Tingtoeng 53

1 [Aka mawt ham Mahalath dongkah David hlohlai] Hlang ang loh amah lungbuei neh Pathen om pawh a ti. A poci uh dongah dumlai la tueilaeh kap tih, a then aka saii om pawh.

To him that excelleth on Mahalath. A Psalme of David to give instruction. The foole hath saide in his heart, There is no God. they haue corrupted and done abominable wickednes: there is none that doeth good.

2 Vaan lamkah Pathen loh hlang ca rhoek te hmuh hamla a dan. Pathen aka toem lungming khaw om van nim?

God looked downe from heauen vpon the children of men, to see if there were any that would vnderstand, and seeke God.

3 Anih loh hlang boeih te tun a balkhong sak tih a rhonging uh coeng dongah hnothen aka saii om pawh. Pakhat khaw om pawh.

Euery one is gone backe: they are altogether corrupt: there is none that doth good, no not one.

4 Boethae saii tih buh caak bangla ka pilnam aka yoop rhoek loh Pathen a khue uh pawt te ming uh pawt nim?

Doe not the workers of iniquitie knowe that they eate vp my people as they eate bread? they call not vpon God.

5 Nang aka rhaeh thil kah rhuhrhong te Pathen loh a yaal dongah birhihnah om pawt dae birhihnah neh birhih uh. Amih te Pathen loh a hnawt dongah yah a bai.

There they were afraide for feare, where no feare was: for God hath scattered the bones of him that besieged thee: thou hast put them to confusion, because God hath cast them off.

6 Amah loh Israel kah khangnah te Zion lamkah han khuen tih a pilnam kah thongtla te Pathen loh ham bal puei vaengah Jakob omngaih saeh lamtah Israel kohoe saeh.

Oh giue saluation vnto Israel out of Zion: when God turneth the captiuitie of his people, then Iaakob shall reioyce, and Israel shalbe glad.
