Tingtoeng 63
1 Judah khosoek ah a om vaengkah David tingtoenglung Pathen namah tah ka Pathen ni. Namah ni kan toem coeng. Namah te ka hinglu loh halthi tih, ka pumsa loh namah te a hue, Diklai ah he rhamrhae neh buhmueh rhathih, tui mueh la om.
A Psalm of David, in his being in the wilderness of Judah. O God, Thou [art] my God, earnestly do I seek Thee, Thirsted for Thee hath my soul, Longed for Thee hath my flesh, In a land dry and weary, without waters.
2 Tedae na sarhi neh na thangpomnah hmuh ham hmuencim ah nang kan dan.
So in the sanctuary I have seen Thee, To behold Thy strength and Thine honour.
3 Na sitlohnah he hingnah lakah then tih ka hmuilai he nang taengah domyok ti uh saeh.
Because better [is] Thy kindness than life, My lips do praise Thee.
4 Te dongah ka hingnah neh nang kan uem vetih, na ming neh ka kut ka thueng ni.
So I bless Thee in my life, in Thy name I lift up my hands.
5 A th a neh maehhloi bangla ka hinglu hah vetih ka ka loh omngaih laa kah hmuilai neh a thangthen ni.
As [with] milk and fatness is my soul satisfied, And [with] singing lips doth my mouth praise.
6 Ka rhaenghmuen lamkah loh nang kan poek vaengah nang te hlaempang pakhat puet kan mangtuk.
If I have remembered Thee on my couch, In the watches — I meditate on Thee.
7 Kai ham bomnah la na om dongah na phae hlip ah ka tamhoe.
For Thou hast been a help to me, And in the shadow of Thy wings I sing.
8 Nang dongah ka hinglu pangnal tih kai he na bantang kut loh n'duel.
Cleaved hath my soul after Thee, On me hath Thy right hand taken hold.
9 Amih loh ka hinglu pocinah ham a mae uh dae diklai hmui la kun uh bitni.
And they who for desolation seek my soul, Go in to the lower parts of the earth.
10 cunghang kut ah pat uh vetih maetang buham la om uh ni.
They cause him to run on the edge of the sword, A portion for foxes they are.
11 Tedae, manghai tah Pathen rhang neh a kohoe ni. Amah dongah ol aka caeng boeih te a thangthen vaengah laithae aka thui kah a ka te a biing pah ni.
And the king doth rejoice in God, Boast himself doth every one swearing by Him, But stopped is the mouth of those speaking lies!
