God, save me from my enemies! Protect me from those who want to attack me!
2 Boethae aka saii rhoek kut lamkah kai n'huul lamtah hlang thii aka haal rhoek kut lamkah kai n'khang lah.
Rescue me from men who want to do what is wicked, men who are murderers!
3 Ka hinglu te a rhongngol thil uh coeng ke. Ka boekoek khaw om pawt tih BOEIPA ka tholhnah khaw om pawt dae hlangtlung rhoek loh kai m'mae uh.
Look! They are waiting to kill me! Fierce men have gathered to assault me. Yahweh, they are doing that even though I have not done what is wrong!
4 Thaesainah om pawt dae ha yong uh tih tawn uh. Kai aka doe ham long tah haenghang lamtah hmuh lah.
It is not because I have committed any sin [against them] that they run and get ready to attack me.
5 Te dongah namtom boeih te cawh hamla, caempuei Pathen, BOEIPA, Israel Pathen namah mah thoo lamtah boethae neh aka hnukpoh boeih te rhen boeh. (Selah)
Yahweh my God, commander of the armies of heaven, the one we Israelis [worship], arise and punish the [ungodly/heathen people of] all the nations; do not be merciful to those [wicked people] who have (acted treacherously toward/secretly planned to harm) us.
6 Hlaemhmah ah amih loh ha mael uh tih ui bangla a phit uh doel a khopuei a hil uh.
They return each evening, snarling like vicious dogs [SIM] as they prowl around this city.
7 A hmui kah cunghang ke, “Unim aka ya,” tila a ka lamkah ol te a thaa uh van ke?
They loudly say terrible things; they say [MTY] many things that [injure people like] [MET] swords do, but they think, “No one will [RHQ] hear us!”
8 Tedae BOEIPA nang loh amih te na nueih thil tih namtom boeih ke na tamdaeng.
But Yahweh, you laugh at them. You (scoff at/ridicule) the [people of the pagan] nations.
9 Anih kah sarhi vanbangla, Pathen khaw kai ham imsang la a om dongah namah ni kan rhingda.
God, I have confidence in you because you are very strong; you are my refuge.
10 Kai ham sitlohnah kah sitlohnah Pathen loh kai n'doe ni. Ka lungawn rhoek soah Pathen loh kai n'sawt sak ni.
Because you love me, you will come to save me; you will allow me to watch while you defeat my enemies.
11 Amih te ngawn boel mai, ka pilnam te hnilh ve. Ka Boeipa, kaimih kah photling aw, na thadueng neh amih te poengdoe sak lamtah suntlak sak.
But do not kill them [immediately] in order that my people will not forget [how you punished them]! [Instead], Lord, [you who are like a] shield [that protects us] [MET], scatter them by your power, and [then] defeat them.
12 Thaephoeinah neh laithae a doek uh dongah amamih ka kah tholhnah, amamih hmui kah olka neh amamih kah hoemdamnah dongah man uh saeh.
Because what they say [MTY] is sinful, allow them to be trapped for being proud. Because they are [always] cursing and telling lies,
13 Amih te kosi dongah muei muei tih a milh daengah ni Jakob neh diklai a bawt duela aka taemrhai he Pathen ni tila aming uh eh. (Selah)
because you are angry, get rid of them; destroy them completely in order that people will know that you rule over us, your Israeli people, and that you rule over all the earth.
14 Hlaemhmah ah ha mael uh bal saeh lamtah ui bangla a phit uh doel a khopuei hil uh bal saeh.
My enemies return each evening, snarling like [vicious] dogs as they prowl around this city.
15 Amih loh buhtuen la poeng poeng uh tih a hah uh pawt vaengah rhaehba uh sut.
They roam around, searching for food; and if they do not find enough, they growl.
16 Tedae kai tah, na sarhi te ka hlai vetih, namah te kai ham imsang neh kai taengkah puencak tue vaengah thuhaelnah la na om dongah, na sitlohnah khaw mincang ah ka tamhoe puei ni.
But [as for me], I will sing about your power; [every] morning I will sing joyfully about your faithfully loving [us]. I will sing about how you protected me when I was [very] distressed.
17 Ka sitlohnah Pathen neh ka imsang Pathen ham tah nang taengah ka sarhi ka tingtoeng.
God, you are the one who enables me to be strong; you are my refuge; you faithfully love me.
