Tingtoeng 16
1 David kah Laa Aw Boeipa Pathen namah dongah ka ying tih kai n'dawndah lah.
Preserve me, O God: for in you do I put my trust.
2 Ka Boeipa Yahovah namah taengah, “Nang phoeiah tah ka hnothen a om moenih,” ka ti.
O my soul, you have said to the LORD, You are my Lord: my goodness extends not to you;
3 Diklai ah aka cim tih, aka khuet boeih taengah ka naep.
But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.
4 A tloe aka oei rhoek tah a nganboh la pung. Amih thii te tuisi ka bueih pawt vetih ka hmuilai neh amih ming te ka khuen mahpawh.
Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another god: their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their names into my lips.
5 BOEIPA tah kai kah buham khoyo neh ka boengloeng la om. Namah loh ka hmulung khaw na duel.
The LORD is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup: you maintain my lot.
6 Rhilong khaw kai ham tah, hmuennaep ah cet tih, kai ham rho then ngawn coeng.
The lines are fallen to me in pleasant places; yes, I have a goodly heritage.
7 Kai aka uen aka to BOEIPA te a yoethen saeh. Khoyin ah khaw ka kuel loh kamah n'toel.
I will bless the LORD, who has given me counsel: my reins also instruct me in the night seasons.
8 BOEIPA loh kai kah bantang ben ah om tih, kamah hmai la ka mop taitu dongah ka tuen mahpawh.
I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
9 Te dongah ka lungbuei a kohoe tih ka kah thangpomnah loh a omngaih vaengah, ka pumsa khaw ngaikhuek la duem ni.
Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoices: my flesh also shall rest in hope.
10 Ka hinglu he Saelkhui la na hnoo pawt vetih, namah kah hlangcim te hlan na hmuh sak mahpawh. (Sheol h7585)
For you will not leave my soul in hell; neither will you suffer your Holy One to see corruption. (Sheol h7585)
11 Hingnah caehlong te kai nan tueng tih, na hmai ah kohoenah kodam la om. Na bantang kut ah a yoeyah la ka ngailaem.
You will show me the path of life: in your presence is fullness of joy; at your right hand there are pleasures for ever more.
