Tingtoeng 70

1 Aka mawt ham David kah a ngaidam te Kai aka huul ham Pathen nang ha om lah. Kai bomkung la BOEIPA nang ha tawn uh lah.

For the music director. A psalm of David. For a memorial. God, save me! Hurry, Lord, help me!

2 Ka hinglu aka mae rhoek te yahpok uh saeh lamtah a hmai tal uh saeh. Kai kah yoethae aka omtoem rhoek khaw a hnuk la balkhong uh saeh lamtah a hmaithae uh saeh.

Please defeat and humiliate the people who are trying to kill me; turn back in disgrace those who want to hurt me.

3 “Ahuei ah uei,” aka ti rhoek khaw yahpohnah la amamih kah thapang la bal saeh.

May they be shocked at their defeat, those who taunted me.

4 Nang aka tlap rhoek boeih tah namah dongah ngaingaih uh vetih a kohoe uh ni. Namah kah khangnah aka lungnah rhoek loh,” Pathen te pomsang yoeyah uh,” ti uh saeh.

But may everyone who comes to you be happy and glad; may those who love your salvation always say, “God is great!”

5 Tedae kai he mangdaeng neh khodaeng ni. Pathen aw kai aka bomkung ham kai taengla na tawn uh tih kai aka hlawt ham BOEIPA nang na uelh moenih.

As for me, I am poor and needy. Hurry, God, help me! Save me! Lord, don't wait!
