Psalms 129

1 [A Song of Ascents.] Many times they have afflicted me from my youth up. Let Israel now say,

ISRAEL en inda: Re katoutou ia melel sang ni ai tikitik lel met pak toto.

2 many times they have afflicted me from my youth up, yet they have not prevailed against me.

Pan pak toto re katoutou ia melel sang ni ai tikitik lel met; ari so, re sota kak kaloe ia di.

3 The plowers plowed on my back. They made their furrows long.

Men sapasap weirada pon tinsau ai, wiadar warawar reirei.

4 The LORD is righteous. He has cut apart the cords of the wicked.

A Ieowa me pung, a kotin lepuk pasanger sal en me doo sang Kot akan.

5 Let them be disappointed and turned backward, all those who hate Zion.

Karos me kin tataki Sion, en sarodi o tangwei!

6 Let them be as the grass on the housetops, which withers before it grows up;

Ren rasong rä pon os en im o, me kin mong pena mon a pan ususda!

7 with which the reaper doesn't fill his hand, nor he who binds sheaves, his bosom.

Me sota kin kadirela kumut en pa en saundolung, de pa en me kin pir pena kap akan.

8 Neither do those who go by say, "The blessing of the LORD be on you. We bless you in the name of the LORD."

Pwe me kin daulul wasa o, ren der inda: Kot en kotin kupura maui komail! Kit kapai komail da ni mar en Ieowa!
