“A song or psalm of David.” My heart is firm, O God; I will sing and give praise, even with my spirit.

Awake, psaltery and harp: I will wake up the morning-dawn.
3 Pilnam rhoek lakliah BOEIPA namah te kan uem saeh lamtah, namtu pawt taengah nang kan tingtoeng eh.
I will give thee thanks among the people, O Lord: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.
4 Na sitlohnah tah vaan lakah sang tih, na oltak loh khomong khaw a puet.
For great above the heavens is thy kindness, and thy truth reacheth even unto the skies.
5 Pathen tah vaan ah, na thangpomnah te diklai pum ah pomsang pai saeh.
Exalt thyself above the heavens, O God; and above all the earth thy glory.
6 Na lungnah rhoek te pumcum uh van saeh. Na bantang kut neh khang lamtah, kai n'doo lah.
In order that thy beloved may be delivered: help with thy right hand, and answer me.

God hath spoken in his holiness: I will exult, I will divide Shechem, and the valley of Succoth will I measure out.
8 Gilead he kai kah tih, Manasseh khaw kai kah. Ephraim khaw ka lu ham lunghim tih, Judah khaw ka taem ni.
Mine id Gil'ad, and mine is Menasseh; Ephraim also is the strong-hold of my head; of Judah are my chiefs.
9 Moab tah kai kah tuihluknah am ni. Edom soah ka khokhom ka voeih tih, Philistia te ka yuhui thil.
Moab is my washpot; upon Edom will I cast my shoe; over Philistia will I triumph.
10 Hmuencak khopuei la ulong kai n'khuen eh? Edom la ulong kai m'mawt eh?,” a ti.
Who will bring me into the fortified city? who will lead me as far as Edom?
11 Pathen nang loh kaimih nan hlahpham pawt tih, Pathen namah te kaimih kah caempuei rhoek taengla na pawk moenih a?
Behold, it is thou, O God, who hast cast us off; and thou, O God, goest not forth with our armies.
12 Hlang kah loeihnah he a poeyoek. Te dongah rhal taengah khaw, kaimih he bomnah m'pae lah.
Give us help against the assailant; for vain is the help of man.
13 Pathen neh caem ka tloek uh vetih, ka rhal ka suntlae ni.
Through God shall we do valiantly; for he it is that will tread down our adversaries.
