1 David ih Saam m laa. Aw ka hinghaih, Angraeng to tahamhoihaih paek ah; kai ih takoh thungah kaomnawk boih, anih ih ciimcai ahmin to pakoeh oh.
Of David. Give praise to the Lord, O my soul; let everything in me give praise to his holy name.
2 Aw ka hinghaih, Angraeng to tahamhoihaih paek ah, ang paek ih kahoih hmuennawk boih to pahnet hmah;
Give praise to the Lord, O my soul; let not all his blessings go from your memory.
3 Anih mah ni na zaehaihnawk to tahmen moe, na nathaihnawk boih to hoihsak,
He has forgiveness for all your sins; he takes away all your diseases;
4 amrohaih thung hoiah na hinghaih to akrang moe, amlunghaih hoi a palungnathaih hoiah na lu to ang khuk pae,
He keeps back your life from destruction, crowning you with mercy and grace.
5 na tha oh lihaih to tahmu baktiah angthasak hanah, kahoih hmuen hoiah na koehhaih to akoepsak.
He makes your mouth full of good things, so that your strength is made new again like the eagle's.
6 Angraeng loe pacaekthlaekhaih tongh kaminawk to katoeng ah lokcaek.
The Lord gives decisions in righteousness for all who are in trouble.
7 Mosi khaeah angmah ih loklam to panoeksak moe, Israel caanawk khaeah a sak ih hmuennawk to panoeksak.
He gave knowledge of his way to Moses, and made his acts clear to the children of Israel.
8 Angraeng loe palungnathaih hoi amlunghaih to tawnh, palung sawk, anih loe palungnathaih hoiah koi.
The Lord is kind and full of pity, not quickly made angry, but ever ready to have mercy.
9 Anih loe zaehaih net poe mak ai; palung doeh phui poe mak ai.
His feeling will no longer be bitter; he will not keep his wrath for ever.
10 Anih loe aicae zaehaih baktiah lokcaek ai; a sakpazae o haih baktiah doeh pathok ai.
He has not given us the punishment for our sins, or the reward of our wrongdoing.
11 Van loe long pongah sang kue baktih toengah, anih zii kaminawk hanah anih palungnathaih loe len parai.
For as the heaven is high over the earth, so great is his mercy to his worshippers.
12 Ni angyae hoi niduem loe angthla parai baktih toengah, aicae zaehaih to kangthla ah ang takhoe pae ving boeh.
As far as the east is from the west, so far has he put our sins from us.
13 Ampa mah a caanawk tahmen baktih toengah, anih zii kaminawk loe Angraeng mah tahmen.
As a father has pity on his children, so the Lord has pity on his worshippers.
14 Aicae hae kawbangah maw a sak, tito anih mah panoek; aicae loe maiphu ah ni a oh o, tiah anih mah panoek.
For he has knowledge of our feeble frame; he sees that we are only dust.
15 Kami hinghaih aninawk loe qam baktih, lawk ih apawk baktiah ni oh.
As for man, his days are as grass: his beautiful growth is like the flower of the field.
16 Takhi song naah apawk loe anghmat boih, a ohhaih ahmuen mataeng doeh panoek thai ai boeh.
The wind goes over it and it is gone; and its place sees it no longer.
17 Toe anih zithaih tawn kaminawk khaeah loe, Angraeng amlunghaih to dungzan hoi dungzan khoek to oh, a toenghaih loe a caanawk ih a caanawk patoeng khoek to oh,
But the mercy of the Lord is eternal for his worshippers, and their children's children will see his righteousness;
18 a lokmaihaih aek ai kaminawk hoiah a paek ih loknawk pazui han panoek kaminawk loe to tiah om o tih.
If they keep his agreement, and have his laws in mind to do them.
19 Angraeng loe angmah ih angraeng tangkhang to van ah caksak moe, a ukhaih prae mah pazawk boih.
The Lord has made ready his high seat in the heavens; his kingdom is ruling over all.
20 Thacak moe, a thuih ih lok baktiah kasah, nangcae angmah ih vankaminawk, Angraeng to tahamhoihaih paek oh.
Give praise to the Lord, you his angels, who are great in strength, doing his orders, and waiting for his voice.
21 Anih koehhaih kasah, a toksah kaminawk boih, anih ih misatuh kaminawk boih, Angraeng to tahamhoihaih paek oh.
Give praise to the Lord, all you his armies; and you his servants who do his pleasure.
22 A ukhaih prae thung ih ahmuen kruekah kaom a toksah kaminawk, Angraeng to tahamhoihaih paek oh; Aw ka hinghaih, Angraeng to tahamhoihaih paek ah.
Give praise to the Lord, all his works, in all places under his rule: give praise to the Lord, O my soul.
