1 Benjamin capa Kusah kah olka kongah BOEIPA taengah a hlai David kah Omdamlaa Ka BOEIPA Pathen, namah dongah ka ying. Kai aka hloem rhoek boeih taeng lamkah kai n'khang lamtah kai n'huul dae.
“A psalm of David, which he sang to Jehovah, on account of the reproaches of Cush the Benjamite.” O Jehovah, my God! to thee do I look for help; Save me from them that persecute me, and deliver me!
2 Sathueng bangla ka hinglu he pat a ngaeh vetih, aka huul om pawt ve.
Lest mine enemy tear me like a lion; Lest he rend me in pieces, while there is none to help.
3 Ka BOEIPA Pathen, hekah he ka saii mai tih, ka kut ah dumlai om mai ni.
O Jehovah, my God! if I have done this, —If there be iniquity upon my hands,
4 Kai aka thuung te a thae la ka thuung tih, lunglilungla la kai aka daengdaeh te ka rheth atah,
If I have rendered evil to my friend, Or have despoiled him that without cause is mine enemy, —
5 Ka hinglu he thunkha thunghling loh han hloem tih n'kae vaengah, ka hingnah he diklai ah taelh uh saeh lamtah, kai kah thangpomnah khaw, laipi khuila khueh saeh. (Selah)
Let my adversary pursue and take me; Let him trample me to the ground, And lay me prostrate in the dust! (Pause)
6 Thoo lah BOEIPA kai taengah aka daengdaeh thinpom rhoek he, na thintoek neh pai thil lah. Haenghang lamtah, kai ham tiktamnah uen lah.
Arise, O LORD! in thine anger; Lift thyself up against the rage of mine enemies; Awake for me, ordain judgment!
7 Te dongah namtu rhaengpuei loh, namah m'vael saeh lamtah, amih te hmuen sang lamkah ngol thil.
Let the assembly of the nations compass thee about, And on their account return to the height!
8 BOEIPA loh pilnam rhoek ke laitloek pah saeh. Ka duengnah neh ka thincaknah vanbangla, ka lai han tloek lah BOEIPA.
The LORD judgeth the nations; Judge me, O LORD! according to my righteousness, And requite me according to my integrity!
9 Halang rhoek kah boethae tah paltham suidae aka dueng te na cak sak. Te dongah duengnah Pathen loh lungbuei neh kuel ni a loepdak.
Oh, let the wickedness of the wicked be at an end; But establish the righteous! For the righteous God trieth the heart and the reins.
10 Lungbuei aka thuem kah khangkung Pathen tah kai kah photling ni.
My shield is with God, Who saveth the upright in heart.
11 Pathen he a dueng la lai a tloek neh khohnin takuem ah kosi aka sah Pathen ni.
God is a righteous judge, And a God who is angry every day.
12 Yut pawt koinih a cunghang khaw a tah vetih, a lii khaw a phuk vetih a nuen ni.
If he do not desist, He sharpeneth his sword; He bendeth his bow, and maketh it ready;
13 Te dongah amah ham dueknah tubael a tawn tih thaltang aka alh te a saii.
He prepareth for him the instruments of death; He shooteth his burning arrows.
14 Boethae te a yom tih thakthaenah la a vawn dongah a hong a hi ni a cun coeng ke.
Behold, he travailed with iniquity, And conceived mischief, But hath brought forth disappointment!
15 Vaam te a vueh tih a too dae amah loh a saii vaam khuiah amah cungku.
He made a pit and digged it. And is fallen into the ditch which he made.
16 A thakthaenah te a lu dongla mael vetih a kah kuthlahnah khaw a luki ah suntla ni.
His mischief returneth upon his own head, And his violence cometh down upon his own skull.
17 BOEIPA kah a duengnah te ka uem vetih Khohni BOEIPA ming te ka tingtoeng ni.
I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness; I will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high.
