For the leader. A psalm of David. The king rejoices, Lord, in your might, how he exults because of your help!

You have granted to him his heart’s desire, you have not withheld his lips’ request. (Selah)

Great is his glory because of your help, honour and majesty you lay upon him.
6 Anih te yoethennah na paek yoeyah dongah namah hmai kah kohoenah neh a ko na hoe sak.

For the king puts always his trust in the Lord; the Most High, in his love, will preserve him unshaken.

Your hand will reach all your foes, your right hand, all who hate you.

You will make them like a furnace of fire, when you appear, Lord. The Lord will swallow them up in his wrath. The fire will devour them.

You will sweep their offspring from the earth, their children from humanity.

When they scheme against you and hatch evil plots – they will fail.
12 Tedae na liva neh amih maelhmai te na nuen vaengah amih te a hnuk la na rhoe bitni.
For you aim your bow at their faces, make them turn in flight.
13 BOEIPA te pomsang pai saeh. Na sarhi te ka hlai uh vetih na thayung thamal te ka tingtoeng uh ni.
Be exalted, Lord, in your strength, to your might we shall sing and make music.
