Saam 9
1 Katoeng kruek zaehoikung hanah, Mut-labben lok hoiah sak koi David ih Saam laa. Aw Angraeng, ka palungthin boih hoi nang kang saphaw han; na sak ih dawnrai hmuennawk boih to ka hnuksak han.
[For the choir director; according to Muth-labben. A Psalm by David.] I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart. I will tell of all your marvelous works.
2 Poeknawmhaih hoi nang ah kang hoe moe, aw Sang koek, na hmin pakoehhaih laa to ka sak han.
I will be glad and rejoice in you. I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.
3 Ka misanawk hnukbangah amlaem o let naah, na hmaa ah amtimh o moe, anghmat o.
When my enemies turn back, they stumble and perish in your presence.
4 Ka toenghaih to nang doet haih; angraeng tangkhang nuiah nang hnut moe, katoengah lok na caek.
For you have upheld my just cause. You sit on the throne judging righteously.
5 Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk to na thuitaek; kasae kaminawk to nam rosak moe, nihcae ih ahmin dungzan khoek to nang hmatsak boeh.
You have rebuked the nations. You have destroyed the wicked. You have blotted out their name forever and ever.
6 Aw na misa amrohaih loe, boeng khoek to phak boeh: vangpuinawk to na phreak pae, nihcae panoekhaih doeh angmacae hoi nawnto amro boih boeh.
The enemy is overtaken by endless ruin; and the very memory of the cities which you have overthrown has perished.
7 Toe Angraeng loe dungzan khoek to cak tih; lokcaek hanah angmah ih angraeng tangkhang to a caksak boeh.
But the LORD reigns forever. He has prepared his throne for judgment.
8 Anih mah long hae toenghaih hoiah lokcaek ueloe, katoeng lokcaekhaih hoiah kaminawk to uk tih.
And he will judge the world in righteousness. He will judge the peoples with equity.
9 Angraeng loe pacaekthlaekhaih tong kaminawk abuephaih ah om tih, raihaih atue ah doeh abuephaih ah oh.
The LORD will also be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.
10 Na hmin panoek kaminawk loe nang to oep o tih; Angraeng, nang pakrong kaminawk to na pahnawt sut mak ai.
And those who know your name will put their trust in you, for you, LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you.
11 Zion ah kaom, Angraeng khaeah saphawhaih laa to sah oh loe, a sak ih hmuennawk to congca kaminawk khaeah thui oh.
Sing praises to the LORD, who dwells in Zion, and declare among the people what he has done.
12 Anih loe kami athii longhaih to pakuem, pahnet ai: anih loe poek pahnaemhaih hoiah qah kaminawk ih lok to pahnet ai.
For he who takes revenge against murderers remembers them. He doesn't forget the cry of the afflicted.
13 Aw Angraeng, kai hae na tahmen ah; kai hnuma kaminawk ih pacaekthlaekhaih to na khen paeh loe, duekhaih khongkha thung hoiah na loisak ah:
Have mercy on me, LORD. See my affliction by those who hate me. You lift me up from the gates of death,
14 to tih nahaeloe Zion canu ih khongkhanawk ah nang pakoehhaih laa to ka sah thai boih ueloe, na pahlonghaih ah anghoehaih hoiah ka om tih.
so that I may tell all your praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion. I will rejoice in your salvation.
15 Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk loe angmacae mah takaeh o ih tangqom thungah krak o: angmacae mah hawk ih palok pongah angmacae ih khok to amanh o boih boeh.
The nations have fallen into the pit they had made. In the net which they hid, their feet are caught.
16 Angraeng loe a sak ih lokcaekhaih hoiah amtueng: toe kasae kami loe a ban hoi sak ih thaang pongah amanh. (Higgaion, Selah)
The LORD has made himself known. He has executed judgment. The wicked is snared by the work of his own hands. (Higgaion, Selah)
The wicked shall be turned back to Sheol, even all the nations that forget God. (Sheol h7585)
18 Kavawt kaminawk to pahnet poe mak ai ueloe, amtang kaminawk oephaih doeh anghma poe mak ai.
For the needy shall not always be forgotten; the hope of the poor shall not perish forever.
19 Aw Angraeng, angthawk ah, kami mah na pazawk hmah nasoe: Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk loe na hmaa ah lokcaekhaih om nasoe.
Arise, LORD. Do not let man prevail. Let the nations be judged in your presence.
20 Aw Angraeng, nihcae to ziisak ah: to tiah ni prae congca kaminawk mah angmacae hoi angmacae to kai loe kami rumram ni, tiah panoek o thai tih. (Selah)
Terrify them, LORD. Let the nations know that they are only human. (Selah)
