Tingtoeng 61

1 Rhotoeng neh aka mawt ham David kah Pathen aw ka tamlung he ya lamtah ka thangthuinah he hnatung lah.

Unto the end. With hymns, of David. O God, pay attention to my supplication. Be attentive to my prayer.

2 Nang te Diklai a bawt lamkah kan khue. Ka lungbuei a rhae vaengah kamah lakah aka sang lungpang taengla kai nan mawt.

I cried out to you from the ends of the earth. When my heart was in anguish, you exalted me on a rock. You have led me,

3 Kai ham tah hlipyingnah neh thunkha hmai ah sarhi rhaltoengim la na om.

for you have been my hope, a tower of strength before the face of the enemy.

4 Na dap khuiah kumhal ka bakuep vetih na phae hlip ah ka ying ni. (Selah)

I will dwell in your tabernacle forever. I will be protected under the cover of your wings.

5 Pathen namah loh ka olcaeng te na yaak dongah na ming aka rhih tah rho na paek.

For you, my God, have listened to my prayer. You have granted an inheritance to those who fear your name.

6 Manghai kah a tue khohnin te puh sak lamtah a kum khaw cadilcahma duela nguel sak.

You will add days to the days of the king, to his years, even to the time of generation after generation.

7 Sitlohnah Pathen hmai ah kumhal khosa saeh lamtah a khueh oltak loh anih te kueinah saeh.

He remains in eternity, in the sight of God. Who will long for his mercy and truth?

8 Khohnin, khohnin ah ka olcaeng te thuung ham na ming ka tingtoeng yoeyah.

So I will compose a psalm to your name, forever and ever, so that I may repay my vows from day to day.
