Tingtoeng 38
1 David kah ngaidamnah Tingtoenglung Aw BOEIPA, na thinhul neh kai n'tluung boel lamtah na kosi neh kai n'toel boeh.
A Psalm of David, to bring to remembrance. O LORD, rebuke me not in thy wrath: neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
2 Na thaltang loh kai dongah sap ha tlaeh tih na kut loh kai n'nan.
For thy arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand falleth heavy upon me.
3 Nang kah kosi dongah ka pum he hlang la om voelpawh. Ka tholh dongah ka rhuh a sading pawh.
There is no soundness in my flesh because of thy anger; neither is there any rest in my bones because of my sin.
4 Kai kathaesainah loh ka lu hang khuk tih, kai ham hnophueih bangla a rhih loh n'nan.
For my iniquities have gone over my head: as an heavy burden they are too heavy for me.
5 Ka anglat dongah, ka boengha rhong tih rhim coeng.
My wounds stink and are corrupt because of my foolishness.
6 Ka ngam paihaeh tangkik hil khohnin yungah kopang neh ka van.
I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.
7 Ka uen khaw boeih duih tih, ka pum he hlang la om voelpaawh.
For my loins are filled with a loathsome disease: and there is no soundness in my flesh.
8 Ka lungmit tih ka paep dongah, lungbuei phoenanah neh mat ka kawk.
I am feeble and grievously broken: I have roared by reason of the disquietness of my heart.
9 Ka ngaihlihnah boeih he, ka Boeipa namah taengah ka hal tih, ka hueinah he namah taeng lamloh a thuh moenih.
Lord, all my desire is before thee; and my groaning is not hid from thee.
10 Ka lungbuei a thimpom tih ka thadueng hnoeng. Te dongah ka mik khaw tueng pawh.
My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of my eyes, that also is gone from me.
11 Ka tlohtat dongah ka lungnah ka paya rhoek loh saisai m'pai tak tih ka huiko khaw a hla lam ni a pai uh coeng.
My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my affliction; and my kinsmen stand afar off.
12 Ka hinglu aka mae rhoek loh n'hlaeh tih, kai yoethae puei ham aka tlap rhoek loh a talnah te a thui uh. Te dongah hlangthai palat rhoek loh hnin at puet n'taeng uh.
They also that seek after my life lay snares for me: and they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and imagine deceits all the day long.
13 Tedae kai tah hnapang bangla ka ya voelpawt tih olmueh loh a ka a ang pawt bangla ka om.
But I, as a deaf man, heard not; and I was as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.
14 Te dongah aka ya thai pawt tih a ka ah toelthamnah aka om pawt hlang bangla ka om.
Thus I was as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no reproofs.
15 BOEIPA nang dongah ka hangdang tih nang loh nan doo bitni ka Boeipa ka Pathen aw
For in thee, O LORD, do I hope: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God.
16 Te dongah, “Ka kho he a paloe vaengah kai n'kohah thil uh tih kai soah pomsang uh ve,” ka ti.
For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.
17 Cungdonah ham ka tawn uh tih ka nganboh loh kamah taengah om taitu.
For I am ready to halt, and my sorrow is continually before me.
18 Te dongah kai kathaesainah te ka doek. Kamah kah tholhnah dongah ka mawn.
For I will declare my iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin.
19 Tedae ka thunkha rhoek kah hingnah tah ting tih a honghi dongah ka lunguet loh pungtai.
But my enemies are lively, and they are strong: and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.
20 Te dongah a then te a thae neh aka thuung rhoek loh kai n'khingkhoek vaengah a then te kamah loh ka vai rhoela ka vai.
They also that render evil for good are my adversaries; because I follow the thing that is good.
21 Ka BOEIPA Pathen aw, kai n'hno boel lamtah kai taeng lamkah n'lakhla tak boeh.
Forsake me not, O LORD: O my God, be not far from me.
22 Kai bomkung la ha tawn uh laeh ka loeihnah Boeipa.
Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation.
