Tingtoeng 41
1 Aka mawt ham David kah Tingtoenglung Yoethaenah hnin ah tattloel te aka cangbam tah a yoethen. Anih te BOEIPA loh a loeih sak.
To the Chief Musician. A Melody of David. How happy is he that is attentive to the poor, In the day of calamity, will Yahweh deliver him:
2 BOEIPA loh anih te a dawndah vetih a hlun ni. Khohmuen nen khaw uem la uem vetih, a thunkha kah hinglu la anih te tloeng mahpawh.
Yahweh, will preserve him and keep him alive, And he shall be pronounced happy in the land, Do not then give him up at the desire of his enemies!
3 BOEIPA loh kolet soengca dongkah te khaw a duel. A thingkong boeih te a tlohtat lamloh na palet bitni.
Yahweh, will sustain him upon the bed of sickness, All his couch, hast thou transformed in his disease.
4 Kai loh, “BOEIPA, nang taengah ka tholh oeh tih, kai n'rhen lamtah ka hinglu he hoeih sak lah,” ka ti.
I, said—O Yahweh, show me favour, heal thou my soul, for I have sinned against thee:
5 Ka thunkha rhoek loh kai he, “Me vaengah nim a duek vetih a ming a paltham ve,” tila a thae a thui.
Mine enemies, speak ill of me, When will he die, and his name perish?
6 Hmuh hamla aka pawk boeih tah a lungbuei khaw a poeyoek lam ni a cal. Amah ham boethae a coi tih, vongvoel la a pha neh a thui.
And, if he have come to see me, Falsehood, doth he speak, His own heart, gathereth iniquity to itself, he goeth forth, abroad he telleth it.
7 Ka lunguet boeih loh kai he a thae la m'moeh uh dongah kai taengah tun sisuk uh.
Together—against me, do all who hate me whisper among themselves, Against me, devise they hurt for me.
8 “Anih tah a olka aka muen loh a kap thil tih a yalh atah thoh hamla koei mahpawh.
An infliction of the Abandoned One hath been fixed upon him, and, now that he hath lien down, he will not again rise.
9 Ka ngaimongnah hlang te tah amah dongah ka pangtung dae, ka buh aka ca long ni kai taengah a khodil a taloeh.
Even the man whom I used to salute, in whom I put confidence, who used to eat my bread, —hath magnified his heel against me!
10 Tedae BOEIPA nang loh kai n'rhen lamtah amih khoboe te thuung ham kai n'thoh lah.
But, thou, O Yahweh, show me favour and raise me up, That I may repay them.
11 Ka thunkha rhoek te kai soah a yuhui pawt dongah kai taengah na naem te ka ming.
Hereby, do I know that thou delightest in me, In that mine enemy shall not raise a shout over me.
12 Kai khaw kamah kah thincaknah neh kai nan duel tih kumhal namah hmai ah kai nan khueh.
But, as for me, In my blamelessness, hast thou held me fast, And hast caused me to stand before thee unto times age-abiding.
13 Israel kah Pathen BOEIPA tah kumhal lamkah kumhal due a yoethen pai. Amen neh Amen.
Blessed be Yahweh, the God of Israel, From the age that is past, even unto the age yet to come: Amen and Amen!
