World English Bible
Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1I am the man who has seen affliction by the rod of his wrath.
1Nga pa sie su pula tari kalyeiyuk sin God.
2He has led me and caused me to walk in darkness, and not in light.
2El pwenyu ac sap nga in som nu yen lohsr matoltol.
3Surely he turns his hand against me again and again all day long.
3El sringilyu na sringilyu ke sringsring na upa.
4He has made my flesh and my skin old. He has broken my bones.
4El kanteya monuk ac kinet keik oan mangelik, ac el koteya sri keik.
5He has built against me, and surrounded me with bitterness and hardship.
5El kuhlusyuyak ke mwe keok ac fosrnga lulap.
6He has made me dwell in dark places, as those who have been long dead.
6El patokyula in muta in acn na lohsrlosr ac foulin ma misa oan we.
7He has walled me about, so that I can’t go out. He has made my chain heavy.
7El kapriyuwi ke sein; nga sie mwet kapir su wangin finsrak la in kaingla.
8Yes, when I cry, and call for help, he shuts out my prayer.
8Nga wowoyak nu lucng in suk kasru, tusruktu God El tia lungse porongeyu.
9He has walled up my ways with cut stone. He has made my paths crooked.
9Nga tukulkul ke nga fahsr, ac pot eot uh kosreyula yen nukewa nga for nu we.
10He is to me as a bear lying in wait, as a lion in hiding.
10El kasrikiyu oana soko bear; el sroma nu fuk oana soko lion.
11He has turned away my path, and pulled me in pieces. He has made me desolate.
11El ukweyuyak liki inkanek uh, seseya monuk nu ke ip srisrik, na El som likiyu.
12He has bent his bow, and set me as a mark for the arrow.
12El amakinya mwe pisr natul ah, ac oru tuh in nga pa El akola in pisrik uh.
13He has caused the shafts of his quiver to enter into my kidneys.
13El pusrukma sukan pisr natul, na liksreni tilyang nu in monuk.
14I have become a derision to all my people, and their song all day long.
14Mwet uh isrunyu len nufon se; nga mwe tafunkas nu selos nukewa.
15He has filled me with bitterness. He has stuffed me with wormwood.
15Mwe keok upa mukena pa El ase tuh in mwe mongo nak ac ma nimuk.
16He has also broken my teeth with gravel. He has covered me with ashes.
16El ilya mutuk infohk uh, ac kotalik wihsik fin eot uh.
17You have removed my soul far away from peace. I forgot prosperity.
17Nga tila esam lah mea kalmen misla ku engan uh.
18I said, “My strength has perished, along with my expectation from the LORD.”
18Tiana loes pacl lula ke moul luk; wanginla finsrak luk in LEUM GOD .
19Remember my affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the bitterness.
19Nunak luk ke waiok luk ac ke wangin acn in muta luk uh, oana sie pwasin na mwen.
20My soul still remembers them, and is bowed down within me.
20Nga tia tui in nunku kac, ac ngunik toasrlana.
21This I recall to my mind; therefore I have hope.
21Tusruktu finsrak luk sifilpa foloko ke nga esamak ma se inge:
22It is because of the LORD’s loving kindnesses that we are not consumed, because his mercies don’t fail.
22Lungse kawil ac pakoten lun LEUM GOD uh tiana wanginla;
23They are new every morning. Great is your faithfulness.
23Aksasuyeyuk ke lotutang nukewa, ac arulana oaru oana takak lun faht uh ke len nukewa.
24“The LORD is my portion,” says my soul. “Therefore I will hope in him.”
24LEUM GOD mukena pa oasr yuruk uh; ke ma inge El na pa mwe finsrak luk.
25The LORD is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him.
25LEUM GOD El wo nu sin mwet nukewa su lulalfongi in El.
26It is good that a man should hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.
26Ke ma inge, wo tuh kut in mongfisrasr in tupan molela lal —
27It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth.
27Oayapa wo kut in akpahye kut in mongfisrasr ke pacl kut fusr uh.
28Let him sit alone and keep silence, because he has laid it on him.
28In pacl kut keok uh, kut enenu in mukena muta misla ac muteng.
29Let him put his mouth in the dust, if it is so that there may be hope.
29Kut enenu in pasrla nwe ten ac eiskutyang nu sel, tuh sahp srakna oasr finsrak.
30Let him give his cheek to him who strikes him. Let him be filled full of reproach.
30Finne puopo ac akkolukyeyuk kut, enenu kut in mislana.
31For the Lord will not cast off forever.
31Leum El pakoten ac El fah tia siskutlana nwe tok.
32For though he causes grief, yet he will have compassion according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.
32Sahp El ac akasorye kut, tusruktu lungse lal nu sesr pwayena ac ku na.
33For he does not afflict willingly, nor grieve the children of men.
33El tia insewowo in oru kut in asor ku waiok.
