< Psalms 58 >

1 For the end. Destroy not: by David, for a memorial. If you do indeed speak righteousness, [then] do you judge rightly, you sons of men.
IADUEN komail loton, pwe komail jota men lokaia me pun, o komail jota men kapun nin tiak inen, komail aramaj akan?
2 For you work iniquities in [your] hearts in the earth: your hands plot unrighteousness.
Melel, komail kin wia me japun nan monion o, o nan jap o komail kin kelail on wiada me jued.
3 Sinners have gone astray from the womb: they go astray from the belly: they speak lies.
Me doo jan Kot akan me japun jan pon kapan in ar akan; me likam kan kin janjalon jili jan nan kaped en in ar akan.
4 Their venom is like [that] of a serpent; as [that] of a deaf asp, and that stops her ears;
Ar linaranar rajon linaranar en jerpent amen, rajon jerpent jalonepon, me penala jalon a.
5 which will not hear the voice of charmers, nor [heed] the charm prepared skillfully by the wise.
Pwen der ron nil en jaunwunani o kati ani men, me kadek wunani.
6 God has crushed their teeth in their mouth: God has broken the cheek-teeth of the lions.
Main Kot, kom kotin katip pajan ni nan au arail; Main Ieowa, kom kotin kawela ni en laien pulepul akan.
7 They shall utterly pass away like water running through: he shall bend his bow till they shall fail.
Kom kotin kawe ir ala dueta pil me kin pwilipwili wei. Ma a kaonopada a kananan kajik katieu, re kin tip pajan.
8 They shall be destroyed as melted wax: the fire has fallen and they have not seen the sun.
Re pan joredi dueta kamedel aman kin mon pena; re jota pan kilan katipin dueta jeri amen, me jota dar puni.
9 Before your thorns feel the white thorn, he shall swallow you up as living, as in his wrath.
Mon omial ainpot pan pam tui, a pan kotin jipet wei ni a onion.
10 The righteous shall rejoice when he sees the vengeance of the ungodly: he shall wash his hands in the blood of the sinner.
Me pun o pan peren kida a lao kilan depuk on ir, o a pan widen na a nana ntan me doo jan Kot o.
11 And a man shall say, Verily then there is a reward for the righteous: verily there is a God that judges them in the earth.
Aramaj akan ap pan inda: Me pun kan pan tunole katin; pwe Kot eta jaunkadeik nin jappa.
