1 God sey, “Na my savant wey I give pawa bi dis;

2 E nor go shaut or make nois

En good judgement go dey di whole world forever.
4 E nor go luz hope or start to fear.
E go bring betta judgement kom evriwhere for di world
and pipol for far-far land,

5 God wey kreate heaven kon stresh am out,

6 Na mi wey bi God choose yu to show as I good rish.

And yu go bi lite to guide oda nashons.
7 Yu go open blind pipol eyes,
save doz wey dey darkness and free doz wey dey prison.
8 Na mi bi God and na my name bi dat;
I nor go share my glory with anybody
or let juju follow mi share my praiz.
9 “True-true, di tins wey I bin tok,
don happen naw.
So, I go tell una new tins naw,
even before dem go start to happen.”
Praiz Song
10 Make una sing new song to God!
Make evribody for di world sing praiz God.
Una wey dey drive on-top di sea
and evry oda tins wey E kreate for inside,
make una sing praiz am.
All di far land and doz wey dey der,
make una praiz am.
11 Make all di desert and en towns praiz God;
Make Kedar pipol praiz am!
Make doz wey dey stay for Sela town
shaut dey happy on-top di mountins!
12 Make di pipol wey dey stay far,
give God praiz and glory kon tok as E good rish!
13 God dey go fight war like strong soja;
E dey ready to fight.
E go shaut. Yes!
E go shaut for war kon distroy and win en enemies.
God Promise To Help
14 God sey,
“I kwayet since and I nor ansa my pipol,
but di time to tok, don rish.
Just as woman wey won born dey shaut,
na so too I dey shaut naw.
15 I go distroy di hills and mountins
kon make di grass and trees dry.
I go turn di river to desert
kon dry all di place wey wota from dey flow.
16 I go lead doz wey nor dey si,
pass di road wey dem neva travel pass before.
I go turn dia darkness to lite
kon make rof road smooth for dem.
Dis na wetin I promise and I go do dem;
I nor go fail.
17 But for all of una wey trust juju,
wey dey koll image una gods,
dem go sofa and disgrace una.”
Israel Nor One Learn
18 God sey,
“Una wey nor dey hear word,
make una listin!
Una wey nor dey si,
make una look well-well!
19 E get anybody wey blind pass my savant
or deaf pass di messenja wey I send?
20 Israel pipol, una don si many tins,
but wetin dem mean to una?
Una get ear to take hear,
but wetin una don really hear?”
21 God wont make dem know how E dey judge thru en raitiousness
and how E dey show am.
22 But naw, dem don tif all en pipol tins;
lock dem undagroun kon hide dem for prison.
Dem tif from dem kon karry all dia tins komot
and nobody dey to save dem.
23 Naw, who among una go gri listin to dis tin?
From naw go, una go gri listin with kare?
24 Who sell Israel give di tif dem?
Na God ensef wey wi sin against!
Wi nor dey live awa life just as E wont
or obey wetin E tish us.
25 So E make us si how E dey vex
kon make us sofa di pains.
En vexnashon dey burn like fire for evriwhere for Israel,
but wi nor know wetin bin dey happen
and wi nor still learn anytin from am.
