For the Chief Musician. To the tune of “The Lily of the Covenant.” A teaching poem by David, when he fought with Aram Naharaim and with Aram Zobah, and Joab returned, and killed twelve thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt. God, you have rejected us. You have broken us down. You have been angry. Restore us, again.
2 Diklai na hinghuen tih phak na boe. A tuen vaengkah a hma te hoeih sak lah.
You have made the land tremble. You have torn it. Mend its fractures, for it quakes.
3 Na pilnam te mangkhak la na hmuh tih ngaengainah misurtui te kaimih nan tul.
You have shown your people hard things. You have made us drink the wine that makes us stagger.
4 Nang aka rhih ham tah, tiktam hmai la rhaelrham saeh tila rholik na thoh pah. (Selah)
You have given a banner to those who fear you, that it may be displayed because of the truth. (Selah)
5 Na lungnah rhoek te na bantang neh khang lamtah pumcum uh van saeh. Te dongah kaimih he n'doo lamtah kamah khaw n'doo mai.
So that your beloved may be delivered, save with your right hand, and answer us.
6 Pathen loh a hmuencim lamkah, “Ka sundaep vetih, Shekhem te ka boe phoeiah Sukkoth kol te ka suem ni.
God has spoken from his sanctuary: “I will triumph. I will divide Shechem, and measure out the valley of Succoth.
7 Gilead he kai kah tih, Manasseh khaw kamah kah. Ephraim khaw ka lu kah lunghim tih, Judah khaw ka taem.
Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine. Ephraim also is the defence of my head. Judah is my sceptre.
8 Moab tah kai kah tuihluknah am ni. Edom soah ka khokhom ka voeih tih Philistia te ka yuhui thil,” a ti.
Moab is my wash basin. I will throw my sandal on Edom. I shout in triumph over Philistia.”
9 Vongup khopuei la ulong kai n'khuen eh? Edom la ulong kai m'mawt eh?
Who will bring me into the strong city? Who has led me to Edom?
10 Pathen nang loh kaimih nan hlahpham pawt tih Pathen namah te kaimih kah caempuei rhoek taengla na pawk moenih a?
Haven’t you, God, rejected us? You don’t go out with our armies, God.
11 Hlang kah loeihnah a poeyoek la a om dongah rhal taengah khaw kai he bomnah m'pae lah.
Give us help against the adversary, for the help of man is vain.
12 Pathen neh caem ka tloek rhoi vetih ka rhal ka suntlae ni.
Through God we will do valiantly, for it is he who will tread down our adversaries.
