For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. The king rejoices in your strength, LORD! How greatly he rejoices in your salvation!
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 meet him with the blessings of goodness. You set a crown of fine 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 to him, even length of days forever 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. You lay honour and majesty on him.
6 Anih han dungzan tahamhoihaih na paek: na hmaa ah paroeai anghoehaih hoi na koisak.
For you make him most blessed forever. You make him glad with joy in your presence.
7 Siangpahrang loe Angraeng to oep moe, Ranui koek tahmenhaih rang hoiah anih loe angthui mak ai.
For the king trusts in the LORD. Through the loving kindness 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 will find out all of your enemies. Your right hand will find out those who 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 will make them as a fiery furnace in the time of your anger. The LORD will swallow them up in his wrath. 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.
You will destroy their descendants from the earth, their posterity from amongst 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 plotted evil against you which cannot succeed.
12 To pongah kalii to na nueng thuih moe, nihcae mikhmai ah na patoep naah, nihcae to hnukbang ah nam laemsak tih.
For you will make them turn their back, when you aim drawn bows at their face.
13 Aw Angraeng, na thacakhaih hoiah nang pakoehhaih to om nasoe; na thacakhaih to laasakhaih hoiah kang saphaw o han.
Be exalted, LORD, in your strength, so we will sing and praise your power.
