ong ir, o a pan widen nä a nan ntan me doo sang Kot o.
11 And men shall say, Verily there is fruit for the righteous; verily there is a God that judgeth in the earth.
Aramas akan ap pan inda: Me pung kan pan tungole kating; pwe Kot eta saunkadeik nin sappa.
