1 Aka mawt ham David kah Tingtoenglung Yoethaenah hnin ah tattloel te aka cangbam tah a yoethen. Anih te BOEIPA loh a loeih sak.
For the leader; for Jeduthun. A psalm of David. Happy are those who consider the weak; in the day of misfortune the Lord will deliver them.
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.
He will keep them safe, happy, and long in the land, and not give them up to the rage of their foes.
3 BOEIPA loh kolet soengca dongkah te khaw a duel. A thingkong boeih te a tlohtat lamloh na palet bitni.
The Lord will sustain them on bed of languishing; tending their sickness, as long as they lie.
4 Kai loh, “BOEIPA, nang taengah ka tholh oeh tih, kai n'rhen lamtah ka hinglu he hoeih sak lah,” ka ti.
For this cause I say, “Lord, show me your favor; heal me, because I have sinned against 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 enemies speak of me nothing but evil, “When will he die, and his name pass away?”
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.
When one comes to see me, their words ring hollow; their heart keeps gathering mischief the while; and when they go out, they give it speech.
7 Ka lunguet boeih loh kai he a thae la m'moeh uh dongah kai taengah tun sisuk uh.
In secret they whisper together against me, all those who hate me plot evil against me.
8 “Anih tah a olka aka muen loh a kap thil tih a yalh atah thoh hamla koei mahpawh.
“Some fatal disease has fastened upon him; and now that he lies, he will 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.
My most trusted friend, on whom I relied, who ate of my bread, has turned against me.
10 Tedae BOEIPA nang loh kai n'rhen lamtah amih khoboe te thuung ham kai n'thoh lah.
But do you, Lord, graciously raise me up, that I may pay them their due reward.
11 Ka thunkha rhoek te kai soah a yuhui pawt dongah kai taengah na naem te ka ming.
By this will I know you delight in me: if my foes may not shout over me in triumph.
12 Kai khaw kamah kah thincaknah neh kai nan duel tih kumhal namah hmai ah kai nan khueh.
For my innocence you uphold me, and set me forever before your face.
13 Israel kah Pathen BOEIPA tah kumhal lamkah kumhal due a yoethen pai. Amen neh Amen.
Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting, Amen and Amen.
