Saam 33
1 Nangcae katoeng kaminawk, Angraeng ah anghoe oh: katoeng kaminawk loe saphawhaih laasak han krak.
Rejoice, O ye righteous, in the LORD! For praise becometh the upright.
2 Toenghaih hoiah Angraeng to pakoeh oh: aqui hato kaom katoeng tamoi kruek hoiah anih to pakoeh oh.
Praise the LORD with the harp; Sing to him with the ten-stringed psaltery!
3 Anih khaeah laa kangtha to sah oh; mongkah uenghaih hoiah kanawm ah anih to pakoeh oh.
Sing to him a new song; Play skilfully amid the sound of trumpets!
4 Angraeng ih lok loe toeng; anih ih toknawk boih loe toenghaih hoiah ni sak.
For the word of the LORD is right, And all his acts are faithful.
5 Anih loe toenghaih hoiah khokhan moe, kamsoem ah lokcaekhaih to a koeh, long loe Angraeng hoihaih hoiah koi.
He loveth justice and equity; The earth is full of the goodness of the LORD.
6 Vannawk loe Angraeng ih lok hoiah sak moe, van ah kaom hmuennawk boih doeh a pakha thung ih takhi hoiah ni a sak.
By the word of the LORD were the heavens made, And all the hosts of them by the breath of his mouth.
7 Anih mah tuipui ih tuinawk to nawnto acuu moe, kathuk tuipui doeh pakhuenghaih ahmuen ah a suek.
He gathereth the waters of the sea, as a heap; He layeth up the deep in storehouses.
8 Long boih mah Angraeng to zii o nasoe: long kaminawk boih mah anih to khingza o nasoe.
Let all the earth fear the LORD; Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him!
9 Tipongah tih nahaeloe anih loe thuih baktiah angcoengsak; a paek ih lok baktiah ohsak.
For he spake, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast.
10 Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk lokramhaih to anih mah paro pae: kaminawk atimhaih doeh a phraek pae.
The LORD bringeth the devices of the nations to nothing; He frustrateth the designs of kingdoms.
11 Angraeng khokhanhaih loe dungzan khoek to cak, a poekhaih loe angzo han koi caanawk khoek to om poe tih.
The purposes of the LORD stand for ever; The designs of his heart, to all generations.
12 Angmah ih qawktoep hanah a qoih ih kaminawk hoi Sithaw loe Angraeng ni, tiah tapom acaengnawk loe tahamhoih o.
Happy the nation whose God is Jehovah; The people whom he hath chosen for his inheritance.
13 Angraeng mah van hoi khet tathuk naah, kaminawk to hnuk boih.
The LORD looketh down from heaven; He beholdeth all the children of men;
14 A ohhaih ahmuen hoiah khet naah, long ah kaom hmuennawk to panoek boih.
From his dwelling-place he beholdeth all the inhabitants of the earth, —
15 Angraeng mah kami boih hanah poekhaih palungthin to paek; nihcae mah sak ih hmuennawk Angraeng mah panoek boih.
He that formed the hearts of all, And observeth all their works.
16 Kawbaktih siangpahrang doeh kanoih parai misatuh kaminawk mah pahlong ai: thacak kami doeh thacakhaih mah loisak ai.
A king is not saved by the number of his forces, Nor a hero by the greatness of his strength.
17 Hrang mah ngancuemhaih paek thai ai: a thacakhaih mah mi doeh pahlong thai ai.
The horse is a vain thing for safety, Nor can he deliver his master by his great strength.
18 Khenah, Angraeng ih mik loe angmah zithaih tawn kami, a palungnathaih oep kaminawk nuiah oh;
Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him, —Upon them that trust in his goodness;
19 duekhaih thung hoiah nihcae ih pakhra to anih mah pahlong moe, khokhaa naah nihcae hingsak hanah a khetzawn.
To save them from the power of death, And keep them alive in famine.
20 Aicae hinghaih mah Angraeng to zing: anih loe aicae bomkung hoi angvaenhaih aphaw ah oh.
The hope of our souls is in the LORD; He is our help and our shield.
21 Kaciim anih ih ahmin to a oep o pongah, aicae ih palungthin loe anih ah anghoehaih a tawnh o.
Yea, in him doth our heart rejoice; In his holy name we have confidence.
22 Aw Angraeng, nang kang oep o baktih toengah, na palungnathaih kaicae nuiah om nasoe.
May thy goodness be upon us, O LORD! According as we trust in thee!
