< Psalms 122 >
1 I PEREN kida ar indai on ia: Kitail en kolan nan tanpaj en Ieowa!
A Song of the going up. Of David. I was glad because they said to me, We will go into the house of the Lord.
2 Na at akan pan mi ni wanim en kel en Ierujalem.
At last our feet were inside your doors, O Jerusalem.
3 Ierujalem kanim eu me kakaudar, pwen kanim kelail eu.
O Jerusalem, you are like a town which is well joined together;
4 Waja me kainok kan kin momaitala ia, kainok en Ieowa kan, jaunkadede en Ijrael, pwen kapina mar en Ieowa.
To which the tribes went up, even the tribes of the Lord, for a witness to Israel, to give praise to the name of the Lord.
5 Pwe i waja me mol en kadeik mi ia, mol en kadaudok en Dawid.
For there seats for the judges were placed, even the rulers' seats of the line of David.
6 Poeki on Ierujalem a pai kan! Me kin pok on uk, en paida!
O make prayers for the peace of Jerusalem; may they whose love is given to you do well.
7 Muei mau en mi ni om kel, o pai nan om im akan!
May peace be inside your walls, and wealth in your noble houses.
8 I pan kapakapa kin uk pweki ri ai o kompoke pai kan.
Because of my brothers and friends, I will now say, Let peace be with you.
9 I pan rapaki on uk me mau melel, pweki tanpaj en Ieowa at Kot.
Because of the house of the Lord our God, I will be working for your good.
