< Saam 21 >
1 Katoeng kruek zaehoikung hanah, David ih Saam laa. Aw Angraeng, siangpahrang loe na thacakhaih ah anghoe; na pahlonghaih pongah cae loe kawkruk maw anih anghoe tih!
The king shall joy in your strength, O LORD; and in your salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!
2 A pahni hoiah hnikhaih to na tamuep pae khoep ai moe, a koehhaih palung baktih toengah na paek boeh.
You have given him his heart’s desire, and have not withheld the request of his lips. (Selah)
3 Anih hanah kahoih tahamhoihaih to na paek: a lu nuiah kaciim suitui hoi sak ih lumuek to nang mueksak boeh.
For you prevent him with the blessings of goodness: you set a crown of pure gold on his head.
4 Anih mah hinghaih ang hnik naah, na paek, dungzan hoi dungzan khoek to kasawk hinghaih to na paek boeh.
He asked life of you, and you gave it him, even length of days for ever and ever.
5 Na pahlonghaih rang hoiah anih loe paroeai len: pakoehhaih hoi huham ohhaih to a nuiah na suek pae.
His glory is great in your salvation: honor and majesty have you laid on him.
6 Anih han dungzan tahamhoihaih na paek: na hmaa ah paroeai anghoehaih hoi na koisak.
For you have made him most blessed for ever: you have made him exceeding glad with your countenance.
7 Siangpahrang loe Angraeng to oep moe, Ranui koek tahmenhaih rang hoiah anih loe angthui mak ai.
For the king trusts in the LORD, and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.
8 Na ban mah na misanawk boih to hnu tih, na bantang ban mah nang hnuma kaminawk to hnu tih.
Your hand shall find out all your enemies: your right hand shall find out those that hate you.
9 Palung na phui naah nihcae to hmai kamngaeh omthuh baktiah na ohsak: Angraeng mah nihcae to palungphuihaih hoiah paaeh tih, nihcae to hmai mah kang tih.
You shall make them as a fiery oven in the time of your anger: the LORD shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them.
10 Nihcae ih athaih to long hoiah nang hmaasak ueloe, kaminawk salak hoiah nihcae ih caanawk to nam rosak tih.
Their fruit shall you destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.
11 Nihcae loe na nuiah kasae sak han ih pacaeng o moe, kahoih ai hmuen to a poek o, toe nihcae mah sah o thai ai.
For they intended evil against you: they imagined a mischievous device, which they are not able to perform.
12 To pongah kalii to na nueng thuih moe, nihcae mikhmai ah na patoep naah, nihcae to hnukbang ah nam laemsak tih.
Therefore shall you make them turn their back, when you shall make ready your arrows on your strings against the face of them.
13 Aw Angraeng, na thacakhaih hoiah nang pakoehhaih to om nasoe; na thacakhaih to laasakhaih hoiah kang saphaw o han.
Be you exalted, LORD, in your own strength: so will we sing and praise your power.
