Tingtoeng 36
1 [Aka mawt ham BOEIPA sal David kah] Halang kah boekoek te ka thinko lungbuei khui kah olphong ah tah, a mik hmuh ah Pathen birhihnah khueh pawh.
For the chief musician. A psalm of David the servant of Yahweh. An evil man speaks of his transgression from deep in his heart, there is no fear of God in his eyes.
2 A mik neh amah kah thaesainah hmuh ham, ka thiinah tila amah te hoem.
For he comforts himself, thinking that his sin will not be discovered and be hated.
3 A ka dongkah ol tah boethae neh thailatnah la coeng tih, a then te cangbam hamla a toeng.
His words are sinful and deceitful; he does not want to be wise and do good.
4 A thingkong dongah boethae te a moeh. Long then pawt ah pai tih a thae te hnawt pawh.
While he lies in bed, he plans ways to sin; he sets out on an evil way; he does not reject evil.
5 Aw BOEIPA na sitlohnah loh vaan duela a pha. Na uepomnah loh khomong a pha.
Your covenant faithfulness, Yahweh, reaches to the heavens; your loyalty reaches to the clouds.
6 Na duengnah tah Pathen tlang bangla om tih na laitloeknah te dung tangkik. Hlang neh rhamsa he BOEIPA nang loh na khang.
Your righteousness is like the mountains of God; your judgments are like the great deep. Yahweh, you preserve both mankind and the animals.
7 Pathen namah kah sitlohnah he bahoeng a phu om tih hlang capa rhoek loh na phae hlip ah ying uh.
How precious is your covenant faithfulness, God! Humanity takes refuge under the shadow of your wings.
8 Na im kah maehhloi dongah hmilhmal uh tih namah kah omthennah soklong tui te amih na tul.
They feast upon the abundance of your house; you let them drink from the river of your delights.
9 Namah taengah hingnah thunsih om tih, namah kah vangnah dongah vangnah ka hmuh uh.
For with you is the fountain of life; in your light we will see light.
10 Nang aka ming rhoek taengah na sitlohnah hing sak lamtah lungbuei aka thuem taengah na duengnah om sak.
Extend your covenant faithfulness fully to those who know you, your defense to the upright of heart.
11 Hoemnah kho loh kai m'pha boel saeh lamtah halang kut te kai taengah vikvawk boel saeh.
Do not let the foot of the arrogant man come near to me. Do not let the hand of the wicked drive me away.
12 Boethae aka saii rhoek te pahoi cungku uh tih a bung uh dongah tlai uh thai pawt lah ko.
Over there the evildoers have fallen; they are knocked down and are not able to get up.
