Psalms 20

1 For the leader. A psalm of David. The Lord answer you in the day of distress, the name of the Jacob’s God protect you,

IEOWA en kotin mangi om kapakap ni ran apwal o; mar en Kot en Iakop en pera uk!

2 sending you help from the temple, out of Zion supporting you.

A en kotin porone dong uk sauas pam sang nan tanpas saraui o kamana uk ada sang nan Sion.

3 All your meal-offerings may he remember, your burnt-offerings look on with favour. (Selah)

A en kotin kupura om mairong karos, o om mairong isis en konkon re a. (Sela)

4 May he grant you your heart’s desire, and bring all your plans to pass.

A en kotiki ong uk, me mongiong om anane, o kotin kapaiada om inong karos.

5 We will shout then for joy at your victory, and rejoice in the name of our God. May the Lord grant your every request.

Se pan ngisingiski omui sauasa kit, o ni mar en atail Kot kit pan kida at plak. Ieowa en kotin kapwaiada om poekipoek karos!

6 Now I am sure that the Lord will help his anointed. From his temple in heaven he will answer by his mighty triumphant right hand.

I ap asaer, me Ieowa kin kotin dorela sapwilim a me keiedier, o a pan mangi i sang nan sapwilim a lang saraui, lim a pali maun kin sauasa kaualap.

7 Some in chariots are strong, some in horses; but our strength is the Lord our God.

Mo kan kin kaporoporeki war o os akan; a kit kin keleki mar en Ieowa atail Kot.

8 They will totter and fall, while we rise and stand firm.

Irail lodier o pupedier, a kit uda o kasinenda.

9 Give victory, Lord, to the king, and answer us when we call.

Maing kom kotin sauasa nanmarki o, o kotin mangi at likwir ong komui!
