Isaiah

Mi mekhae lo iu, mi praisem nem blo iu,

Bikos iu duim staka nambawan samting,+

Olketa samting hia iu planim from bifor kam,+

Olketa samting wea iu faithful for duim,+ wea man fit for trustim olketa.

 2 Iu bin duim samting wea mekem wanfala taon for kamap hip blo ston,

Wanfala strong taon for barava distroe.

Taoa blo olketa foreigner hem no wanfala taon moa,

And olketa bae no buildim bak.

 4 Bikos iu kamap wanfala sef ples for man nating,

Wanfala sef ples for poor man wea kasem hard taem,+

Wanfala sef ples for haed lo hem from bigfala wind,

And wanfala shade for haed lo hem from hot sun.+

Taem wea olketa raf man olketa attak, hem olsem strong wind wea bangam wall,

 5 Olsem hot blo sun lo wanfala drae ples,

Iu stopem bigfala noes blo olketa stranger.

Olsem shadow blo cloud wea stopem hot blo sun,

Iu stopem nao singsing blo olketa raf man.

 6 Lo maunten hia,+ Jehovah, komanda blo olketa army, bae redyim for evri pipol

Wanfala feast blo olketa naesfala kaikai,+

Wanfala feast blo olketa gudfala wine,*

Olketa naesfala kaikai wea fulap lo olketa gris insaed olketa bon,

Gudfala wine wea olketa klinim gud.

 7 Lo maunten hia, hem bae aotem* kaleko wea kavarem evri pipol

And samting* wea olketa weavim for kavarem evri nation.

 8 Hem bae swallom daon* dae for olowe,+

And Sovereign Lord, Jehovah bae draem tias from eye blo evriwan.+

Hem bae aotem shame wea pipol blo hem kasem evriwea lo earth,

Bikos diswan nao wanem Jehovah talem.

Hem nao iumi hope lo hem,+

And hem bae sevem iumi.+

10 Bikos hand blo Jehovah bae stap antap lo disfala maunten,+

And bae stepim Moab lo ples blo hem+

Olsem drae grass wea animal step antap lo hip blo siti.

11 Hem bae putim hand blo hem go lo hem*

Olsem wanfala man for swim wea swingim hand blo hem taem hem swim lo sea,

Hem bae daonem praod fasin blo Moab+

From hem savve tumas for muvim hand blo hem.

12 And strongfala taon blo iu, witim olketa hae wall for security,

Hem bae brekem daon.
