Psalms 39
1 For the chief musician, for Jeduthun. A psalm of David. I decided, “I will watch what I say so that I do not sin with my tongue. I will muzzle my mouth while in the presence of an evil man.”
NGAI inda: I pan kanai ong al ai kan, pwe i ender wia dip ki lo i. I pan sali pena au ai arain en me sapung o mi re i.
2 I kept silent; I kept back my words even from saying anything good, and my pain grew worse.
I kadukiedier ai lokaia o nenenlar o solar inda duen peren, a ai kalokolok lalaudalar.
3 My heart became hot; when I thought about these things, it burned like a fire. Then finally I spoke.
Mongiong i karakaradar nan kapedi, o ma i pan tamanda mepukat, a rasong kisiniai lulada; i ap lokaia kida lo i.
4 “Yahweh, make me know when will be the end of my life and the extent of my days. Show me how transient I am.
Maing, kotin padaki ong ia, me maur i pan imwisokela, o imwi pan ai ran akan, me i pan samoer.
5 See, you have made my days only the width of my hand, and my lifetime is like nothing before you. Surely every man is a single breath. (Selah)
Mangi, ai ran akan dueta tälap en pa en aramas re omui; o maur i likamata sota meakot mo’mui. Melel aramas, me kin keleki pein i, kin dueta adiniai. (Sela)
6 Surely every man walks about like a shadow. Surely everyone hurries about to accumulate riches although they do not know who will receive them.
Re kin alialu sili rasong mota, o re kin katoutouki pein irail dodok mal. Re kin nanak pena ap sasa, is me pan naineki.
7 Now, Lord, for what am I waiting? You are my only hope.
Ari Maing, is me i en auiaui? I kaporoporeki komui.
8 Rescue me from my sins; do not make me the reproach of fools.
Dore ia la sang dip ai karos, o kom der mueid ong, me pweipwei kan en kaurur kin ia.
9 I am silent and cannot open my mouth, because it is you who has done it.
I pan nenenla o sota sar pasang au ai, pwe kom kotin wiadar.
10 Stop wounding me; I am overwhelmed by the blow of your hand.
Kotin katukiedi omui kaloke ia; pwe ngai dupok kilar ai kalokolok pan lim omui.
11 When you discipline people for sin, you consume the things they desire like a moth; surely all people are nothing but vapor. (Selah)
Ma kom pan kaloke amen pweki dip a, mom a kaselel ap pan suedala likamada man en mot kangala. O meid mal aramas karos! (Sela)
12 Hear my prayer, Yahweh, and listen to me; listen to my weeping! Do not be deaf to me, for I am like a foreigner with you, a refugee like all my ancestors were.
Maing kom kotin ereki ai kapakap, o mangi ai likwir, o der sapaimokid ni ai sangesang, pwe ngai sapwilim omui men kairu o pweledan omui wei men dueta sam ai kan karos.
13 Turn your gaze from me so that I may smile again before I die.”
Kom kotin muei sang ia, pwe i en kelailada, mon ai pan kokowei o solar mia.
