Tingtoeng 41

1 Aka mawt ham David kah Tingtoenglung Yoethaenah hnin ah tattloel te aka cangbam tah a yoethen. Anih te BOEIPA loh a loeih sak.

Blessed is he who considers a poor man. Jehovah will deliver him in the day of evil.

2 BOEIPA loh anih te a dawndah vetih a hlun ni. Khohmuen nen khaw uem la uem vetih, a thunkha kah hinglu la anih te tloeng mahpawh.

Jehovah will preserve him, and keep him alive, and he shall be blessed upon the earth. And thou do not deliver him to the will of his enemies.

3 BOEIPA loh kolet soengca dongkah te khaw a duel. A thingkong boeih te a tlohtat lamloh na palet bitni.

Jehovah will support him upon the bed of languishing. Thou will make all his bed in his sickness.

4 Kai loh, “BOEIPA, nang taengah ka tholh oeh tih, kai n'rhen lamtah ka hinglu he hoeih sak lah,” ka ti.

I said, O Jehovah, have mercy upon me. Heal my soul, for I have sinned against thee.

5 Ka thunkha rhoek loh kai he, “Me vaengah nim a duek vetih a ming a paltham ve,” tila a thae a thui.

My enemies speak evil against me, saying, When will he die, and his name perish?

6 Hmuh hamla aka pawk boeih tah a lungbuei khaw a poeyoek lam ni a cal. Amah ham boethae a coi tih, vongvoel la a pha neh a thui.

And if he comes to see me, he speaks falsehood. His heart gathers iniquity to itself. When he goes abroad, he tells it.

7 Ka lunguet boeih loh kai he a thae la m'moeh uh dongah kai taengah tun sisuk uh.

All who hate me whisper together against me. Against me they devise my hurt.

8 “Anih tah a olka aka muen loh a kap thil tih a yalh atah thoh hamla koei mahpawh.

An evil disease, they say, clings firm to him. And now that he lies he shall rise up no more.

9 Ka ngaimongnah hlang te tah amah dongah ka pangtung dae, ka buh aka ca long ni kai taengah a khodil a taloeh.

Yea, my own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, who ate of my bread, has lifted up his heel against me.

10 Tedae BOEIPA nang loh kai n'rhen lamtah amih khoboe te thuung ham kai n'thoh lah.

But thou, O Jehovah, have mercy upon me, and raise me up that I may requite them.

11 Ka thunkha rhoek te kai soah a yuhui pawt dongah kai taengah na naem te ka ming.

By this I know that thou delight in me, because my enemy does not triumph over me.

12 Kai khaw kamah kah thincaknah neh kai nan duel tih kumhal namah hmai ah kai nan khueh.

And as for me, thou uphold me in my integrity, and set me before thy face forever.

13 Israel kah Pathen BOEIPA tah kumhal lamkah kumhal due a yoethen pai. Amen neh Amen.

Blessed be Jehovah, the God of Israel, from everlasting and to everlasting. Truly, and Truly.
