Psalms 129

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

IJRAEL en inda: Re katoutou ia melel jan 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 jan ni ai tikitik lel met; ari jo, re jota kak kaloe ia di.

3 The ploughers ploughed on my back. They made their furrows long.

Men japajap weirada pon tinjau ai, wiadar warawar reirei.

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

A Ieowa me pun, a kotin lepuk pajaner jal en me doo jan Kot akan.

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

Karoj me kin tataki Jion, en jarodi o tanwei!

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

Ren rajon ra pon oj en im o, me kin mon pena mon a pan ujujda!

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

Me jota kin kadirela kumut en pa en jaundolun, 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 LORD’s name.”

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