Saam 3
1 A capa Absalom khae hoi cawnh naah tarik ih David ih Saam laa. Aw Angraeng, kai raihaih paek misanawk loe paroeai pop o! Nihcae loe pop o parai pongah, kai hae misa ah ang suek o.
The psalm of David when he fled from the face of his son Absalom. Why, O Lord, are they multiplied that afflict me? many are they who rise up against me.
2 Kaminawk mah, Sithaw mah anih to angsak haih mak ai, tiah ang naa o. (Selah)
Many say to my soul: There is no salvation for him in his God.
3 Toe aw Angraeng, nang loe ka buephaih, ka lensawkhaih ah na oh moe, kai ih lu atoengh tahang kami ah na oh.
But thou, O Lord art my protector, my glory, and the lifter up of my head.
4 Angraeng khaeah tha hoi ka hang naah, anih mah angmah ih kaciim mae nui hoiah ka lok ang pathim. (Selah)
I have cried to the Lord with my voice: and he hath heard me from his holy hill.
5 Kang song moe, ka iih; Angraeng mah ang patawnh pongah, kang thawk let.
I have slept and taken my rest: and I have risen up, because the Lord hath protected me.
6 Kai takui khoep, ka misa sang hatonawk to ka zii mak ai.
I will not fear thousands of the people, surrounding me: arise, O Lord; save me, O my God.
7 Aw Angraeng, angthawk ah; Aw ka Sithaw, na pahlong ah: ka misanawk ih akam huh to nang boh pae moe, Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk ih haa to nam rosak.
For thou hast struck all them who are my adversaries without cause: thou hast broken the teeth of sinners.
8 Pahlonghaih loe Sithaw ih ni; na tahamhoihaih loe nangmah ih kaminawk nuiah om nasoe. (Selah)
Salvation is of the Lord: and thy blessing is upon thy people.
