Saam 36
1 Katoeng kruek zaehoikung hanah, Angraeng ih tamna David ih Saam laa. Kasae kami zaehaih mah ka palung thungah lok ang thuih: Anih loe mik ah Sithaw zithaih roe tawn ai.
For the Chief Musician. By David, the servant of the LORD. A revelation is within my heart about the disobedience of the wicked: There is no fear of God before his eyes.
2 Panuet thok angmah ih zaehaih to hnu ai, angmah hoi angmah to kahoih baktiah a hnuk.
For he flatters himself in his own eyes, too much to detect and hate his sin.
3 Anih pakha thung ih loknawk loe sethaih hoi alinghaih khue ni oh: hoihaih paek thaih palunghahaih to a caehtaak boeh.
The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit. He has ceased to be wise and to do good.
4 Anih loe iihhaih ahmuen ah oh naah mataeng doeh kasae khue ni poek; kahoih ai loklam to a pazui, sethaih tuinuen to panuet ai.
He plots iniquity on his bed. He sets himself in a way that is not good. He doesn’t abhor evil.
5 Aw Angraeng, na palungnathaih mah vannawk to phak moe, na oep thohhaih loe tamai khoek to phak boeh.
Your loving kindness, LORD, is in the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.
6 Na toenghaih loe mae pui baktiah oh; na lokcaekhaih loe thuk parai: Aw Angraeng, nang mah ni kami hoi taw ih moinawk to na khetzawn.
Your righteousness is like the mountains of God. Your judgments are like a great deep. LORD, you preserve man and animal.
7 Aw Sithaw, nam lunghaih loe kawkruk maw hoih! To pongah ni kaminawk loe na pakhraeh tahlip ah abuep o.
How precious is your loving kindness, God! The children of men take refuge under the shadow of your wings.
8 Na im thung ih angraenghaih mah nihcae to palung khuek tihsak ueloe, nang hoehaih vapui tui to nihcae han na naesak tih.
They shall be abundantly satisfied with the abundance of your house. You will make them drink of the river of your pleasures.
9 Hinghaih tuibap loe nang khaeah ni oh: na aanghaih mah kaicae han aanghaih to paek.
For with you is the spring of life. In your light we will see light.
10 Nang panoek kaminawk khaeah nam lunghaih to omsak poeh loe, poek toeng kaminawk khaeah na toenghaih to omsak poe ah.
Oh continue your loving kindness to those who know you, your righteousness to the upright in heart.
11 Amoek kami ih khok to kai khaeah angzosak hmah, kasae kami ih ban mah doeh kai hae na tahruet hmah nasoe.
Don’t let the foot of pride come against me. Don’t let the hand of the wicked drive me away.
12 Kahoih ai hmuen sah kaminawk loe amtimh o: nihcae loe amtimh o moe, angthawk o thai ai boeh.
There the workers of iniquity are fallen. They are thrust down, and shall not be able to rise.
