< Psalms 16 >

1 A Secret Treasure of David. Preserve me, O God, for I did trust in Thee.
MAIN Kot, kom kotin jinjila ia, pwe i liki komui.
2 Thou hast said to Jehovah, 'My Lord Thou [art];' My good [is] not for thine own sake;
Nai potoan on Ieowa: Komui ta ai Kaun, jota eu pai, me i aja, pwe komui eta.
3 For the holy ones who [are] in the land, And the honourable, all my delight [is] in them.
O I kin indan jaraui kan, me kin mi nan jappa: Met akan pwin ijou, me I kin pokepoke jan ni monion i.
4 Multiplied are their griefs, [Who] have hastened backward; I pour not out their libations of blood, Nor do I take up 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 Jehovah [is] the portion of my share, and of my cup, Thou — Thou dost uphold my lot.
A Ieowa ai pai o ai peren; Komui kin kolekol ai jojo.
6 Lines have fallen to me in pleasant places, Yea, a beauteous inheritance [is] for me.
I diaradar ai pwaij en jap kajelel eu, ei pai kajelel eu, me i jojokier.
7 I bless Jehovah who hath counselled me; Also [in] the nights my reins instruct me.
I kapina Ieowa, me kotin kalolekon ia; pil ni pon mudilik i kan kin padaki on ia.
8 I did place Jehovah before me continually, Because — at my right hand I am not moved.
I kin ariri Ieowa anjau karoj, pwe a kotikot ni pali maun i, i ap jota pan luetala.
9 Therefore hath my heart been glad, And my honour doth rejoice, Also my flesh dwelleth confidently:
I me monion i kin peren kida, o nen i kin popol, pwe pil pali uduk ai pan moleilei.
10 For Thou dost not leave my soul to Sheol, Nor givest thy saintly 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 Thou causest me to know the path of life; Fulness of joys [is] with Thy presence, Pleasant things by Thy right hand for ever!
Kom kin kotin kaaja kin ia al maur; peren lapalap mi mon jilan omui, o meid linan ni pali maun en lim omui kokolata.
