Tingtoeng 58
1 Aka mawt ham David kah, “Phae boeh “laa Duengnah he olmueh na ti uh tih, hlang ca rhoek taengah vanatnah neh lai na tloek uh tang a?
“For the leader of the music. To the tune of “Do not destroy.” A psalm of David.” Do ye, indeed, administer justice faithfully, ye mighty ones? Do ye judge with uprightness, ye sons of men?
2 Tedae, lungbuei neh dumlai na saii. Diklai ah kuthlahnah te na kut dongah na thuek.
Nay, in your hearts ye contrive iniquity; Your hands weigh out violence in the land!
3 Halang rhoek tah bung khui lamloh kholong uh coeng tih, laithae aka thui rhoek khaw a bungko khui lamloh kho a hmang uh.
The wicked are estranged, from their very birth; The liars go astray as soon as they are born.
4 Amih kah kosi te rhul sue phek la om tih minta hnapang bangla a hna a buem.
They have poison, like the poison of a serpent; Like the deaf adder's, which stoppeth her ear;
5 Te vaengah aka hloih thai rhoek loh a hloih vaengkah a sisuk ol te ya pawh.
Which listeneth not to the voice of the charmer, And of the sorcerer, skilful in incantations.
6 Pathen aw, amih ka dongkah a no te koengloeng pah. BOEIPA aw sathueng kah kamkenno te thuk pah.
Break their teeth, O God! in their mouths! Break out the great teeth of the lions, O LORD!
7 Amih te tui aka long bangla yip kak uh saeh. Thaltang, thaltang a phuk te haih pah tangloeng saeh.
May they melt like waters, which flow away; May their arrows, when they aim them, be as if cut in pieces!
8 Hnap neh aka thoeih lainat neh huta aka rhumpu bangla khomik hmu uh boel saeh.
May they be like the snail, which melteth away as it goeth; Like the abortion of a woman, that seeth not the sun!
9 Na umam loh a yakming uh hlan ah cangpalam loh a yawn bangla hling khaw, thinghing khaw thingkoh khaw yawn saeh.
Before your pots feel the heat of the thorns, Whether fresh, or burning, may they be blown away!
10 Phulohnah a hmuh vaengah hlang dueng loh a kohoe vetih halang kah thii neh a kho a silh ni.
The righteous shall rejoice, when he seeth such vengeance; He shall bathe his feet in the blood of the wicked.
11 Te vaengah pilnam loh, “Aka dueng ham thapang om pai. Diklai ah Pathen loh lai a tloek pai,” a ti ni.
Then shall men say, “Truly there is a reward for the righteous! Truly there is a God who is judge upon the earth!”
