Psalms 12
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
1(12-1) For the Leader; on the Sheminith. A Psalm of David. (12-2) Help, LORD; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men.
1MAI N kom kotin jauaja, pwe me lelapok kan malaulaular, o me melel akan me malaulau ren aramaj akan.
2(12-3) They speak falsehood every one with his neighbour; with flattering lip, and with a double heart, do they speak.
2Irail kin lokaia likam, amen amen o n men impa, re lokaiaki lol riapot.
3(12-4) May the LORD cut off all flattering lips, the tongue that speaketh proud things!
3Ieowa pan kotin ujada kil en au karoj me li n kapi n o lo, me kin lokaia wei ni aklapalap.
4(12-5) Who have said: 'Our tongue will we make mighty; our lips are with us: who is lord over us?'
4Me kin indinda: Lo atail, me kit pan pwai kida, o kil en au at me kit keleki; ij at kaun?
5(12-6) 'For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise', saith the LORD; 'I will set him in safety at whom they puff.'
5Ieowa kotin majani: I pan uda, pweki kanka n era n er en me luet akan o ja n eja n en me jamama kan: I pan jauaja i, me kin ino n io n .
6(12-7) The words of the LORD are pure words, as silver tried in a crucible on the earth, refined seven times.
6Majan en Ieowa me makelekeleta jilper, me kamakelekel kidar nan dal pwel en kijiniai pan pak iju.
7(12-8) Thou wilt keep them, O LORD; Thou wilt preserve us from this generation for ever.
7Komui Mai n , pan kotin pera irail, o jinjila mon di wet kokolata.
8(12-9) The wicked walk on every side, when vileness is exalted among the sons of men.
8Pwe me japu n kan pan totolar waja karoj, ma aramaj jued pukat kin kaunda aramaj akan.
