Tingtoeng 16
1 David kah Laa Aw Boeipa Pathen namah dongah ka ying tih kai n'dawndah lah.
A Secret Treasure of David. Preserve me, O God, for I did trust in Thee.
2 Ka Boeipa Yahovah namah taengah, “Nang phoeiah tah ka hnothen a om moenih,” ka ti.
Thou hast said to Jehovah, 'My Lord Thou [art];' My good [is] not for thine own sake;
3 Diklai ah aka cim tih, aka khuet boeih taengah ka naep.
For the holy ones who [are] in the land, And the honourable, all my delight [is] in them.
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.
Multiplied are their griefs, [Who] have hastened backward; I pour not out their libations of blood, Nor do I take up their names on my lips.
5 BOEIPA tah kai kah buham khoyo neh ka boengloeng la om. Namah loh ka hmulung khaw na duel.
Jehovah [is] the portion of my share, and of my cup, Thou — Thou dost uphold my lot.
6 Rhilong khaw kai ham tah, hmuennaep ah cet tih, kai ham rho then ngawn coeng.
Lines have fallen to me in pleasant places, Yea, a beauteous inheritance [is] for me.
7 Kai aka uen aka to BOEIPA te a yoethen saeh. Khoyin ah khaw ka kuel loh kamah n'toel.
I bless Jehovah who hath counselled me; Also [in] the nights my reins instruct me.
8 BOEIPA loh kai kah bantang ben ah om tih, kamah hmai la ka mop taitu dongah ka tuen mahpawh.
I did place Jehovah before me continually, Because — at my right hand I am not moved.
9 Te dongah ka lungbuei a kohoe tih ka kah thangpomnah loh a omngaih vaengah, ka pumsa khaw ngaikhuek la duem ni.
Therefore hath my heart been glad, And my honour doth rejoice, Also my flesh dwelleth confidently:
10 Ka hinglu he Saelkhui la na hnoo pawt vetih, namah kah hlangcim te hlan na hmuh sak mahpawh. (Sheol h7585)
For Thou dost not leave my soul to Sheol, Nor givest thy saintly 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.
Thou causest me to know the path of life; Fulness of joys [is] with Thy presence, Pleasant things by Thy right hand for ever!
