Saam 16
1 Miktam lok hoi sak koi David ih Saam laa. Aw Sithaw, na pakaa ah, nang khaeah ni ka buep.
Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust.
2 Aw ka hinghaih, nang mah Angraeng khaeah, Nang loe ka Angraeng ni; nang ai ah loe ka hoihhaih tetta doeh ka tawn ai, tiah na naa.
O my soul, thou hast said unto Yhwh, Thou art my Lord: my goodness extendeth not to thee;
3 Toe long ah kaom kaciim kaminawk hoi lensawkhaih hoiah koi kaminawk to ka palung.
But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.
4 Kalah sithaw khaeah caawn kaminawk loe palungsethaih pung aep tih: naek han a paek o ih athii hoiah angbawnhaih ka sah mak ai; pahni hoiah nihcae ih ahminnawk bokhaih lok to ka thui mak ai.
Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another god: their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their names into my lips.
5 Angraeng loe ka toep han koi kai ih qawk hoi boengloeng ah oh: ka toep han koi taham doeh nang pahoe pae boeh.
Yhwh is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.
6 Kahoih koek ahmuen ah nang suek; ue, kahoih qawk to ka toep boeh.
The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.
7 Ka poekhaih paekkung, Angraeng to ka pakoeh han: aqum ah doeh ka plungthin mah na lok hoiah ang thuitaek.
I will bless Yhwh, who hath given me counsel: my reins also instruct me in the night seasons.
8 Angraeng to ka hmaa ah ka suek toepsoep: anih loe ka bantang bangah oh pongah, kang thui mak ai.
I have set Yhwh always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
9 To pongah ka palungthin loe anghoe moe, ka lensawkhaih doeh anghoe: ka taksa doeh oephaih hoiah om tih.
Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope.
10 Ka muithla hae hell thungah na caeh taak mak ai; Ciimcai nangmah ih kami doeh na qongsak mak ai. (Sheol h7585)
For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. (Sheol h7585)
11 Kai hanah hinghaih loklam to na patuek tih: kacung anghoehaih loe na hmaa ah oh, na bantang bangah loe dungzan anghoehaih to oh.
Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
