Saam 22
1 Katoeng kruek zaehoikung han oihaih loe, akhawnbang ih tasuk tala. David ih Saam laa. Ka Sithaw, ka Sithaw, tipongah nang caeh taak ving loe? Kai nang bomh ai, tikhoe ka hanghaih lok pathim ai ah kangthla ah na oh ving loe?
“For the leader of the music. To the tune of “The hind of the morning.” A psalm of David.” My God, my God! why hast thou forsaken me? Why so far from mine aid, and from the words of my cry?
2 Aw ka Angraeng, khodai ah ka hangh, toe nang pathim ai; khoving ah doeh kang hngai duem thai ai.
O my God! I cry during the day, but thou hearest not; In the night also, but I have no rest.
3 Toe aw nang loe na ciim, nang loe Israel kaminawk saphawhaih ah na oh.
And yet thou art holy, Dwelling amid the praises of Israel!
4 Kam panawk mah nang ni oep o: nang ang oep o pongah, nihcae to na pahlong.
Our fathers trusted in thee; They trusted, and thou didst save them.
5 Nang khaeah a hang o naah, nihcae to na pahlong; nang ang oep o pongah, azathaih tongh o ai.
They called upon thee, and were delivered; They trusted in thee, and were not put to shame.
6 Kai loe kami na ai, sadong ah ni ka oh; minawk mah kasaethuih moe, hnaphnae han koi ah ni ka oh.
But I am a worm, and not a man; The reproach of men, and the scorn of the people.
7 Kai hnu kaminawk boih mah ang patoek o moe, ang pahnuih o thuih: pahni ang baek o thuih moe, lu ang haek o thuih,
All who see me scoff at me; They open wide the lips; they shake the head.
8 anih loe Angraeng oephaih tawnh na ai maw, Angraeng mah pahlong nasoe khae: anih ih mikcuk naakrak ah om nahaeloe, anih mah pahlong nasoe khae, tiah a thuih o.
“He trusted in the LORD, let him help him; Let him deliver him, since he delighted in him!”
9 Toe kam no zok thung hoiah nang taprok moe, tahnu ka naek naah kamongah nang ohsak.
Surely thou art he that didst bring me into the world; Thou didst make me lie secure upon my mother's breast!
10 Zok thung hoiah boeh ni nang khaeah kang tathlang boeh, nang loe kam no zok thung hoiah ka Sithaw ah na oh boeh.
Upon thee have I cast myself from my birth; Thou hast been my God from my earliest breath!
11 Kangthla ah na om taak hmah; raihaih mah ang phak thuih tom boeh; bomkung mi doeh om ai.
Oh, be not far from me, for trouble is near; For there is none to help!
12 Maitaw taenawk mah ang takui o khoep; thacak Bashan ih maitaw taenawk mah ang ven o khoep boeh.
Many bulls surround me; Strong bulls of Bashan close me in on every side.
13 Hanghaih hoi moi kaek kaipui baktiah, nihcae mah pakha ang angh o thuih.
They open their mouths wide against me, Like a ravening and roaring lion.
14 Tui baktiah ang kraih o moe, ka huhnawk doeh angkhring boih boeh: ka palungthin loe samdai baktiah oh moe, ka palung thungah amnaeng boih boeh.
I am poured out like water, And all my bones are out of joint; My heart is become like wax; It melteth in my bosom.
15 Ka thacakhaih loe laom koi baktiah oh, ka palai doeh akam huh hoiah angbet caeng boeh; kai hae duekhaih maiphu thungah nang zaeh tathuk boeh.
My strength is dried up like an earthen vessel, And my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; Thou hast brought me to the dust of death!
16 Kai loe uinawk mah ang takui o khoep: nawnto amkhueng kasae kaminawk mah ang ven o khoep boeh: ka ban hoi ka khoknawk to ang takhing o.
For dogs have surrounded me; Bands of evil-doers have encompassed me, —Like lions my hands and my feet.
