Tingtoeng 21

1 Aka mawt ham David kah tingtoenglung BOEIPA nang kah sarhi dongah manghai a kohoe tih, namah kah khangnah dongah bahoeng omngaih.

Unto the end. A psalm for David. In thy strength, O Lord, the king shall joy; and in thy salvation he shall rejoice exceedingly.

2 Anih ham a lungbuei kah a ngaihlihnah khaw na doo tih, a hmuilai kah a kueknah te na hloh pah pawh. (Selah)

Thou hast given him his heart’s desire: and hast not withholden from him the will of his lips.

3 Anih te yoethennah then neh na doe tih a lu ah suicilh rhuisam na khueh pah.

For thou hast prevented him with blessings of sweetness: thou hast set on his head a crown of precious stones.

4 Namah taengkah hingnah ham bih vaengah anih ham kumhal ah khohnin na puh sak tih na paek yoeyah.

He asked life of thee: and thou hast given him length of days for ever and ever.

5 Nang kah khangnah lamloh a thangpomnah tanglue tih, mueithennah neh rhuepomnah te anih dongah na hal coeng.

His glory is great in thy salvation: glory and great beauty shalt thou lay upon him.

6 Anih te yoethennah na paek yoeyah dongah namah hmai kah kohoenah neh a ko na hoe sak.

For thou shalt give him to be a blessing for ever and ever: thou shalt make him joyful in gladness with thy countenance.

7 Te dongah manghai loh BOEIPA dongah pangtung tih, Khohni kah sitlohnah rhang neh tuen voel mahpawh.

For the king hopeth in the Lord: and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.

8 Na thunkha boeih te na kut loh a hmuh vetih, na lunguet rhoek khaw na bantang kut loh a tuuk bitni.

Let thy hand be found by all thy enemies: let thy right hand find out all them that hate thee.

9 Namah na phoe tue vaengah amih te hmaipom hmai bangla na khueh bitni. BOEIPA kah a thintoek loh amih te a dolh vetih hmai loh a hlawp ni.

Thou shalt make them as an oven of fire, in the time of thy anger: the Lord shall trouble them in his wrath, and fire shall devour them.

10 Amih kah a thaihtae te diklai lamkah, amih kah tiingan khaw hlang capa rhoek khui lamkah na milh sak ni.

Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth: and their seed from among the children of men.

11 Nang taengah tangkhuepnah a thae la moeh uh tih n'taeng uh dae a phu uh hae moenih.

For they have intended evils against thee: they have devised counsels which they have not been able to establish.

12 Tedae na liva neh amih maelhmai te na nuen vaengah amih te a hnuk la na rhoe bitni.

For thou shalt make them turn their back: in thy remnants thou shalt prepare their face.

13 BOEIPA te pomsang pai saeh. Na sarhi te ka hlai uh vetih na thayung thamal te ka tingtoeng uh ni.

Be thou exalted, O Lord, in thy own strength: we will sing and praise thy power.
