Tingtoeng 69
1 David kah Tuilipai te aka mawt ham Tui loh ka hinglu te ham pha dongah Pathen aw kai n'khang lah.
For the choirmaster. To the tune of “Lilies.” Of David. Save me, O God, for the waters are up to my neck.
2 Sihnok laedil la ka buek tih tungtainah om kolla tui dung la ka pha voek dongah tuili loh kai n'yo coeng.
I have sunk into the miry depths, where there is no footing; I have drifted into deep waters, where the flood engulfs me.
3 Ka pang te khaw ka kohnue coeng. Ka olrhong khaw koh coeng. Ka Pathen te ka lamtawn ah ka mik kha coeng.
I am weary from my crying; my throat is parched. My eyes fail, looking for my God.
4 Lunglilungl a la ka lunguet rhoek tah ka lu dongkah sam lakah yet. A honghi mai neh kai aka biit ka thunkha rhoek loh yet uh. Ka huen pawt te ka sah.
Those who hate me without cause outnumber the hairs of my head; many are those who would destroy me— my enemies for no reason. Though I did not steal, I must repay.
5 Ka anglat te Pathen namah loh na ming tih ka dumlai he nang taeng lamloh a thuh uh moenih.
You know my folly, O God, and my guilt is not hidden from You.
6 Ka Boeipa caempuei Yahovah, nang aka lamtawn rhoek te kai kong ah yahpok uh boel saeh. Israel Pathen nang aka tlap rhoek te kai kong ah a hmaithae uh boel saeh.
May those who hope in You not be ashamed through me, O Lord GOD of Hosts; may those who seek You not be dishonored through me, O God of Israel.
7 Nang ham te kokhahnah ka phueih tih ka maelhmai he mingthae loh a dah.
For I have endured scorn for Your sake, and shame has covered my face.
8 Ka pacaboeina rhoek taengah ka hlanglak tih ka manu ca rhoek taengah ka kholong.
I have become a stranger to my brothers and a foreigner to my mother’s sons,
9 Na im thatlainah dongah kai n'yoop tih nang aka veet rhoek kah kokhahnah khaw kai soah tla.
because zeal for Your house has consumed me, and the insults of those who insult You have fallen on me.
10 Te dongah ka hinglu kah yaehnah neh ka rhap dae kai taengah kokhahnah la pawk.
I wept and fasted, but it brought me reproach.
11 Ka tlamhni pueinak ka bai vaengah amih ham thuidoeknah la ka om.
I made sackcloth my clothing, and I was sport to them.
12 Vong ka kah aka ngol rhoek loh kai taengah lolmang a taeng uh tih yu o rhoek kah rhotoeng la ka om khoeng.
Those who sit at the gate mock me, and I am the song of drunkards.
13 Tedae Pathen kah kolonah tue vaengah, kai loh BOEIPA nang taengah ka thangthuinah te, na sitlohnah cangpai dongah namah kah khangnah oltak neh kai nan doo.
But my prayer to You, O LORD, is for a time of favor. In Your abundant loving devotion, O God, answer me with Your sure salvation.
14 Tangnong khui lamkah kai n'huul lamtah m'buek sak boeh. Ka lunguet neh tui dung lamkah n'huul lah.
Rescue me from the mire and do not let me sink; deliver me from my foes and out of the deep waters.
15 Tuili tui loh kai n'yo boel saeh lamtah a laedil la kai n'yoop boel saeh. Tangrhom loh kai a ka n'khuep thil boel saeh.
Do not let the floods engulf me or the depths swallow me up; let not the Pit close its mouth over me.
16 Na sitlohnah a then dongah kai n'doo lah BOEIPA. Na haidamnah cungkuem neh kai taengla ha mael lah.
Answer me, O LORD, for Your loving devotion is good; turn to me in keeping with Your great compassion.
