< Saam 52 >
1 Katoeng kruek zaehoikung hanah. David ih Maskil. Edom kami Dog loe Saul khaeah caeh moe, David loe Abimelek im ah caeh boeh, tiah a naa. Nang thacak kami, tikhoe kasae sak nam oek haih loe? Sithaw hoihhaih loe cak poe.
To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of Instruction, of David. When Doeg the Edomite went, and told Saul; and said to him, —David, hath entered the house of Ahimelech. Why dost thou boast thyself of wickedness, O mighty man? The lovingkindness of GOD, [lasteth] all the day.
2 Na palai loe haita kanoe baktiah, kasae sak han ih khue to poek pongah, alighaih tok to a sak.
Engulfing ruin, doth thy tongue devise, Like a whetted razor, working deceit;
3 Nang loe kahoih hmuen pongah kasae hmuen to na palung kue moe, loktang lok thuih pongah loe, amsawnlok thuih to na koeh kue. (Selah)
Thou lovest Evil more than good, Falsehood, more than speaking righteousness. (Selah)
4 Aw aling thaih palai, nang loe kasae lokthuihaih to na koeh.
Thou lovest all devouring words, O deceitful tongue!
5 Nang loe Sithaw mah dungzan khoek to amrosak tih, na haek ving ueloe, na ohhaih ahmuen hoiah azuk ving tih; ka hing kaminawk ohhaih prae thung hoiah na tangzun to aphongh ving tih. (Selah)
GOD also, will break thee down utterly, He will snatch thee up and tear thee away tentless, And uproot thee, out of the land of the living. (Selah)
6 Katoeng kaminawk mah hnuk o naah, zii o ueloe, anih to pahnui o thui tih:
The righteous shall both see and fear, And, over him, shall laugh:
7 Sithaw oep ai, angmah angraenghaih oep kami, kasae sakhaih caksak kaminawk to khen oh, tiah thui o tih.
Lo! the man who made not God his refuge, —But trusted in the abundance of his riches, Emboldened himself in his wealth!
8 Toe kai loe Sithaw imthung ih kahing olive thing baktiah ka oh: kai loe Sithaw amlunghaih ni dungzan hoi dungzan khoek to kang oep haih.
But, I, am like a flourishing olive-tree, in the house of God, I have put confidence in the lovingkindness of God, for times age-abiding and beyond.
9 Na sak pacoeng ih hmuen pongah, dungzan khoek to kang pakoeh han: na hoih pongah, nangmah ih kaciim kaminawk hmaa ah, na hmin to ka zing han.
I will praise thee to times age-abiding, Because thou didst effectually work, —And I will wait on thy Name, Because it is good, In the presence of thy men of lovingkindness.
