Tingtoeng 54

1 Rhotoeng neh aka mawt ham, “Ziphim loh Saul taengla cet tih kaimih taengah David a thuh moenih, a ti nah vaengkah, David hlohlai Aw Pathen na ming neh kai n'khang lamtah, na thayung thamal neh kai n'tang sak.

To the chief music-maker; on Neginoth. Maschil. Of David. When the Ziphites came and said to Saul, Is not David keeping himself secret among us? Let your name be my salvation, O God; let my cause be judged by your strength.

2 Aw Pathen, ka thangthuinah he ya lamtah, ka ka lamkah ol he hnatun lah.

Let my prayer come before you, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth.

3 Hlanglak rhoek kai taengah tlai uh tih, hlanghaeng neh a hmai kah Pathen te, a nawt na uh kolla ka hinglu a mae uh. (Selah)

For men who are going after me have come out against me, violent men are purposing to take my soul; they have not put God before their eyes. (Selah)

4 Kai he Pathen loh m'bom tih, ka hinglu aka talong rhoek taengah ka Boeipa om ke.

See, God is my helper: the Lord is the great supporter of my soul.

5 Ka lungawn rhoek soah a thae neh thuung rhoe thuung lamtah, na oltak neh amih te biit lah.

Let the evil works of my haters come back on them again; let them be cut off by your good faith.

6 Na taengah kothoh te, kan nawn saeh lamtah na then dongah BOEIPA nang ming te ka uem eh.

Freely will I make my offerings to you; I will give praise to your name, O Lord, for it is good.

7 Citcai cungkuem lamkah kai n'huul tih, ka thunkha rhoek te ka mik loh a sawt.

Because it has been my saviour from all my trouble; and my eyes have seen the punishment of my haters.
