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.
To the chief music-maker. A Psalm. Of David. Happy is the man who gives thought to the poor; the Lord will be his saviour in the time of trouble.
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.
The Lord will keep him safe, and give him life; the Lord will let him be a blessing on the earth, and will not give him into the hand of his haters.
3 BOEIPA loh kolet soengca dongkah te khaw a duel. A thingkong boeih te a tlohtat lamloh na palet bitni.
The Lord will be his support on his bed of pain: by you will all his grief be turned to strength.
4 Kai loh, “BOEIPA, nang taengah ka tholh oeh tih, kai n'rhen lamtah ka hinglu he hoeih sak lah,” ka ti.
I said, Lord, have mercy on me; make my soul well, because my faith is in you.
5 Ka thunkha rhoek loh kai he, “Me vaengah nim a duek vetih a ming a paltham ve,” tila a thae a thui.
My haters say evil against me, When will he be dead, and his name come to an end?
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.
If one comes to see me, deceit is in his heart; he keeps a store of evil, which he makes public in every place.
7 Ka lunguet boeih loh kai he a thae la m'moeh uh dongah kai taengah tun sisuk uh.
All my haters are talking secretly together against me; they are designing my downfall.
8 “Anih tah a olka aka muen loh a kap thil tih a yalh atah thoh hamla koei mahpawh.
They say, He has an evil disease, which will not let him go: and now that he is down he will not get up again.
9 Ka ngaimongnah hlang te tah amah dongah ka pangtung dae, ka buh aka ca long ni kai taengah a khodil a taloeh.
Even my dearest friend, in whom I had faith, who took bread with me, is turned against me.
10 Tedae BOEIPA nang loh kai n'rhen lamtah amih khoboe te thuung ham kai n'thoh lah.
But you, O Lord, have mercy on me, lifting me up, so that I may give them their punishment.
11 Ka thunkha rhoek te kai soah a yuhui pawt dongah kai taengah na naem te ka ming.
By this I see that you have pleasure in me, because my hater does not overcome me.
12 Kai khaw kamah kah thincaknah neh kai nan duel tih kumhal namah hmai ah kai nan khueh.
And as for me, you are my support in my righteousness, giving me a place before your face for ever.
13 Israel kah Pathen BOEIPA tah kumhal lamkah kumhal due a yoethen pai. Amen neh Amen.
May the Lord God of Israel be praised, through eternal days and for ever. So be it. So be it.
