Tingtoeng 70

1 Aka mawt ham David kah a ngaidam te Kai aka huul ham Pathen nang ha om lah. Kai bomkung la BOEIPA nang ha tawn uh lah.

“To the chief musician, by David, to bring to remembrance.” O God, [arise] to deliver me; O Lord, make haste to help me.

2 Ka hinglu aka mae rhoek te yahpok uh saeh lamtah a hmai tal uh saeh. Kai kah yoethae aka omtoem rhoek khaw a hnuk la balkhong uh saeh lamtah a hmaithae uh saeh.

Let those that seek after my life be made ashamed and put to the blush: let those that desire my unhappiness be turned backward and put to confusion.

3 “Ahuei ah uei,” aka ti rhoek khaw yahpohnah la amamih kah thapang la bal saeh.

Let them be turned backward in consequence of their shame, that say, Aha, aha.

4 Nang aka tlap rhoek boeih tah namah dongah ngaingaih uh vetih a kohoe uh ni. Namah kah khangnah aka lungnah rhoek loh,” Pathen te pomsang yoeyah uh,” ti uh saeh.

Let all those that seek thee be glad and rejoice in thee: and let such as love thy salvation say continually, God is great.

5 Tedae kai he mangdaeng neh khodaeng ni. Pathen aw kai aka bomkung ham kai taengla na tawn uh tih kai aka hlawt ham BOEIPA nang na uelh moenih.

But I am poor and needy, O God: come hastily unto me; my help and my deliverer art thou: O Lord, do not delay.
