Tingtoeng 40

1 Aka mawt ham David kah Tingtoenglung BOEIPA te ka lamtawn rhoela ka lamtawn dongah kai taengla ha hooi tih ka pang ol a yaak.

I waited patiently for the LORD; and he inclined to me, and heard my cry.

2 Te dongah longlonah tangrhom, sihnok tangnong lamkah kai n'koeih tih ka kho te thaelpang dongla m'pai sak phoeiah ka khokan a cikngae sak.

He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet on a rock, and established my goings.

3 Te phoeiah mamih Pathen koehnah ham laa thai te ka ka dongah han khueh tih a yet loh a hmuh uh vaengah a rhih uh vetih BOEIPA dongah pangtung uh ni.

And he has put a new song in my mouth, even praise to our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.

4 BOEIPA te amah kah pangtungnah la aka khueh hlang te a yoethen tih hlang oek neh laithae vilvak taengla mael pawh.

Blessed is that man that makes the LORD his trust, and respects not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.

5 Aw BOEIPA ka Pathen namah loh namah kah khobaerhambae muep na saii dongah kaimih ham na kopoek te nang taengah aka tae pawh. Ka puen tih ka thui te ka doek lakah tahoeng coeng.

Many, O LORD my God, are your wonderful works which you have done, and your thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order to you: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.

6 Hmueih neh khosaa te na hmae moenih. Kai ham hna nan vueh tih hmueihhlutnah neh boirhaem khaw na hoe moenih.

Sacrifice and offering you did not desire; my ears have you opened: burnt offering and sin offering have you not required.

7 Te dongah, “Cabu cayol khuiah kai ham a daek bangla ka lo coeng tih

Then said I, See, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,

8 Ka Boeipa Pathen na kolonah saii ham ka hmae tih na olkhueng loh ka ko khui ah om coeng he,” ka ti.

I delight to do your will, O my God: yes, your law is within my heart.

9 Duengnah te hlangping a yet taengah ka phong tih ka kam ka khuem pawt he BOEIPA namah loh na ming.

I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: see, I have not refrained my lips, O LORD, you know.

10 Na duengnah te ka lungbuei khui ah ka thuh pawh. Na uepomnah neh loeihnah te ka thui coeng. Na sitlohnah neh uepomnah te hlangping a yet taengah ka phah pawh.

I have not hid your righteousness within my heart; I have declared your faithfulness and your salvation: I have not concealed your loving kindness and your truth from the great congregation.

11 BOEIPA nang loh na haidamnah te, kai taengah na sihtaeh moenih. Na sitlohnah neh na oltak loh, kai n'kueinah yoeyah saeh.

Withhold not you your tender mercies from me, O LORD: let your loving kindness and your truth continually preserve me.

12 Tae lek pawt hil ah yoethae loh kai taengah a li. Kamah kathaesainah loh kamah n'kae dogah sawt la huut pawh. Ka lu dongkah sam lakah yet tih ka lungbuei ka tlo-oeng sut.

For innumerable evils have compassed me about: my iniquities have taken hold on me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of my head: therefore my heart fails me.

13 Aw BOEIPA, kai huul ham te m'moeithen mai dae. Aw BOEIPA, kai bomkung la ha tawn uh dae.

Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me: O LORD, make haste to help me.

14 Ka hinglu khoengvoep ham aka mae rhoek te yak uh saeh lamtah a hmai tal uh boeih saeh. Kai kah yoethae aka omtoem rhoek khaw a hnuk la balkhong uh saeh lamtah a hmaithae uh saeh.

Let them be ashamed and confounded together that seek after my soul to destroy it; let them be driven backward and put to shame that wish me evil.

15 Amih kah yahpohnah dongah kai te, “Ahuei ah uei,” aka ti rhoek te hal uh saeh.

Let them be desolate for a reward of their shame that say to me, Aha, aha.

16 Nang aka tlap boeih namah dongah a ngaingaih la a kohoe uh saeh lamtah namah kah loeihnah aka ngaih rhoek tah, “BOEIPA te pomsang pai saeh,” ti uh yoeyah saeh.

Let all those that seek you rejoice and be glad in you: let such as love your salvation say continually, The LORD be magnified.

17 Ka mangdaeng tih ka khodaeng dae kai he Boeipa loh n'thoelh nawn saeh. Kai kah bomkung neh kai aka hlawt ka Pathen nang na uelh moenih.

But I am poor and needy; yet the Lord thinks on me: you are my help and my deliverer; make no tarrying, O my God.
