Tingtoeng 11

1 Aka mawt ham David kah BOEIPA dongah ka ying coeng. Metlamlae ka hinglu te vaa bangla na tlang dongah rhaehba khaw rhaehba mai na ti?

In Jehovah I take refuge. How will ye say to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain.

2 Halang rhoek loh lungbuei aka thuem rhoek te a hmuep lamloh kah ham, lirhui dongah thaltang a mop uh tih lii a phuk uh thil ke.

For, lo, the wicked bend the bow. They make ready their arrow upon the string that they may shoot in darkness at the upright in heart.

3 A yung a paa te a koengloeng uh vaengah aka dueng loh balae a saii thai?

If the foundations be destroyed, what can a righteous man do?

4 BOEIPA tah amah kah bawkim cim ah om. BOEIPA kah a ngolkhoel tah vaan ah om. Hlang capa rhoek te a mik neh a dawn tih a mikkhu neh a noem.

Jehovah is in his holy temple. Jehovah's throne is in heaven. His eyes, behold, his eyelids try, the sons of men.

5 BOEIPA loh aka dueng neh aka halang te a noem vaengah kuthlahnah aka lungnah te BOEIPA kah a hinglu loh a hmuhuet.

Jehovah tries the righteous man, but his soul hates the wicked man and him who loves violence.

6 Halang tah hmai pael neh kat a tlan thil vetih yilh ling boengloeng te a buham nah ni.

He will rain snares upon sinners. Fire and brimstone and burning wind shall be the portion of their cup.

7 Duengnah BOEIPA tah a dueng dongah a thuem aka lungnah rhoek long ni a maelhmai a hmuh uh eh.

For Jehovah is righteous. He loves righteousness. The upright man shall behold his face.
