Saam 6

1 Aqui tazetto kaom katoeng kruek zaehoikung hoi Neginoth hoiah sak moe, Shemenith lok baktiah sak han ih David ih Saam laa. Aw Angraeng, na palungphuihaih hoiah na zoeh hmah, palungphuihaih hoiah na thuitaek hmah.

To the chief music-maker on corded instruments, on the Sheminith. A Psalm. Of David. O Lord, do not be bitter with me in your wrath; do not send punishment on me in the heat of your passion.

2 Aw Angraeng, tha ka cak ai pongah, na tahmen ah: Aw Angraeng, kai ih ahuhnawk loe angthlong hlawk boih boeh pongah, na hoihsak ah.

Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am wasted away: make me well, for even my bones are troubled.

3 Ka hinghaih doeh thazok sut boeh: toe aw Angraeng, nang loe nasetto maw na oh han vop?

My soul is in bitter trouble; and you, O Lord, how long?

4 Aw Angraeng, amlaem ah loe, ka hinghaih na pahlong ah; na tahmenhaih rang hoiah na pahlong ah.

Come back, O Lord, make my soul free; O give me salvation because of your mercy.

5 Tipongah tih nahaeloe duek pacoengah loe nang poekhaih to om mak ai boeh: mi mah maw taprong thung hoiah nang khaeah kawnhaih lok thui tih? (Sheol h7585)

For in death there is no memory of you; in the underworld who will give you praise? (Sheol h7585)

6 Ka hanghaih loiah kang pho sut boeh; aqum puek ka qahhaih mikkhraetui mah ka iihkhun to pazawk moe, ka iihhaih ahmuen doeh ka mikkhraetui hoiah ka suisak boih boeh.

The voice of my sorrow is a weariness to me; all the night I make my bed wet with weeping; it is watered by the drops flowing from my eyes.

7 Palungset loiah ka mik thazok sut boeh moe, ka misanawk pongah ka mik amtueng ai boeh.

My eyes are wasting away with trouble; they are becoming old because of all those who are against me.

8 Nangcae kasae hmuen sah kaminawk, kai khae hoi tacawt o lai ah, tipongah tih nahaeloe Angraeng mah ka qahhaih lok to ang thaih pae boeh.

Go from me, all you workers of evil; for the Lord has given ear to the voice of my weeping.

9 Tahmen ka hnikhaih lok to Angraeng mah ang thaih pae; ka qahhaih lok Angraeng mah ang thaih pae boeh.

The Lord has given ear to my request; the Lord has let my prayer come before him.

10 Ka misanawk boih loe dawnraihaih hoiah azatpaw o nasoe loe; azatpawhaih hoiah hnuk angnawn o nasoe.

Let all those who are against me be shamed and deeply troubled; let them be turned back and suddenly put to shame.
