Tingtoeng 16
1 David kah Laa Aw Boeipa Pathen namah dongah ka ying tih kai n'dawndah lah.
A writing of David. Keep me, O Lord; for I have hoped in you.
2 Ka Boeipa Yahovah namah taengah, “Nang phoeiah tah ka hnothen a om moenih,” ka ti.
I said to the Lord, You are my Lord; for you has no need of my goodness.
3 Diklai ah aka cim tih, aka khuet boeih taengah ka naep.
On behalf of the saints that are in his land, he has magnified all his pleasure in them.
4 A tloe aka oei rhoek tah a nganboh la pung. Amih thii te tuisi ka bueih pawt vetih ka hmuilai neh amih ming te ka khuen mahpawh.
Their weaknesses have been multiplied; afterward they hasted. I will by no means assemble their bloody meetings, neither will I make mention of their names with my lips.
5 BOEIPA tah kai kah buham khoyo neh ka boengloeng la om. Namah loh ka hmulung khaw na duel.
The Lord is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: you are he that restores my inheritance to me.
6 Rhilong khaw kai ham tah, hmuennaep ah cet tih, kai ham rho then ngawn coeng.
The lines have fallen to me in the best places, yes, I have a most excellent heritage.
7 Kai aka uen aka to BOEIPA te a yoethen saeh. Khoyin ah khaw ka kuel loh kamah n'toel.
I will bless the Lord who has instructed me; my reins too have chastened me even till night.
8 BOEIPA loh kai kah bantang ben ah om tih, kamah hmai la ka mop taitu dongah ka tuen mahpawh.
I foresaw the Lord always before my face; for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved.
9 Te dongah ka lungbuei a kohoe tih ka kah thangpomnah loh a omngaih vaengah, ka pumsa khaw ngaikhuek la duem ni.
Therefore my heart rejoiced an my tongue exulted; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope:
10 Ka hinglu he Saelkhui la na hnoo pawt vetih, namah kah hlangcim te hlan na hmuh sak mahpawh. (Sheol h7585)
because you will not leave my soul in hell, neither will you suffer your Holy One to see corruption. (Sheol h7585)
11 Hingnah caehlong te kai nan tueng tih, na hmai ah kohoenah kodam la om. Na bantang kut ah a yoeyah la ka ngailaem.
You have made known to me the ways of life; you will fill me with joy with your countenance: at your right hand [there are] delights for ever.
