1 Judah khosoek ah a om vaengkah David tingtoenglung Pathen namah tah ka Pathen ni. Namah ni kan toem coeng. Namah te ka hinglu loh halthi tih, ka pumsa loh namah te a hue, Diklai ah he rhamrhae neh buhmueh rhathih, tui mueh la om.
A psalm of David, when he was in the Judean desert. God, you are my God, I eagerly look for you. I am thirsty for you; all that I am longs for you in this dry, weary, waterless land.
2 Tedae na sarhi neh na thangpomnah hmuh ham hmuencim ah nang kan dan.
I see you in the Temple; I watch your power and glory.
3 Na sitlohnah he hingnah lakah then tih ka hmuilai he nang taengah domyok ti uh saeh.
Your trustworthy love is better than life itself; I will praise you.
4 Te dongah ka hingnah neh nang kan uem vetih, na ming neh ka kut ka thueng ni.
I will thank you as long as I live; I lift up my hands as I celebrate your wonderful character.
5 A th a neh maehhloi bangla ka hinglu hah vetih ka ka loh omngaih laa kah hmuilai neh a thangthen ni.
You satisfy me more than the richest food; I will praise you with joyful songs.
6 Ka rhaenghmuen lamkah loh nang kan poek vaengah nang te hlaempang pakhat puet kan mangtuk.
I think of you all night long as I lie on my bed meditating about you.
7 Kai ham bomnah la na om dongah na phae hlip ah ka tamhoe.
For you are the one who helps me; I sing happily from under your wings.
8 Nang dongah ka hinglu pangnal tih kai he na bantang kut loh n'duel.
I hold on to you; your strong arms lift me up.
9 Amih loh ka hinglu pocinah ham a mae uh dae diklai hmui la kun uh bitni.
Those who are trying to destroy me will go down into the grave.
10 cunghang kut ah pat uh vetih maetang buham la om uh ni.
They will be killed by the sword; they will become food for jackals.
11 Tedae, manghai tah Pathen rhang neh a kohoe ni. Amah dongah ol aka caeng boeih te a thangthen vaengah laithae aka thui kah a ka te a biing pah ni.
But the king will be happy for what God has done. All who follow God will praise him, but those who tell lies will be silenced.
