1 [David kah] Kai kah lungpang, BOEIPA nang te kan khue. Kai taengah olmueh boeh. Kai hamla na ngam vetih tangrhom ah aka suntla neh n'thuidoek ve.
[A Psalm] of David. To you, O Lord, have I cried; my God, be not silent toward me: lest you be silent toward me, and so I should be likened to them that go down to the pit.
2 Nang taengah bomnah ka bih vaengah, namah hmuencim kah cangimphu benla kut ka dawn vaengah ka huithui ol he han ya lah.
Listen to the voice of my supplication, when I pray to you, when I lift up my hands toward your holy temple.
3 Halang tih boethae aka saii rhoek neh kai he hmaih n'sol boeh. A hui taengah rhoepnah a thui dae a thinko khuiah thae.
Draw not away my soul with sinners, and destroy me not with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace with their neighbors, but evils are in their hearts.
4 Amih a bisai neh a khoboe thaenah vanbangla amih ham khueh pah. A kut bibi vanbangla amih neh aka tiing te hmoel lamtah amih taengah pae.
Give them according to their works, and according to the wickedness of their devices: give them according to the works of their hands; render their recompense to them.
5 BOEIPA kah thaphu neh a kut dongkah bibi a yakming uh pawt dongah amih te a koengloeng vetih koep suem mahpawh.
Because they have not attended to the works of the Lord, even to the works of his hands, you shall pull them down, and shall not build them up.
6 Ka huithuinah ol a yaak dongah BOEIPA te a yoethen saeh.
Blessed be the Lord, for he has listened to the voice of my petition.
7 BOEIPA tah ka sarhi neh ka photling ni. Amah te ka lungbuei loh a pangtung tih n'bom dongah ka lungbuei sundaep. Te dongah ka laa neh amah te ka uem ni.
The Lord is my helper and my defender; my heart has hoped in him, and I am helped: my flesh has revived, and willingly will I give praise to him.
8 BOEIPA tah amih kah sarhi neh, a koelh hlang kah khangnah lunghim ni.
The Lord is the strength of his people, and the saving defender of his anointed.
9 Na pilnam te khang lamtah na rho te a yoethen saeh. Amih te luem puei lamtah amih te kumhal duela phuei lah.
Save your people, and bless your inheritance: and take care of them, and lift them up for ever.
