Saam 63
1 Judah praezaek ah oh naah, David ih Saam laa. Aw Sithaw, nang loe ka Sithaw ah na oh; nang to kang pakrong han; tui om ai praezaek ah, ka pakhra mah nang hae tui ah anghaeh moe, ka taksa mah nang to poek.
A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. O God, thou [art] my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;
2 Na thacakhaih hoi na lensawkhaih to hnuk hanah, hmuenciim ah nang kang pakrong moe, kang hnuk boeh.
To see thy power and thy glory, so [as] I have seen thee in the sanctuary.
3 Nang tahmenhaih loe hinghaih pongah hoih kue baktih toengah, pahni hoiah nang kang pakoeh han.
Because thy lovingkindness [is] better than life, my lips shall praise thee.
4 Ka hing thung tahamhoihaih kang paek han, na hmin hoiah ban ka payangh han.
Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
5 Tangkhring hoi kathawk moi baktiah, ka hinghaih mah zok amhah tih, ka pahni mah anghoehaih laa to sah ueloe, ka pakha mah nang to pakoeh tih.
My soul shall be satisfied as [with] marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise [thee] with joyful lips:
6 Ka iihkhun hoi nang to kang panoek poe moe, aqum puek nang to kang poek han.
When I remember thee upon my bed, [and] meditate on thee in the [night] watches.
7 Nang loe kai bomkung ah na oh pongah, na pakhraeh tahlip ah kang hoe han.
Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.
8 Ka hinghaih loe nang khaeah ni amha, na bantang ban hoiah nang patawnh.
My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.
9 Ka pakhra paro han pakrong kaminawk loe, longkhaw thungah caeh o tih.
But those [that] seek my soul, to destroy [it], shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
10 Nihcae loe sumsen hoi amtimh o ueloe, tasuinawk ih rawkcak ah angcoeng o tih.
They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.
11 Toe siangpahrang loe Sithaw ah anghoe tih; anih hoi lokkamhaih sah kaminawk loe lensawk o tih; toe amsawnlok thui kaminawk ih pakha loe tamuep pae khoep tih.
But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.
