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. David’s. To call to Remembrance. [Be pleased] O God, to rescue me, O Yahweh, to help me—make haste.

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 them turn pale and then at once blush, Who are seeking my life, —Let them draw back, and be confounded, Who are taking pleasure in my misfortune;

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

Let them turn back, on account of their own shame, Who are saying, 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 them be glad and rejoice in thee, Yea, let them, who are seekers of thee, —say continually, God be magnified! Who are lovers of thy salvation.

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, being humbled and needy, O God, haste to me, —My help and my deliverer, art thou, O Yahweh do not tarry.
