Hallelujah. I will thank the Lord with all my heart, in the assembled congregation of his people.

2 Meid laud wiawian Ieowa kan, ir me injenoki, pan dedeki due.

Great are the things that the Lord has done, worthy of study by those who love them.

3 A wiawia kan me pun o linan, o a pun pan duedueta kokolata.

Majestic and glorious is his work, and his righteousness abides forever.

4 A manaman akan men kataman eu. Ieowa me dir en mak o kalanan.

For his marvellous deeds he has won renown; the Lord is gracious and full of compassion.
