Tingtoeng 61

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

For the Leader; with string-music. A Psalm of David. Hear my cry, O God; attend unto 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.

From the end of the earth will I call unto Thee, when my heart fainteth; lead me to a rock that is too high for me.

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

For Thou hast been a refuge for me, a tower of strength in 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 Thy Tent for ever; I will take refuge in the covert of Thy wings. (Selah)

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

For Thou, O God, hast heard my vows; Thou hast granted the heritage of those that fear Thy name.

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

Mayest Thou add days unto the king's days! May his years be as many generations!

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

May he be enthroned before God for ever! Appoint mercy and truth, that they may preserve him.

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

So will I sing praise unto Thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.
