< Psalms 146 >
1 Praise Yahweh! With my whole inner being I will praise Yahweh.
EN i kapina Ieowa!
2 I will praise Yahweh as long as I am alive; I will sing to praise my God for [the rest of] my life.
I pan kapina Ieowa arain ai maur, i pan kauleki pjalm akan on ai Kot arain maur i.
3 [You people], do not trust in your leaders; do not trust humans because they cannot save/rescue you [from your difficulties/problems].
Der kaporoporeki jaupeidi kan, pwe irail aramaj o jota kak jauaja.
4 And when they die, their corpses [decay and] become soil again. After they die, they can no longer do the things that they planned to do.
Pwe nen en aramaj udan a pan kokola, o a pan pur on wiala pwel, i rah ota a jolar kak madamadaua meakot.
5 But those whose helper is the God whom Jacob [worshiped] are happy. The one whom they confidently expect [to help them] is Yahweh, their God.
Meid pai me jauaj parail Kot en Iakop, me kin kaporoporeki Ieowa a Kot.
6 He is the one who created heaven and the earth and the oceans and all [the creatures] that are in them. He always does what he has promised to do.
Me kotin kapikadar lan o jappa, o madau, o audeparail karoj, me kin melel potopot eta.
7 He decides matters fairly for those who are (treated unfairly/oppressed), and he provides food for those who are hungry. He frees those who are in prison.
Me kotin jauaja pun en me lodi on kalokolok mal, me kamana me men manadar. Ieowa kin kotin lapwada me jalidi kan.
8 Yahweh enables those who are blind to see again. He lifts up those who have fallen down. He loves righteous [people].
Ieowa kin kotin kapad pajan maj en me majkun akan. Ieowa kin kotin kainjenemaula me mauk; Ieowa kin kotin pok on me pun kan.
9 Yahweh takes care of those from other countries who live in our land, and he helps widows and orphans. But he gets rid of wicked [people].
Ieowa kin kotin jinjila men wai kan, o jauaja me japoupou o li odi kan, ap kotin kawela al en me doo jan Kot akan.
10 Yahweh will [continue to] be our king forever; you people of Israel, your God will rule forever! Praise Yahweh!
Ieowa iei Nanmarki joutuk, om Kot Jion kokolata. Aleluia!
