Tingtoeng 57
1 [Aka mawt ham Saul taeng lamloh lungko khuila a yong vaengkah David kah, “Phae Boeh” Laa] Pathen aw kai n'rhen dae, kai n'rhen dae. Ka hinglu loh nang dongah ying tih talnah he a poeng hil, na phae hlip ah ka ying ni.
To the chief Musician. 'Destroy not.' Of David. Michtam; when he fled from Saul in the cave. Be gracious unto me, O God, be gracious unto me; for my soul taketh refuge in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings do I take refuge, until the calamities be overpast.
2 Kai ham hma aka khap Pathen te Sangkoek Khohni, Pathen la ka khue.
I will call unto God, the Most High; unto God that performeth [all] for me.
3 Vaan lamkah han tueih tih kai n'khang, kai aka hloem khaw a veet. (Selah) Pathen loh a sitlohnah neh a oltak te a tueih.
He will send from the heavens and save me; he hath covered with reproach him that would swallow me up. (Selah) God hath sent forth his loving-kindness and his truth.
4 Ka hinglu he hlang capa boeih aka hlawp, sathuengnu rhoek lakli ah ka yalh. A no khaw caai neh thaltang la om tih a lai te cunghang bangla haat.
My soul is in the midst of lions; I lie down [among] them that breathe out flames, the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.
5 Pathen he vaan rhoek soah pomsang pai saeh. Namah kah thangpomnah loh diklai pum khuk thil saeh.
Be exalted above the heavens, O God; let thy glory be above all the earth!
6 Ka khokan ah lawk a tung uh tih ka hinglu loh duengyai sut. Kai hmai kah a vueh uh rhom khui ah cungku uh. (Selah)
They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul was bowed down: they have digged a pit before me; they are fallen into the midst thereof. (Selah)
7 Ka lungbuei cikngae ngawn Pathen aw. Ka lungbuei cikngae neh ka hlai vetih ka tingtoeng ni.
My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing, yea, I will sing psalms.
8 Ka thangpomnah aw haenghang laeh. Thangpa neh rhotoeng haenghang laeh. Mincang ah haenghang pawn ni.
Awake, my glory; awake, lute and harp: I will wake the dawn.
9 Ka Boeipa nang te pilnam rhoek taengah kan uem vetih, namtu rhoek taengah kan tingtoeng ni.
I will give thee thanks among the peoples, O Lord; of thee will I sing psalms among the nations:
10 Na sitlohnah loh vaan duela, na uepomnah loh khomong khaw a puet.
For thy loving-kindness is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.
11 Pathen he vaan rhoek boeih soah pomsang pai saeh. Namah kah thangpomnah loh diklai pum khuk thil saeh.
Be exalted above the heavens, O God; let thy glory be above all the earth!
