< Psalms 6 >
1 For the music director. To be accompanied by stringed instruments, according to the sheminith. A psalm of David. Lord, please don't condemn me because you're angry with me; please don't punish me because you're angry with me!
MAIiN, kom der kotin kaloke kin ia omui onion, o der kame kin ia omui onion lapala!
2 Have mercy on me, Lord, for I am weak; heal me, Lord, for I am sick to the bone.
Main, kom kotin maki on ia, pwe nai me luet. Main, kom kotin kamau ia la, Main Ieowa, pwe ti kan me luetalar.
3 I'm shaking all over in fear. How long will it be, Lord, before you do something?
Main, kom kotin jaupei don ia, dorela nen i. Kom kotin jauaja ia ni omui kalanan.
4 Turn, Lord, and rescue me! Save me because of your trustworthy love!
Main, kom kotin jaupei don ia, dorela nen i. Kom kotin jauaja ia ni omui kalanan!
5 For no one remembers you when they're dead. Who is able to praise you from the grave? (Sheol )
Pwe murin melar jolar me pan tamanda komui; o ij me pan kapina komui wajan mela? (Sheol )
6 My groaning has exhausted me. Every night I soak my bed with my crying; I drench my couch with my tears.
I pana kida ai janejan jan jautik lel manjan; i kawijoki jokela ai loj pil en maj ai.
7 With all my crying I can hardly see; my eyes grow weak because of the trouble my enemies cause me.
Mom ai juede kilar ai injenjued, o i malar, pweki kamakama jak pai me toto.
8 Leave me alone, all you people who do evil, for the Lord has heard me crying!
Komail aramaj morjued akan karoj kaiwei jan ia, pwe Ieowa kotin mani ai janejan.
9 The Lord has heard me calling out for help; the Lord answers my prayer.
Ieowa kotin mani ai nidinid, o Ieowa kotin manier ai kapakap.
10 All who hate me will be shamefully defeated and terrified; they will run away in disgrace.
Ai imwintiti karoj pan namenokela o majakada melel, re pan tanwei o madan jarodi.
