< Psalms 16 >

1 A Poem by David. Preserve me, God, for I take refuge in you.
MAIN Kot, kom kotin jinjila ia, pwe i liki komui.
2 My soul, you have said to the LORD, “You are my Lord. Apart from you I have no good thing.”
Nai potoan on Ieowa: Komui ta ai Kaun, jota eu pai, me i aja, pwe komui eta.
3 As for the saints who are in the earth, they are the excellent ones in whom is all my delight.
O I kin indan jaraui kan, me kin mi nan jappa: Met akan pwin ijou, me I kin pokepoke jan ni monion i.
4 Their sorrows shall be multiplied who give gifts to another god. Their drink offerings of blood I will not offer, nor take their names on my lips.
A irail me kin idedauen amen, pan lodi on apwal toto. I jota mauki arail mairon, me doleki nta, de mar arail I jota pan inda.
5 The LORD assigned my portion and my cup. You made my lot secure.
A Ieowa ai pai o ai peren; Komui kin kolekol ai jojo.
6 The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places. Yes, I have a good inheritance.
I diaradar ai pwaij en jap kajelel eu, ei pai kajelel eu, me i jojokier.
7 I will bless the LORD, who has given me counsel. Yes, my heart instructs me in the night seasons.
I kapina Ieowa, me kotin kalolekon ia; pil ni pon mudilik i kan kin padaki on ia.
8 I have set the LORD always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
I kin ariri Ieowa anjau karoj, pwe a kotikot ni pali maun i, i ap jota pan luetala.
9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my tongue rejoices. My body shall also dwell in safety.
I me monion i kin peren kida, o nen i kin popol, pwe pil pali uduk ai pan moleilei.
10 For you will not leave my soul in Sheol, neither will you allow your holy one to see corruption. (Sheol h7585)
Pwe kom jota pan kotin mauki, nen i en mimieta nan wajan mela, o kom jota pan mueid on, me japwilim omui jaraui men pan mor pajan. (Sheol h7585)
11 You will show me the path of life. In your presence is fullness of joy. In your right hand there are pleasures forever more.
Kom kin kotin kaaja kin ia al maur; peren lapalap mi mon jilan omui, o meid linan ni pali maun en lim omui kokolata.
