1 Aka mawt ham Gath ah Philisti loh amah a khoh vaengkah David kah lakhla olmueh vahui laa Kho hnin takuem kai aka nen la aka nen, hlanghing loh kai n'hloem dongah, Pathen aw kai n'rhen dae.
To him that excelleth. A Psalme of David on Michtam, concerning the dumme doue in a farre countrey, when the Philistims tooke him in Gath. Be mercifull vnto me, O God, for man would swallow me vp: he fighteth continually and vexeth me.
2 Ka lungawn rhoek loh khohnin takuem n'hloem uh tih, kai he koevoeinah neh aka nen khaw yet.
Mine enemies would dayly swallowe mee vp: for many fight against me, O thou most High.
3 Kai loh ka rhih khohnin ah, namah dongla ka pangtung.
When I was afrayd, I trusted in thee.
4 Pathen rhang neh amah kah olka te ka thangthen. Pathen dongah ka pangtung tih ka rhih mahpawh. Pumsa loh kai taengah balae a saii thai.
I will reioyce in God, because of his word, I trust in God, and will not feare what flesh can doe vnto me.
5 Khohnin yung ah kai ol a yakdam uh tih a kopoek boeih khaw kai taengah thae uh.
Mine owne wordes grieue me dayly: all their thoughtes are against me to doe me hurt.
6 Amih loh ka kholaeh te, a dawn a dawn uh tih m'mae uh. Ka hinglu he a lamtawn uh dongah n'tawt uh.
They gather together, and keepe them selues close: they marke my steps, because they waite for my soule.
7 Amih kah boethae ah na thintoek loh pilnam rhoek a hlak te hlawt la om saeh saw Pathen aw.
They thinke they shall escape by iniquitie: O God, cast these people downe in thine anger.
8 Ka poengdoenah he namah loh tae lamtah, ka mikphi he na tuitang khuiah than lah. Na cabu dongah om pawt nim?
Thou hast counted my wandrings: put my teares into thy bottel: are they not in thy register?
9 Te dongah amah te ka khue khohnin kah, ka thunkha rhoek a bal uh nen te, kai ham Pathen om tila ka ming ni.
When I cry, then mine enemies shall turne backe: this I know, for God is with me.
10 Pathen rhang neh olka te ka thangthen. BOEIPA rhang neh olka te ka thangthen.
I will reioyce in God because of his worde: in the Lord wil I reioyce because of his worde.
11 Pathen dongah ka pangtung dongah ka rhih mahpawh. Hlang loh kai taengah balae a saii thai?
In God doe I trust: I will not be afrayd what man can doe vnto me.
12 Aw Pathen, kai sokah na olcaeng ham, nang taengah uemonah neh kan thuung ni.
Thy vowes are vpon me, O God: I will render prayses vnto thee.
13 Dueknah lamkah ka hinglu nan huul phoeiah, Pathen mikhmuh kah hingnah khosae ah caeh ham ka kho he thuihkoek lamkah han hlawt moenih a?
For thou hast deliuered my soule from death, and also my feete from falling, that I may walke before God in the light of the liuing.
