Saam 19
1 Katoeng kruek zaehoikung hanah, David ih saam laa. Vannnawk mah Sithaw lensawkhaih to taphong o, long ranui ih van mah a toksakhaih to amtuengsak.
[For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.] The heavens declare the glory of God. The expanse shows his handiwork.
2 Nito pacoeng nito lokthuih o moe, qumto pacoeng qumto palunghahaih to amtueng o sak.
Day after day they pour forth speech, and night after night they display knowledge.
3 Lokthuihaih hoi lokpaehhaih to om ai; kawbaktih ahmuen ah doeh nihcae ih lok thaih han om ai.
There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.
4 Toe nihcae ih lok loe longpum ah phak, a loknawk loe long boenghaih khoek to amthang boeh. Van ah ni ohhaih kahni im to a sak pae,
Their voice has gone out to all the earth, their words to the farthest part of the world. In them he has set a tent for the sun,
5 ni loe impui thung hoi tacawt zu la thendoeng baktiah oh, angnoekhaih ahmuen ah anghoehaih hoi kacawn thacak kami hoiah anghmong.
which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, like a strong man rejoicing to run his course.
6 Anih loe van boenghaih hoiah tacawt moe, van boenghaih khoek to takui: ni aengh mah phak han ai ah kanghawk hmuen tidoeh om ai.
His going forth is from the end of the heavens, his circuit to its ends; There is nothing hidden from its heat.
7 Angraeng ih kaalok loe acung moe, muithla to amkhraisak: Angraeng mah thuih ih lok loe oepthoh moe, palungha ai kaminawk to palunghasak.
The LORD's Law is perfect, restoring the soul. The LORD's testimony is sure, making wise the simple.
8 Angraeng thuitaekhaih loknawk loe toeng moe, palungthin to anghoesak; Angraeng ih kaaloknawk loe ciim moe, mik to amtuengsak.
The LORD's precepts are right, rejoicing the heart. The LORD's commandment is pure, enlightening the eyes.
9 Angraeng zithaih loe ciim moe, dungzan khoek to cak poe: Angraeng lok takroekhaih loe amsoem moe, toeng boih.
The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever. The LORD's ordinances are true, and righteous altogether.
10 Sui pongah atho nat, ue, kaciim suitui pongah doeh koeh han oh kue: khoitui pongah luep moe, khoi lutui pongah doeh luep kue.
More to be desired are they than gold, yes, than much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and the extract of the honeycomb.
11 To baktih hmuennawk hoiah na tamnanawk to acoehaih na paek, daan pazuihaih loe paroeai kalen tangqum to oh.
Moreover by them is your servant warned. In keeping them there is great reward.
12 Mi maw a sakpazaehaih panoek thaih? Kamtueng ai sakpazaehaih thung hoiah kai na ciimsak ah.
Who can discern his errors? Forgive me from hidden errors.
13 Na tamna mah zaehaih sak parui poe han ai ah na pakaa ah; to zaehaihnawk mah kai na uk hmah nasoe: to tiah ni katoeng ah ka om ueloe, kalen parai zaehaih thung hoiah ka loih tih.
Keep back your servant also from presumptuous sins. Let them not have dominion over me. Then I will be upright. I will be blameless and innocent of great transgression.
14 Aw Angraeng, ka thacakhaih hoi kai akrangkung, ka pakha thung ih loknawk hoi palung thungah ka poek ih hmuennawk loe, na hmaa ah talawk han koi ah om nasoe.
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight always, LORD, my rock and my redeemer.
