An instruction. Of Ethan the Ezrahite. I will sing of the loving-kindness of Jehovah for ever; with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness from generation to generation.

Jehovah, God of hosts, who is like unto thee, the strong Jah? And thy faithfulness is round about thee.

Thou hast crushed Rahab as one that is slain; thou hast scattered thine enemies with the arm of thy strength.

With whom my hand shall be established; and mine arm shall strengthen him.
22 Anih te thunkha loh phae pawt vetih dumlai ca long khaw phaep mahpawh.
No enemy shall exact upon him, nor the son of wickedness afflict him;
23 Tedae a rhal te anih mikhmuh ah ka phop pah vetih a lunguet khaw ka vuek pah ni.
But I will beat down his adversaries before his face, and will smite them that hate him.
24 Te vaengah anih taengah kai kah uepomnah neh sitlohnah om vetih ka ming neh a ki khaw pomsang uh ni.
And my faithfulness and my loving-kindness shall be with him, and by my name shall his horn be exalted.
25 A kut te tuitunli soah, a bantang kut te tuiva rhoek soah ka khueh pah ni.
And I will set his hand in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.
26 Anih loh kai te, “Nang tah ka napa, ka Pathen neh kai ham khangnah lungpang,” la n'khue ni.
He shall call unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation;

And as to me, I will make him firstborn, the highest of the kings of the earth.
28 Kamah kah sitlohnah te anih ham kumhal duela ka ngaithuen rhoe ka ngaithuen pah vetih, ka paipi he anih taengah cak ni.
My loving-kindness will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him;
29 Te dongah a tiingan te a yoeyah la ka thoh pah vetih a ngolkhoel loh vaan khohnin bangla om ni.
And I will establish his seed for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.
30 A ca rhoek loh ka olkhueng he a hnoo uh tih ka tiktamnah dongah a pongpa uh pawt atah,
If his sons forsake my law, and walk not in mine ordinances;
31 ka khosing te a poeih uh tih ka olpaek te a ngaithuen uh pawt atah,
If they profane my statutes, and keep not my commandments:
32 amih kah boekoek te mancai neh, amih thaesainah te khaw tlohthae neh ka cawh thil van ni.
Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.
33 Tedae ka sitlohnah he anih taeng lamloh ka phae pah pawt vetih ka uepomnah te rhi ka lat pah mahpawh.
Nevertheless my loving-kindness will I not utterly take from him, nor belie my faithfulness;
34 Ka paipi he ka poeih pawt vetih ka hmui lamkah aka thoeng khaw ka thovael mahpawh.
My covenant will I not profane, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.
35 Ka cimcaihnah neh vai ka toemngam tangtae te David taengah khaw ka laithae mahpawh.
Once have I sworn by my holiness; I will not lie unto David:
36 Anih kah tiingan te kumhal duela om vetih a ngolkhoel loh kai hmaiah khomik bangla om ni.
His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me;
37 Hla bangla kumhal ah cikngae vetih khomong soah uepom laipai la om ni,” na ti. (Selah)
It shall be established for ever as the moon, and the witness in the sky is firm. (Selah)

But thou hast rejected and cast off; thou hast been very wroth with thine anointed:
39 Na salpa kah paipi te na hai tih a rhuisam khaw diklai neh na poeih pah.
Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant; thou hast profaned his crown to the ground:
40 Anih kah tanglung khaw boeih na phae pah tih a hmuencak rhoek khaw porhaknah la na khueh pah.
Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast brought his strongholds to ruin.
41 Longpuei kah aka pongpa boeih loh anih te a rheth uh dongah a imben rhoek kah kokhahnah coeng.
All that pass by the way plunder him; he is become a reproach to his neighbours.

Thou hast exalted the right hand of his oppressors; thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice:
43 A cunghang taeh khaw na kolong pah sak tih caemtloek vaengah khaw na duel pawh.
Yea, thou hast turned back the edge of his sword, and hast not made him stand in the battle.
44 A caihcilnah te na kangkuen sak tih a ngolkhoel te diklai la na voeih pah.
Thou hast made his brightness to cease, and cast his throne down to the ground;
45 A cacawn tue na rhaem pah tih, yah neh na thing. (Selah)
The days of his youth hast thou shortened; thou hast covered him with shame. (Selah)
46 BOEIPA nang mevaeng hil nim na thuh uh vetih, na kosi loh hmai bangla a yoeyah la rhong ve?
How long, Jehovah, wilt thou hide thyself for ever? shall thy fury burn like fire?
47 Hlang ca rhoek boeih na suen he a poeyoek mai la. Te dongah mebang khosaknah dongah khaw kai he m'poek lah.
Remember, as regards me, what life is. Wherefore hast thou created all the children of men to be vanity?

What man liveth, and shall not see death? Shall he deliver his soul from the power of Sheol? (Selah) (Sheol h7585)
49 Ka Boeipa aw, lamhma kah na sitlohnah te ta? David taengah na uepomnah neh na toemngam te.
Where, Lord, are thy former loving-kindnesses, [which] thou swarest unto David in thy faithfulness?
50 Ka Boeipa aw na sal sokah kokhahnah he poek lah. Pilnam kah tuituknah boeih he ka kodang ah ka phueih he.
Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants — that I bear in my bosom [that of] all the mighty peoples —
51 BOEIPA aw, na thunkha rhoek loh m'veet uh coeng te, na koelh hlang kah kholaeh khaw a veet uh coeng te.
Wherewith thine enemies, O Jehovah, have reproached, wherewith they have reproached the footsteps of thine anointed.
52 BOEIPA tah kumhal duela a yoethen pai. Amen phoeiah Amen.
Blessed be Jehovah for evermore! Amen, and Amen.
