Saam 90
1 Sithaw kami Mosi lawkthuihaih. Angraeng, nang loe adung boih ah kaicae ohhaih ahmuen ah na oh.
A Prayer by Moses, the man of God. Lord, you have been our dwelling place for all generations.
2 Maenawk loe om o ai vop, longlai hoi long na sah ai nathuem hoi boeh ni, nang loe dungzan hoi dugzan khoek to Sithaw ah na oh boeh.
Before the mountains were born, before you had formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, you are God.
3 Kami to nam rosak; kami ih caanawk, amlaem o let ah, tiah na naa.
You turn man to destruction, saying, “Return, you children of men.”
4 Saning sangto loe na hmaa ah tidoeh na ai ni, kalaem tangcae ni baktih, atue setta qum atue baktiah ni oh.
For a thousand years in your sight are just like yesterday when it is past, like a watch in the night.
5 Nihcae to tui mah pazawk baktiah na lak ving; nihcae loe ka iip baktiah oh o moe, akhawnbang ah tacawt tahang phroh baktiah oh o.
You sweep them away as they sleep. In the morning they sprout like new grass.
6 Phroh loe akhawnbang ah sai moe, qoeng tahang, duembang ah loe amro moe, azaem ving.
In the morning it sprouts and springs up. By evening, it is withered and dry.
7 Kaicae loe palung na phuihaih hoiah kam ro o; palung na bet pongah tasoehhaih hoiah ka oh o.
For we are consumed in your anger. We are troubled in your wrath.
8 Kaicae sakpazaehaihnawk to na hmaa ah na suek moe, tamqumta hoiah ka sak o ih zaehaihnawk loe na hmaa ih aanghaih mah toeh phaeng.
You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your presence.
9 Palung na phui pongah kaicae ih aninawk loe laemh boeh; saningnawk loe thuih ih ruici baktiah ni ka laemh o sak boeh.
For all our days have passed away in your wrath. We bring our years to an end as a sigh.
10 Kaicae hinghaih saning loe qui sarihto sawk; thacak nahaeloe saning qui tazetto pha tih; khosak hoih li nathuem ah doeh patanghaih hoi palungsethaih khue ni oh; toe saningnawk loe akra ai ah laemh o, kaicae doeh kang hmat kang taa o.
The days of our years are seventy, or even by reason of strength eighty years; yet their pride is but labor and sorrow, for it passes quickly, and we fly away.
11 Palung na phuihaih tha loe mi mah maw panoek tih? Nang loe zitthoh baktih toengah palung na phuihaih doeh zitthoh.
Who knows the power of your anger, your wrath according to the fear that is due to you?
12 Palunghahaih ka patoh o thai hanah, ka hing o haih aninawk kroek thaihaih to na patuk ah.
So teach us to count our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
13 Aw Angraeng, amlaem let ah, nasetto maw akra vop tih? Na tamnanawk nuiah tahmenhaih to tawn ah.
Relent, LORD! How long? Have compassion on your servants!
14 Na tahmenhaih rang hoiah akhawnbang ah zok amhahsak ah; to tiah nahaeloe ka hing o thung anghoehaih hoi oephaih hoiah ka om o tih.
Satisfy us in the morning with your loving kindness, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
15 Kaicae patang nang khangsakhaih saning, kasae tonghaih saning paroeai pop boeh pongah, kaicae anghoehaih atue to na paek ah.
Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, for as many years as we have seen evil.
16 Na sak ih hmuen to na tamnanawk khaeah amtuengsak ah loe, na lensawkhaih to a caanawk khaeah amtuengsak ah.
Let your work appear to your servants, your glory to their children.
17 Aicae Angraeng Sithaw tahmenhaih aicae nuiah om nasoe; kaimacae ban hoi ka sak o ih tok to na caksak ah; ue, kaimacae ban hoi ka sak o ih tok to na caksak ah.
Let the favor of the Lord our God be on us. Establish the work of our hands for us. Yes, establish the work of our hands.
