< Psalms 87 >

1 The city that Yahweh established is on his sacred hill.
A kakaudar mau pon dol jaraui kan.
2 He loves that city, Jerusalem, more than he loves any other city in Israel.
Ieowa kotin kupura wanim en Jion jan wajan kaujon en Iakop karoj.
3 [You people in] [APO] the city that God (owns/lives in), people say wonderful things about your city.
Kajoi kajelel mia duen koe kanim en Kot.
4 [Some of those who know about God are the people of] Egypt and Babylonia, and also [the people of] Philistia and Tyre and Ethiopia; [some day they all] will say, “[Although I was not born in Jerusalem], [because I belong to Yahweh, it is as though] I was born there.”
I pan kajokajoi duen Raap o Papel, me aja ia. Kilan, Pilijta o Tiruj, o pil men Atiopia: Mepukat ipwidier waja o.
5 And concerning Jerusalem, people will say [“It is as though] everyone was born there, and Almighty God will cause that city to remain strong/safe/secure.”
A kajokajoi duen Jion indinda, me jon en aramaj karoj ipwidi waja o, o me Lapalap o pan kotin kamanada i.
6 Yahweh will write a list of [the names of] the people of various groups [who belong to him], and he will say that [he considers them] all to be citizens of Jerusalem.
Ieowa pan kotin wadok, ni a pan kotin kileledi aramaj akan: Mepukat ipwidier waja o.
7 They will all dance and sing, saying, “Jerusalem is the source of all our blessings.”
O ni ar madomadon re pan kauleki: Ai parer karoj mi re om!
