The Bible

1

Veih'n diunid ta mee er n'eamagh hoods, O Hiarn: Hiarn, clasht rish my choraa.

Out of the deep have I called unto thee;O Lord: Lord, hear my voice.

2

O lhig da dty chleayshyn geill y choyrt: da coraa m'accan.

O let thine ears consider well: the voice of my complaint.

3

My vees uss, Hiarn, gyere dy ghoaill tastey jeh nyn shaghrynys: O Hiarn, quoi oddyss shassoo fo?

If thou, Lord, wilt be extreme to mark what is done amiss: O Lord, who may abide it?

4

Agh mayrts ta myghin: shen-y-fa bee aggle er ny ghoaill royd.

For there is mercy with thee: therefore shalt thou be feared.

5

Ta mee jeeaghyn son y Chiarn, ta m'annym farkiaght er e hon: ayns e ghoo ta my hreishteil.

I look for the Lord; my soul doth wait for him: in his word is my trust.

6

Ta my chree chea gys y Chiarn: roish arrey yn voghrey, ta mee gra, roish arrey yn voghrey.

My soul looketh for the Lord: more than watchmen look for the morning; yea, more watchmen for the morning

7

O Israel, cur dty hreishteil ayns y Chiarn, son marish y Chiarn ta myghin: as mârishyn ta livrey-ys niartal.

O Israel, trust in the Lord, for with the Lord there is mercy: and with him is plenteous redemption.

8

As livrey-ee eh Israel; veih ooilley e pheccaghyn.

And he shall redeem Israel: from all his sins.
