< Psalms 12 >
1 Help, YHWH; for the righteous man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men.
MAING kom kotin sauasa, pwe me lelapok kan malaulaular, o me melel akan me malaulau ren aramas akan.
2 They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: with flattering lips and with a double heart do they speak.
Irail kin lokaia likam, amen amen ong men impa, re lokaiaki lol riapot.
3 YHWH shall cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things:
Ieowa pan kotin usada kil en au karos me lingkaping o lo, me kin lokaia wei ni aklapalap.
4 Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is master over us?
Me kin indinda: Lo atail, me kit pan pwai kida, o kil en au at me kit keleki; is at kaun?
5 For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith YHWH; I will set him in safety from him that puffeth at him.
Ieowa kotin masani: I pan uda, pweki kankangeranger en me luet akan o sangesang en me samama kan: I pan sauasa i, me kin inong iong.
6 The words of YHWH are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
Masan en Ieowa me makelekeleta silper, me kamakelekel kidar nan dal pwel en kisiniai pan pak isu.
7 Thou shalt keep them, O YHWH, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.
Komui Maing, pan kotin pera irail, o sinsila mon di wet kokolata.
8 The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted.
Pwe me sapung kan pan totolar wasa karos, ma aramas sued pukat kin kaunda aramas akan.
