Tingtoeng 75

1 [Aka mawt ham Asaph kah tingtoenglung “Phae boeh” Laa] Pathen namah te kan uem uh. Na ming neh aka yoei loh, namah kah khobaerhambae, a thui uh dongah kan uem uh.

For the Chief Musician. To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” A Psalm by Asaph. A song. We give thanks to you, God. We give thanks, for your Name is near. Men tell about your wondrous works.

2 Khoning ka khuen te khaw, kamah loh vanatnah neh lai ka tloek.

When I choose the appointed time, I will judge blamelessly.

3 Diklai neh a khuikah khosa boeih a paci vaengah, tung ka moem. (Selah)

The earth and all its inhabitants quake. I firmly hold its pillars. (Selah)

4 Aka yan rhoek khaw yan uh boeh, halang rhoek te na ki pomsang boeh.

I said to the arrogant, “Don’t boast!” I said to the wicked, “Don’t lift up the horn.

5 “Na ki a sang la na pomsang tih na rhawn neh mangkhak la cal boeh,” ka ti nah.

Don’t lift up your horn on high. Don’t speak with a stiff neck.”

6 Pomsang ham te khothoeng lamkah khaw, khotlak lamkah khaw, om pawt tih, khosoek lamkah moenih.

For neither from the east, nor from the west, nor yet from the south, comes exaltation.

7 Tedae lai aka tloek Pathen loh, pakhat te a kunyun sak tih, pakhat te a pomsang.

But God is the judge. He puts down one, and lifts up another.

8 BOEIPA kut ah boengloeng om tih, misurtui te homtui neh a bae la hom. Tekah te a hawk vaengah, diklai halang boeih loh a ok uh tih, a sampa khaw a caep uh.

For in Yahweh’s hand there is a cup, full of foaming wine mixed with spices. He pours it out. Indeed the wicked of the earth drink and drink it to its very dregs.

9 Te dongah kai loh kumhal ah ka doek vetih, Jakob Pathen te ka tingtoeng ni.

But I will declare this forever: I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

10 Te vaengah halang rhoek kah a ki boeih te ka rhet pah vetih, aka dueng rhoek kah a ki te a pomsang uh ni.

I will cut off all the horns of the wicked, but the horns of the righteous shall be lifted up.
