Psalms 53

1 ME pweipwei kan kin indinda nan monion arail: Jota Kot. Arail tiak meid jued. Arail japun kan jakanekan. Jota amen mia, me kin wia me mau.

For the end, [a Psalm] of David upon Maeleth, of instruction. The fool has said in his heart, There is no God. They have corrupted [themselves], and become abominable in iniquities: there is none that does good.

2 leowa kin ireron aramaj akan jan nanlan, pwen majani, ma amen mia, me lolekon o rapaki Kot.

God looked down from heaven upon the sons of men, to see if there were any that understood, or sought after God.

3 A ir karoj juedalar, o karoj japunalar, jota me kin wiada me mau, jota amen.

They have all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that does good, there is not even one.

4 Ir karoj me kin wiada me jued, jota arail lolekon, irail, me kin namala nai aramaj akan rajon prot, a re jota kin likwir on Kot.

Will none of the workers of iniquity know, who devour my people as they would eat bread? they have not called upon God. There were they greatly afraid, where there was no fear:

5 Rap majak ni jota karepa, pwe Kot kotin kamueit pajaner kokon en ir, me kin kapil uk pena. Kom kotin kanamenok ir alar, pwe Kot kotin kaje ir ala.

or God has scattered the bones of the men-pleasers; they were ashamed, for God despised them.

6 O i men, jauaj pan Ijrael en kodo jan nan Jion, o Kot en kotin lapwada japwilim a jalidi kan! I me Iakop pan injen mauki o Ijrael pan pereperenki.

Who will bring the salvation of Israel out of Sion? When the Lord turns the captivity of his people, Jacob shall exult, and Israel shall be glad.
