Saam 55
1 Katoeng kruek zaehoikung hanah. Neginoth ah sak han koi, David ih masakil. Aw Sithaw, lawk ka thuihaih hae tahngai ah; tahmen kang hnikhaih hoi angqoi taak hmah.
Give ear to my prayer, O God; and hide not yourself from my supplication.
2 Na tahngai pae ah loe pathim ah: poek anghmang sut moe,
Attend unto me, and hear me: I mourn in my complaint, and make a noise;
3 ka misa ih lok hoi kasae kaminawk ih pacaekthlaekhaih pongah, ka hang khing boeh; nihcae loe a sakpazae o haih to ka nuiah amtik o, kai palung ang phui o thuih moe, ang hnukma o.
Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked: for they cast iniquity upon me, and in wrath they hate me.
4 Ka palung loe athung ah patangkhang; duek zithaih mah ang kraeng khoep boeh.
My heart is sore pained within me: and the terrors of death are fallen upon me.
5 Ka nuiah zithaih hoi tasoehhaih to phak moe, kai loe zithaih mah muek khoep boeh.
Fearfulness and trembling are come upon me, and horror has overwhelmed me.
6 To naah, Aw pahuu baktiah pakhraeh ka tawnh soe nahaeloe, kangthla ah ka zawk moe, amding rue ah ka oh han boeh!
And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest.
7 Khenah, kangthla ah kam het moe, praezaek ah ka oh ving han. (Selah)
Lo, then would I wander far off, and remain in the wilderness. (Selah)
8 Takhi pui hoi takhi sae to loih hanah, karangah ka cawnh han, tiah ka thuih.
I would hasten my escape from the windy storm and tempest.
9 Aw Angraeng, nihcae amrosak hanah, lok to anghmangsak ah; vangpui thungah lokpunghaih hoi angzoehhaih to ka hnuk boeh.
Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongues: for I have seen violence and strife in the city.
10 Nihcae loe aqum athun sipae taengah caeh o; athung ah loe kahoih ai hmuen sakhaih hoi qahhaih to oh.
Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof: mischief also and sorrow are in the midst of it.
11 Kasae sakhaih vangpui thungah oh o, lampuinawk ah kaom pacaekthlaekhaih hoi alinghaih loe boeng thai ai boeh.
Wickedness is in the midst thereof: deceit and guile depart not from her streets.
12 Kai pahnui thuih kami loe kai ih misa na ai ni, kai ih misa ah om cadoeh ka pauep thai tih; angmah hoi angmah amkoeh moe, kai hnuma kami doeh kai ih misa na ai ni, kai ih misa ah om nahaeloe, anih to ka yae ving han:
For it was not an enemy that reproached me; then I could have borne it: neither was it he that hated me that did magnify himself against me; then I would have hid myself from him:
13 to kami loe, kai hoi kanghmong, kam pui, ampui kangzong ah kaom, nang ni.
But it was you, a man mine equal, my guide, and mine acquaintance.
14 Kaicae loe kahoih lok to ka thuih o moe, kaminawk hoi nawnto Sithaw im ah ka caeh o.
We took sweet counsel together, and walked unto the house of God in company.
15 Sethaih loe nihcae ohhaih ahmuen, nihcae salakah oh pongah, nihcae to duekhaih mah naeh nasoe loe, hell thungah kahingah caeh o nasoe. (Sheol h7585)
Let death seize upon them, and let them go down quick into hell: for wickedness is in their dwellings, and among them. (Sheol h7585)
16 Toe kai loe, Sithaw to ka kawk han; Angraeng mah na pahlong tih.
As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall save me.
17 Duembang, akhawnbang hoi athun ah, lawkthuihaih hoiah ka hangh; to naah anih mah ka lok na thaih pae tih.
Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice.
18 Kai tuh kami loe pop o parai pognah, kai ang tuk o naah, anih mah monghaih hoiah ka hinghaih ang pahlong.
He has delivered my soul in peace from the battle that was against me: for there were many with me.
19 Canghnii hoiah kaom poe Sithaw mah thaih naah, nihcae to pacaekthlaek tih. (Selah) Nihcae loe amkhraihaih om ai pongah, Sithaw zii o ai.
God shall hear, and afflict them, even he that abides of old. (Selah) Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not God.
20 To baktih kami loe a thuih ih lok baktiah om ai, angmah hoi angdaeh ampui to misa ah suek.
He has put forth his hands against such as be at peace with him: he has broken his covenant.
21 Pakha hoi tacawt a thuih ih loknawk loe samdai baktiah amnae, toe palung thungah loe misatuk han ih khue ni a poek; a lok loe moithawk pongah naem kue, toe nihcae loe sumsen hoi kami hum hanah oh o coek.
The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet were they drawn swords.
22 Nangmah ih hmuenzit to Angraeng khaeah amtii ah, anih mah na bomh tih; katoeng kami loe natuek naah doeh amtimsak mak ai.
Cast your burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain you: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.
23 Toe Aw Sithaw, nang mah nihcae to tangqom thungah pakhrah tih; athii anghae kami hoi aling thaih kaminawk loe, a hing o haih ahap mataeng doeh hing o mak ai; toe kai loe, nang khaeah ni ka buep han.
But you, O God, shall bring them down into the pit of destruction: bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days; but I will trust in you.
