Tingtoeng 10
1 Aw BOEIPA, balae tih mueirhih tue vaengah a hla la na thuh tih na pai?
Why stand you afar off, O Lord? [why] do you overlook [us] in times of need, in affliction?
2 Halang kah a hoemnah loh mangdaeng te a hlak dae tangkhuepnah neh a moeh rhoek long te amamih lat a tuuk.
While the ungodly one acts proudly, the poor is hotly pursued: [the wicked] are taken in the crafty counsels which they imagine.
3 Halang tah a hinglu kah hoehhamnah dongah yan uh tih, aka mueluem loh BOEIPA yah aka bai te a uem.
Because the sinner praises himself for the desires of his heart; and the unjust one blesses himself.
4 Halang tah oeknah neh a thintoek a khueh. Pathen te toem pawt tih, a thuepnah boeih dongah om pawh.
The sinner has provoked the Lord: according to the abundance of his pride he will not seek after [him]: God is not before him.
5 A longpuei a longpuei te a tue boeih ah kilkul. Na laitloeknah te anih hmai lamloh a sang pah. Anih aka daengdaeh boeih khaw amamih te lat a sat.
His ways are profane at all times; your judgements are removed from before him: he will gain the mastery over all his enemies.
6 A lungbuei ah, “Thawnpuei lamkah thawnpuei due ka tuen pawt vetih ka yoethae mahpawh,” a ti.
For he has said in his heart, I shall not be moved, [continuing] without evil from generation to generation.
7 A ka dongah olthae olkha, hlangthai palat ya neh hnaephnapnah bae tih a lai dongah thakthaenah neh boethae ni aka om.
Whose mouth is full of cursing, and bitterness, and fraud: under his tongue are trouble and pain.
8 Vong kaep kah rhong ah ngol tih, a huephael ah ommongsitoe a ngawn. A mik neh mangdaeng mangtok te a mae uh.
He lies in wait with rich [men] in secret places, in order to kill the innocent: his eyes are set against the poor.
9 Mangdaeng te tuuk ham a huephael kah po khuiah sathueng bangla rhongngol. Mangdaeng te a tuuk vaengah amah kah lawk neh a sol.
He lies in wait in secret as a lion in his den: he lies in wait to ravish the poor, to ravish the poor when he draws him [after him]: he will bring him down in his snare.
10 Te dongah paep la paep tih a ngawm phoeiah tah tatthai khaw a pilnu hmuiah ni mangdaeng mangtok la a cungku.
He will bow down and fall when he has mastered the poor.
11 A lungbuei ah, “Pathen loh a hnilh coeng, a maelhmai a thuh tih yoeyah la hmu mahpawh,” a ti.
For he has said in his heart, God has forgotten: he has turned away his face so as never to look.
12 Aw BOEIPA Pathen thoo lah, na kut thueng lah. Mangdaeng kodo te nang loh hnilh boeh.
Arise, O Lord God; let your hand be lifted up: forget not the poor.
13 Balae tih halang loh Pathen yah a bai te amah lungbuei ah, “Nan cae tang mahpawh,” a ti?
Therefore, has the wicked provoked God? for he has said in his heart, He will not require [it].
14 Tedae, na hmuh coeng dongah, thakthaenah neh konoinah, na kut dongah khueh ham na paelki. Namah tah cadah aka bom la na om dongah, na taengah mangdaeng mangtok khaw a hal.
You see [it]; for you do observe trouble and wrath, to deliver them into your hands: the poor has been left to you; you were a helper to the orphan.
15 Boethae halang kah a ban te khaem pah. A halangnah te cae pah lamtah hlun boeh.
Break you the arm of the sinner and wicked man: his sin shall be sought for, and shall not be found.
16 BOEIPA tah kumhal ah manghai yoeyah tih, a khohmuen kah namtom rhoek tah milh uh ni.
The Lord shall reign for ever, even for ever and ever: you Gentiles shall perish out his land.
17 Kodo rhoek kah ngaihlihnah te BOEIPA nang loh na hna neh na hnatung tih, na yaak dongah, a lungbuei na cikngae sak.
The Lord has heard the desire of the poor: your ear has inclined to the preparation of their heart;
18 Cadah neh hlanghnaep pahnap ham laitloek pah. Diklai lamkah hlanghing taengah, a sarhing ham te koep khoep boel saeh.
to plead for the orphan and afflicted, that man may no more boast upon the earth.