34To crush under foot all the prisoners of the earth,
34Leum El etu pacl ngunasr akkeokyeyuk in presin uh;
35to turn away the right of a man before the face of the Most High,
35El etu ke pacl ma mwet uh tia ase suwohs lasr ma El oakiya nu sesr.
36to subvert a man in his cause, the Lord doesn’t approve.
36Ke pacl ma nununku suwohs uh tia orek, El etu.
37Who is he who says, and it comes to pass, when the Lord doesn’t command it?
37Ma lungse lun Leum mukena pa orek pacl nukewa.
38Doesn’t evil and good come out of the mouth of the Most High?
38Ma wo ac ma koluk kewana ac orekla fal nu ke sap lal.
39Why should a living man complain, a man for the punishment of his sins?
39Efu ku kut in torkaskas ke kalyeiyuk kut ke ma koluk lasr?
40Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the LORD.
40Lela kut in tuni ouiyen orekma lasr ac folokla nu yurin LEUM GOD .
41Let’s lift up our heart with our hands to God in the heavens.
41Lela kut in ikasla insiasr nu sin God inkusrao, ac pre ac fahk,
42“We have transgressed and have rebelled. You have not pardoned.
42“Kut orekma koluk ac lain kom, O LEUM GOD , ac kom tiana nunak munas nu sesr.
43“You have covered us with anger and pursued us. You have killed. You have not pitied.
43“Kom ukwe kut ac unikuti; kasrkusrak lom tuh kosrala pakoten lom,
44You have covered yourself with a cloud, so that no prayer can pass through.
44Ke sie pukunyeng su arulana matoltol, oru pre lasr tia ku in sasla nu yurum.
45You have made us an off-scouring and refuse in the middle of the peoples.
45Kom orekut oana acn in sisi kutkut lun faclu.
46“All our enemies have opened their mouth wide against us.
46“Angonyuk kut ac aksruksrukiyuk kut sin mwet lokoalok lasr nukewa.
47Terror and the pit have come on us, devastation and destruction.”
47Ma lasr nukewa kunausyukla ac sikiyukla; kut muta in sensen ac sangeng.
48My eye runs down with streams of water, for the destruction of the daughter of my people.
48Sroninmutuk soror oana soko infacl ke sripen kunausyukla mwet luk.
49My eye pours down and doesn’t cease, without any intermission,
49“Sroninmutuk ac fah kahkkakla ac tia tui
50until the LORD looks down, and sees from heaven.
50Nwe ke LEUM GOD El ngeti inkusrao me ac liye kut.
51My eye affects my soul, because of all the daughters of my city.
51Insiuk arulana asor ke nga liye ma sikyak nu sin mutan in siti uh.
52They have chased me relentlessly like a bird, those who are my enemies without cause.
52“Srifusryuki nga oana sie won sin mwet lokoalok, su wanginna sripa lalos in srungayu.
53They have cut off my life in the dungeon, and have cast a stone on me.
53Nga moul na ac elos sisyuyang nu in luf se, ac kaliya mutun luf uh ke sie eot lulap.
54Waters flowed over my head. I said, “I am cut off.”
54Kof uh mutawauk in afinyula, ac nga nunku mu misa apkuranme.
55I called on your name, LORD, out of the lowest dungeon.
55“Nga wowoyak nu sum, O LEUM GOD , liki kapin luf sac me,
56You heard my voice: “Don’t hide your ear from my sighing, and my cry.”
56Ac ke nga kwafe sum in lohng tung luk, kom porongeyu.
57You came near in the day that I called on you. You said, “Don’t be afraid.”
57Kom topukyu ac fahk nu sik nga in tia sangeng.
58Lord, you have pleaded the causes of my soul. You have redeemed my life.
58“O Leum, kom tuku in loangeyu, ac kom molela moul luk.
59LORD, you have seen my wrong. Judge my cause.
59Oru nununku lom an in wo nu sik; kom etu ma sufal ma orek lainyu inge.
60You have seen all their vengeance and all their plans against me.
60Kom etu luman srunga lun mwet lokoalok luk nu sik, ac pwapa koluk elos oru in lainyu.
61You have heard their reproach, LORD, and all their plans against me,
61“Kom lohng ke elos fahk kas in purakak lainyu, O LEUM GOD ; kom etu pwapa koluk nukewa lalos.
62the lips of those that rose up against me, and their plots against me all day long.
62Elos kaskas keik ac oru akoo koluk lalos len nufon.
63You see their sitting down and their rising up. I am their song.
63Elos isrunyu ke lotutang lac nwe ke fongeni.
64You will pay them back, LORD, according to the work of their hands.
64“O LEUM GOD , kalyaelos ke ma elos oru inge.
65You will give them hardness of heart, your curse to them.
65Oru sie selnga na upa nu faclos, ac oru nunkalos in arulana fosrngala.
66You will pursue them in anger, and destroy them from under the heavens of the LORD.
66Sokolosyak ac sukelosla liki fin faclu.”
