Tingtoeng 101

1 [David kah Tingtoenglung] Na sitlohnah neh tiktamnah te ka hlai vetih BOEIPA nang te kan tingtoeng ni.

[A Psalm by David.] I will sing of loving kindness and justice. To you, LORD, I will sing praises.

2 Longpuei cuemthuek la ka cangbam van eh. Me vaengah nim kai taengla na lo ve? Ka imkhui lung ah ka thinko kah thincaknah nen ni ka pongpa eh.

I will be careful to live a blameless life. When will you come to me? I will walk within my house with a blameless heart.

3 Aka muen kah hno te ka mikhmuh ah ka khueh mahpawh. Vilvak vilvak aka saii khaw ka thiinah dongah kai taengla ha pangnael boel saeh.

I will set no vile thing before my eyes. I hate the deeds of faithless men. They will not cling to me.

4 Thinko voeldak nang kai taeng lamkah khoe uh tih boethae he ka ming moenih.

A perverse heart will be far from me. I will have nothing to do with evil.

5 Yinhnuk ah a hui a thet, a thet tih a mikdai aka oek te khaw ka koeih pah ni. Te vaengah anih kah a thinko a mungkung khaw ka naep puei mahpawh.

I will silence whoever secretly slanders his neighbor. I won't tolerate one who is haughty and conceited.

6 Khohmuen loh a tangnah rhoek te kamah taengah khosak sak ham ka mik ah om. Cuemthuek longpuei ah aka pongpa loh kai bi bi saeh.

My eyes will be on the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me. He who walks in a perfect way, he will serve me.

7 Vuelvaeknah aka saii loh ka imkhui lung ah om boel saeh. Laithae aka thui khaw ka mikhmuh ah pai mahpawh.

He who practices deceit won't dwell within my house. He who speaks falsehood won't be established before my eyes.

8 Boethae kah a saii boeih te BOEIPA khopuei khui lamkah thup ham atah khohmuen kah halang rhoek boeih te mincang ah bat ka biit ni.

Morning by morning, I will destroy all the wicked of the land; to cut off all evildoers from the LORD's city.