17 Kai ih ahuhnawk loe kroek thai boih han koiah ni oh boeh: nihcae mah padaenghaih hoiah ang khet o.
I can count all my bones; They gaze, and feast their eyes upon me.
18 Nihcae mah ka khukbuennawk to amzet o moe, kai ih laihaw lak hanah taham khethaih phoisa to a vah o.
They divide my garments among them, And for my vesture they cast lots.
19 Toe, Aw Angraeng, kangthla ah na om taak hmah: Aw ka thacakhaih, kai abomh han karangah angzo ah.
But be not thou far from me, O LORD! O my strength! make haste to mine aid!
20 Sumsen thung hoiah ka hinghaih pakhra hae pahlongh loe, ka palung koek ih pakhra hae ui thacakhaih thung hoiah pahlong ah.
Deliver my life from the sword; My blood from the power of the dog;
21 Kaipui pakha thung hoiah na pahlongh loe, hmawsaeng kokno ih taki thung hoi nang pahlong hanah ka lok hae nang thaih pae boeh.
Save me from the lion's mouth; Shield me from the horns of the buffaloes!
22 Kam nawkamyanawk khaeah na hmin to ka thuih moe, kaminawk salakah nang kang pakoeh han.
I will proclaim thy name to my brethren; In the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.
23 Angraeng zii kaminawk, anih to pakoeh oh; nangcae Jakob ih caanawk boih, anih to pakoeh oh; nangcae Israel caanawk boih, anih to zii oh!
Praise him, ye worshippers of Jehovah! Extol him, all ye race of Jacob. And fear him, all ye race of Israel!
24 Anih loe patangkhang kami hoi raihaih tong kami to khet patoek ai, panuethaih doeh tawn ai; a mikhmai doeh hawk ving ai, Angmah khaeah hang naah, Anih mah pathim pae.
For he hath not despised nor abhorred the misery of the afflicted. Nor hath he hid his face from him; But when he cried unto him, he heard.
25 Kami rangpui salakah nang to kang pakoeh moe, Anih zii kaminawk hmaa ah lokkamhaih to ka sak han.
My praise shall be of thee in the great congregation; I will pay my vows before them that fear him!
26 Mi tlim ah khosah kaminawk loe caa o ueloe, zok amhah o tih: Angraeng pakrong kaminawk loe, Anih to saphaw o tih: to tiah nahaeloe nangcae ih palungthin dungzan khoek to hing tih.
The afflicted shall eat, and be satisfied; They that seek the LORD shall praise him; Your hearts shall be glad for ever and ever!
27 Long boenghaih ah kaom kaminawk boih mah panoek o ueloe, Angraeng khaeah amlaem o tih: prae kaminawk boih mah na hmaa ah bok o tih.
All the ends of the earth shall remember, and turn to Jehovah; All the families of the nations shall worship before thee!
28 Ukhaih prae loe Angraeng ih ni: anih loe prae kaminawk boih ukkung ah oh.
For the kingdom is Jehovah's; He is the governor of the nations.
29 Long ah kaom angraengnawk boih hoi caaknaek kamtlai ah tawn kaminawk mah nang to bok o tih: a hinghaih pakaa thai ai kaminawk, maiphu thungah caeh kaminawk boih na hmaa ah akuep o tih:
All the rich of the earth shall eat and worship; Before him shall they also bow, who are going down to the dust, Who cannot keep themselves alive.
30 nihcae acaengnawk mah anih ih tok to sah pae o ueloe, angzo han koi a caanawk khaeah Angraeng kawng to thui pae o tih.
The future generation shall serve him; The race which is to come shall hear of Jehovah.
31 Nihcae angzo o ueloe, Anih mah hae hmuen hae sak boeh, tiah Anih toenghaih to tapen han koi kaminawk khaeah taphong o tih.
They shall come, and declare his righteousness; His mighty deeds to the people that shall be born.
