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 thee do I cry, O LORD! O my rock! be not silent to me, Lest, if thou answer me not, I become like those who 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.
Hear the voice of my supplication, when I cry unto thee, When I lift up my hands to thy most holy sanctuary!
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 me not away with the impious, and with evil-doers, Who speak peace to their neighbors, while mischief is 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 deeds, and the wickedness of their doings; Give them according to the work of their hands; Render to them their desert!
5 BOEIPA kah thaphu neh a kut dongkah bibi a yakming uh pawt dongah amih te a koengloeng vetih koep suem mahpawh.
For they regard not the doings of the LORD, nor the work of his hands; Therefore will he destroy them, and not again build them up.
6 Ka huithuinah ol a yaak dongah BOEIPA te a yoethen saeh.
Praised be the LORD, for he hath heard the voice of my supplications!
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 strength and my shield; My heart trusteth in him, and he helpeth me; Therefore doth my heart exult, And in my song I will praise him.
8 BOEIPA tah amih kah sarhi neh, a koelh hlang kah khangnah lunghim ni.
Jehovah is the strength of his people; He is the protecting shield 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 thy people, and bless thine inheritance; Feed them also, and build them up for ever!
