Saam 77

1 Katoeng kruek zaehoikung hanah. Jeduthun ah sak koi Asaph ih Saam laa. Sithaw khaeah ka hangh; ka hangh naah, anih mah ka lok ang tahngaih pae.

For the excellent musician Ieduthun. A Psalme committed to Asaph. My voyce came to God, when I cryed: my voyce came to God, and he heard me.

2 Raihaih ka tong naah Angraeng to ka pakrong; angpho ai ah aqum ah ban ka payangh; ka hinghaih mah pathloephaih to koeh ai.

In the day of my trouble I sought ye Lord: my sore ranne and ceased not in the night: my soule refused comfort.

3 Sithaw ka poek moe, raihaih ka tong; ka poek het naah ka muithla angpho. (Selah)

I did thinke vpon God, and was troubled: I praied, and my spirit was full of anguish. (Selah)

4 Nang mah ka mik pakhrip thai ai ah nang suek; raihaih ka tong pongah lok ka pae thai ai.

Thou keepest mine eyes waking: I was astonied and could not speake.

5 Kalaem tangcae aninawk hoi canghnii ih adungnawk to ka poek.

Then I considered the daies of olde, and the yeeres of ancient time.

6 Aqum ah kaimah ih laa to ka poek; kaimah ih palung hoiah lok ka paeh hoi; to naah ka muithla mah lok ang dueng.

I called to remembrance my song in the night: I communed with mine owne heart, and my spirit searched diligently.

7 Angraeng mah dungzan khoek to pahnawt tih boeh maw? A tahmenhaih amtuengsak mak ai boeh maw?

Will the Lord absent him selfe for euer? and will he shewe no more fauour?

8 A palungnathaih to dungzan khoek to boeng tih boeh maw? A lokkamhaih doeh amro poe tih boeh maw?

Is his mercie cleane gone for euer? doeth his promise faile for euermore?

9 Tahmen hanah Sithaw mah pahnet boeh maw? Palungphui pongah palungnathaih thok to khah ving boeh maw? (Selah)

Hath God forgotten to be mercifull? hath he shut vp his teder mercies in displeasure? (Selah)

10 To naah raihaih ka tong; toe Kasang koek bantang ban hoiah sak ih saningnawk to ka poek han, tiah ka thuih.

And I sayde, This is my death: yet I remembred the yeeres of the right hand of the most High.

11 Angraeng mah sak ih hmuennawk to ka poek han; canghnii ah na sak ih dawnrai hmuennawk to ka pakuem poe han.

I remembred the workes of the Lord: certainely I remembred thy wonders of olde.

12 Na toksakhaihnawk boih to ka poek moe, na toksakhaihnawk to ka thuih han.

I did also meditate all thy woorkes, and did deuise of thine actes, saying,

13 Aw Sithaw, na loklam loe ciim; aicae Sithaw baktiah lensawk Sithaw mi maw om vop?

Thy way, O God, is in the Sanctuarie: who is so great a God as our God!

14 Nang loe dawnrai hmuennawk sah Sithaw ah na oh; na thacakhaih to minawk salakah nam tuengsak.

Thou art ye God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy power among the people.

15 Na ban thacakhaih hoiah nangmah ih kaminawk, Jakob hoi Joseph ih caanawk to na pahlong. (Selah)

Thou hast redeemed thy people with thine arme, euen the sonnes of Iaakob and Ioseph. (Selah)

16 Aw Sithaw, tuinawk mah nang ang hnuk o; tuinawk mah nang ang hnuk o naah, ang zit o; kathuk tuinawk doeh tasoeh o.

The waters sawe thee, O God: the waters sawe thee, and were afraide: yea, the depths trembled.

17 Tamainawk mah tui to kraih o; vannawk ah khopazih; nang ih kaliinawk doeh ahmuen kruekah krak o.

The cloudes powred out water: the heauens gaue a sounde: yea, thine arrowes went abroade.

18 Nang ih khopazih tuen loe van ah oh; tangphrapuekhaih mah long to toeh; long loe tasoeh moe, anghuenh.

The voyce of thy thunder was rounde about: the lightnings lightened the worlde: the earth trembled and shooke.

19 Na loklam loe tuipui thungah oh, na caehhaih loklam loe kalen tuipuinawk thungah oh, na khok tangkannawk loe amtueng ai.

Thy way is in the Sea, and thy paths in the great waters, and thy footesteps are not knowen.

20 Mosi hoi Aaron ih ban hoiah nangmah ih kaminawk to tuunawk baktiah na hoih.

Thou diddest leade thy people like sheepe by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
