Tingtoeng 21

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

For the Leader. A Psalm of David. O LORD, in Thy strength the king rejoiceth; and in Thy salvation how greatly doth he exult!

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 the request of his lips Thou hast not withholden. (Selah)

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

For Thou meetest him with choicest blessings; Thou settest a crown of fine gold on his head.

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

He asked life of Thee, Thou gavest it him; even 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 through Thy salvation; honour and majesty dost Thou lay upon him.

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

For Thou makest him most blessed for ever; Thou makest him glad with joy in Thy presence.

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

For the king trusteth in the LORD, yea, in 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.

Thy hand shall be equal to all thine enemies; thy right hand shall overtake those 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 a fiery furnace in the time of thine anger; the LORD shall swallow them up in His wrath, and the 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 intended evil against thee, they imagined a device, wherewith they shall not prevail.

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, thou shalt make ready with thy bowstrings against the face of them.

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 strength; so will we sing and praise Thy power.
