< Tingtoeng 3 >
1 A capa Absalom hmai lamkah a yong vaengah David kah tingtoeng Aw BOEIPA, badongah kai taengah aka tlai, ka rhal he muep a pung,
“A psalm of David, when he fled from before Abshalom his son.” Lord, how numerous are my assailants! how many, that rise up against me!
2 “Pathenlamkah khangnah tah anih ham moenih,” tila ka hinglu he muep a thui uh. (Selah)
Many say of my soul, There is no help for him with God. (Selah)
3 Tedae, BOEIPA nang tah kai taengah photling, ka thangpomnah neh ka lu aka pomsang la na om.
But thou, O Lord, art a shield around me, my glory, and he that lifteth up my head.
4 BOEIPAte ka ol neh ka khue vaengah, a tlang cim lamloh kai n'doo, (Selah)
With my voice I call unto the Lord, and he answereth me out of his holy mountain. (Selah)
5 Kai he BOEIPA loh n'duel dongah, ka yalh tih ka ip dae koep ka haenghang,
I laid myself down and slept: I awoke; for the Lord sustaineth me.
6 Kapilnam a thawng a sang aka pai khoep te ka rhih mahpawh,
I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have placed themselves round about against me.
7 Aw ka BOEIPA Pathen thoo laeh! namah loh ka thunkha te boeih na ngawn tih, halang rhoek kah kamken no khaw na thuk dongah kai he n'khanglaeh
Arise, O Lord, help me, O my God; for thou smitest all my enemies upon the cheek bone: the teeth of the wicked dost thou break.
8 Khangnahhe BOEIPA taengkah ni. Nang kah yoethennah loh na pilnam soah om saeh. (Selah)
Salvation belongeth unto the Lord: thy blessing be upon thy people. (Selah)
