Tingtoeng 32
1 David kah Hlohlai Tholh a vuei pah tih, dumlai a hlah pah te a yoethen.
Those whom God has forgiven for rebelling against him, whose stains [MET] of sin have been wiped away, are truly blessed [by God]!
2 BOEIPA loh anih taengah thaesainah te poek pah pawt tih a mueihla te vuelvaeknah dongah aka om pawt hlang tah a yoethen.
Those whose record of their sins Yahweh has erased, those who no longer do deceitful things, are [truly] blessed [by God]!
3 Hil ka phah tih hnin at puet kah ka kawknah loh ka rhuh hmawn.
When I did not confess my sins, (my body/I) was very weak and sick, and I groaned (all day long/continually).
4 Khoyin khothaih kai he na kut loh n'nan tih khohal kholing kah ka hlantui la poeh. (Selah)
Day and night, [Yahweh], you [SYN] punished me severely. My strength drained away like [water that] ([evaporates/dries up]) on a hot summer [day].
5 Ka tholh he nang kan ming sak tih kai kah thaesainah khaw ka hlipdah moenih. “Ka dumlai te BOEIPA taengah ka uem ni, “ka ti vaengah ka tholhnah neh thaesainah te namah loh nan phueih. (Selah)
[Then/Finally] I admitted/confessed my sins to you; I stopped trying to hide them. (Think about that!) I said [to myself], “I will confess to Yahweh the wrong things that I have done.” And [when I confessed them], you forgave me, so now I (am no longer guilty/will no longer be punished) for my sins.
6 Te dongah hlangcim boeih loh a tue a om vaengah namah taengla thangthui saeh. Te daengah ni lungpook tui a yet vaengah anih te a pha pawt eh.
Therefore, the people who are godly should pray to you [when they] (realize that they have sinned/have difficulties). If they pray to you, [difficulties] [MET] will not overwhelm them [like] a great flood.
7 Nang tah kai ham hlipyingnah ni. Rhal khui lamkah kai he nan kueinah dongah kai hlawt ham lumlaa neh nan vael. (Selah)
You are [like] a place where I can hide [from my enemies] [MET], you protect me from troubles, and you (enable me/[put people around me who will enable me]) to shout, praising you for saving me [from my enemies].
8 Nang kan cangbam sak vetih caeh long te nang kan thuinuet ni. Kan uen vetih ka mik te nang soah ka khueh ni.
[Yahweh says], “I will teach you about how you should conduct your life. I will instruct you and watch over you.
9 Ba aka yakming pawh marhang neh muli-marhang bangla om boeh. Anih te ka kah a kam te kamrhui neh na tu pawt koinih nang taengla halo mahpawh.
Do not be stupid like horses and mules that do not have understanding; they need (bits/pieces of metal put in their mouths) and (bridles/ropes fastened to their head) so they will go in the direction you want them to go.”
10 Halang ham nganboh yet dae BOEIPA dongah aka pangtung tah sitlohnah loh a vael.
Wicked people will have many [troubles that will make them] sad, but those who trust in Yahweh will experience him faithfully loving them all the time.
11 BOEIPA ah omngaih uh lamtah kohoe la om uh lah. Lungbuei aka dueng neh aka thuem boeih loh tamhoe uh lah.
[So, all] you righteous people, rejoice about what Yahweh [has done for you]; you whose (inner beings/lives) are pure, be glad and shout joyfully!
