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.
To the Chief Musician. A Melody of David. The heavens, are telling the glory of GOD, And, the work of his hands, the expanse is declaring;
2 Nito pacoeng nito lokthuih o moe, qumto pacoeng qumto palunghahaih to amtueng o sak.
Day, unto day, doth pour forth speech, and, night, unto night, doth breathe out knowledge.
3 Lokthuihaih hoi lokpaehhaih to om ai; kawbaktih ahmuen ah doeh nihcae ih lok thaih han om ai.
There is no speech, and there are no words, —Unheard is their voice!
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,
[Yet] through all the earth, hath gone forth their voice, —and, to the end of the world, their sayings, —For the sun, hath he set up a tent therein;
5 ni loe impui thung hoi tacawt zu la thendoeng baktiah oh, angnoekhaih ahmuen ah anghoehaih hoi kacawn thacak kami hoiah anghmong.
And, he, is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, he rejoiceth as a hero to run a race:
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.
From one end of the heavens, is his going forth, and, his circuit, to the other end thereof—and, nothing, is hid from his glowing 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, law of Yahweh, is complete, Bringing back the soul, The, testimony of Yahweh, is confirmed, Making wise the simple;
8 Angraeng thuitaekhaih loknawk loe toeng moe, palungthin to anghoesak; Angraeng ih kaaloknawk loe ciim moe, mik to amtuengsak.
The precepts of Yahweh, are right, Rejoicing the heart, The, commandment of Yahweh, 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, reverence of Yahweh, is clean, Enduring evermore, —The, decisions of Yahweh, are faithful, They are 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 desirable, than gold, yea than much fine gold, Sweeter, also than honey, or than droppings from the comb.
11 To baktih hmuennawk hoiah na tamnanawk to acoehaih na paek, daan pazuihaih loe paroeai kalen tangqum to oh.
Even thine own servant, taketh warning by them, In the keeping of them, great is the reward.
12 Mi maw a sakpazaehaih panoek thaih? Kamtueng ai sakpazaehaih thung hoiah kai na ciimsak ah.
Mistakes, who perceiveth? From things that are hidden, acquit me:
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.
Even from the presumptuous, keep back thy servant, May they not have dominion over me, Then, shall I be blameless, and shall be acquitted from 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.
The words of my mouth, and the soft utterance of my heart, shall come with acceptance, before thee, O Yahweh, my Rock and my Redeemer!