17 Te dongah na maelhmai te na sal taeng lamkah thuh boel mai. Ka taengah n'daengdaeh dongah a loe la kai n'doo dae.
Hide not Your face from Your servant, for I am in distress. Answer me quickly!
18 Ka hinglu taengla ha yoei lamtah n'tlan dae. Ka thunkha rhoek kongah kai n'lat dae.
Draw near to my soul and redeem me; ransom me because of my foes.
19 Namah loh kai kah kokhahnah, yahpohnah, ka mingthae neh na hmaikah kai aka daengdaeh boeih khaw na ming.
You know my reproach, my shame and disgrace. All my adversaries are before You.
20 Kokhahnah dongah ka lungbuei rhek tih ka mangoeng sut. Te dongah aka suem ham ka lamtawn dae om pawt tih, aka hloep ham khaw ka hmu pawh.
Insults have broken my heart, and I am in despair. I looked for sympathy, but there was none, for comforters, but I found no one.
21 Ka buh dongah anrhat han hlum uh tih ka tuihalh vaengkah ham a thuui n'tul uh.
They poisoned my food with gall and gave me vinegar to quench my thirst.
22 Amih kah caboei te amih mikhmuh ah pael la, rhoepnah te hlaeh la om pah saeh.
May their table become a snare; may it be a retribution and a trap.
23 Amih kah mik te a tueng khui lamkah hmuep saeh lamtah a cinghen khaw khun yoeyah saeh.
May their eyes be darkened so they cannot see, and their backs be bent forever.
24 Amih te na kosi lun thil lamtah na thintoek thinsa loh amih te doom saeh.
Pour out Your wrath upon them, and let Your burning anger overtake them.
25 Amih kah lumim te kho pong la om saeh lamtah a dap ah khosa hlang om boel saeh.
May their place be deserted; let there be no one to dwell in their tents.
26 Na ngawn te a hloem uh tih na rhok kah nganboh te a tae uh.
For they persecute the one You struck and recount the pain of those You wounded.
27 Thaesainah te amamih kathaesainah neh a koei dongah nang kah duengnah te bawn uh boel saeh.
Add iniquity to their iniquity; let them not share in Your righteousness.
28 Hingnah cabu khui lamkah phae lamtah hlang dueng rhoek neh hmaih daek boeh.
May they be blotted out of the Book of Life and not listed with the righteous.
29 Tedae kai mangdaeng thakkhoeih he, Pathen namah kah khangnah neh n'hoeptlang lah.
But I am in pain and distress; let Your salvation protect me, O God.
30 Lumla a neh Pathen ming te ka thangthen vetih amah te uemonah neh ka pomsang puei ni.
I will praise God’s name in song and exalt Him with thanksgiving.
31 Te daengah ni BOEIPA ham vaito vaitotal ki cawn neh khomae aka rhak lakah a uemo eh.
And this will please the LORD more than an ox, more than a bull with horns and hooves.
32 Kodo rhoek loh a hmuh vetih a kohoe uh ni. Pathen aka tlap rhoek, nangmih thinko ah hing van saeh.
The humble will see and rejoice. You who seek God, let your hearts be revived!
33 BOEIPA loh khodaeng rhoek te a yaak tih a thongtla rhoek khaw a hnoel moenih.
For the LORD listens to the needy and does not despise His captive people.
34 Vaan rhoek neh diklai loh, tuitunli rhoek neh a khuiah aka yuel boeih loh BOEIPA amah te thangthen uh saeh.
Let heaven and earth praise Him, the seas and everything that moves in them.
35 Pathen loh Zion a khang ni. Judah khopuei rhoek te a sak vaengah kho a sak vetih pahoi a pang uh ni.
For God will save Zion and rebuild the cities of Judah, that they may dwell there and possess it.
36 A sal rhoek kah a tiingan long khaw a pang uh vetih a ming aka lungnah rhoek loh a khuiah kho a sakuh.
The descendants of His servants will inherit it, and those who love His name will settle in it.
