< Psalm 24 >

1 [Psalm lal David] Faclu ac koano ma lun LEUM GOD; Faclu ac elos nukewa su muta fac ma pac lun LEUM GOD.
The earth and everything in it belongs to Yahweh; all the people in the world belong to him, too,
2 El tulokinya fin kof lulap ye faclu, Ac oakiya ke acn loal meoa.
because he caused the ground to be above the water, above the water that was deep below the surface of the earth.
3 Su ac fah ku in fanyak nu fineol sin LEUM GOD? Ac su ac ku in utyak nu in acn mutal sel?
Who will be allowed to go up on Zion Hill [in Jerusalem], in order to stand [and worship] in Yahweh’s holy temple?
4 El su nasnas pao ac mutal insia; El tia alu nu ke ma sruloala Ku orek wulela kikiap.
[Only] those whose actions [MTY] and thoughts are pure, who have not worshiped idols, and who do not tell lies when they have solemnly promised [to tell the truth].
5 LEUM GOD, su langoella, El ac fah akinsewowoyal ac fahkak lah wangin mwatal.
(They will be blessed by Yahweh/Yahweh will bless them). When God [judges them], he, who has saved them, will say that they (have done nothing wrong/are without fault).
6 Mwet ouinge pa elos su sokol, Su suk in tuku nu ye mutun God lal Jacob.
They are the ones who approach God, they are the ones who may worship God, the one [we] Israelis worship.
7 Keyak sifowos, O kowos mutunpot; Ac srukak na nu lucng, kowos mutunpot omeet me, Tuh Tokosra lun wolana Elan utyak.
Open up [APO] the [temple] gates in order that our glorious king may enter!
8 Su Tokosra lun wolana? LEUM GOD su ku ac kulana, LEUM GOD su kutangla ke mweun.
[Do you know] who the glorious king is? He is Yahweh, the one who is very strong [DOU]; He is Yahweh, who conquers [all his enemies] in battles!
9 Keyak sifowos, O kowos mutunpot; Ac srukak na nu lucng, kowos mutunpot omeet me, Tuh Tokosra lun wolana Elan utyak.
Open up the [temple] gates in order that our glorious king may enter!
10 Su Tokosra lun wolana? LEUM GOD lun un mwe mweun — El pa Tokosra lun wolana!
[Do you know] who the glorious king is? He is Yahweh almighty; he is our glorious king!
