1 Aka mawt ham Asaph kah Gittith Mamih kah sarhi Pathen taengah tamhoe uh lamtah Jakob Pathen taengah yuhui uh lah.
For the Leader; upon the Gittith. A Psalm of Asaph. Sing aloud unto God our strength; shout unto the God of Jacob.
2 Oldi te phoh uh lamtah kamrhing rhotoeng neh dingsuek thangpa tum uh.
Take up the melody, and sound the timbrel, the sweet harp with the psaltery.
3 Hlasae, hlalum vaengkah mamih khotue hnin ah tuki te ueng uh lah.
Blow the horn at the new moon, at the full moon for our feast-day.
4 Hekah he Israel ham Jakob Pathen kah laitloeknah oltlueh coeng ni.
For it is a statute for Israel, an ordinance of the God of Jacob.
5 Ka yakming mueh ol, Egypt kho la a caeh vaengah Joseph ham a khueh olphong ni.
He appointed it in Joseph for a testimony, when He went forth against the land of Egypt. The speech of one that I knew not did I hear:
6 A laengpang dongkah hnorhih te ka khoe pah tih a kut khaw voh khui lamkah loeih.
'I removed his shoulder from the burden; His hands were freed from the basket.
7 Citcai khuiah nan khue tih nang kan pumcum sak. Khohum hlip lamkah nang kan doo tih Meribah tui ah nang kan loep kan dak. (Selah)
Thou didst call in trouble, and I rescued thee; I answered thee in the secret place of thunder; I proved thee at the waters of Meribah. (Selah)
8 Ka pilnam loh hnatun lamtah kai ol te na hnatun atah Israel nang taengah ka laipai ni.
Hear, O My people, and I will admonish thee: O Israel, if thou wouldest hearken unto Me!
9 Na khuiah rhalawt pathen om boel saeh lamtah kholong pathen te bawk boeh.
There shall no strange god be in thee; neither shalt thou worship any foreign god.
10 Kai tah Egypt kho lamkah nang aka doek na Pathen Yahweh ni. Na ka ang lamtah kan hah sak eh.
I am the LORD thy God, who brought thee up out of the land of Egypt; open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.
11 Tedae ka pilnam loh ka ol he ya pawt tih Israel loh kai taengah naep pawh.
But My people hearkened not to My voice; and Israel would none of Me.
12 Te dongah amih te lungbuei thinthahnah taengla ka hlah tih amih kah cilkhih dongah pongpa uh.
So I let them go after the stubbornness of their heart, that they might walk in their own counsels.
13 Ka pilnam loh kai taengah hnatang koinih ka longpuei te Israel loh a vai sui dae.
Oh that My people would hearken unto Me, that Israel would walk in My ways!
14 A thunkha rhoek te a loe la ka kunyun sak vetih a rhal te ka kut neh ka thuung pah suidae.
I would soon subdue their enemies, and turn My hand against their adversaries.
15 BOEIPA kah a lunguet rhoek loh anih taengah mai a tum uh vetih amih kah khohnin khaw kumhal duela puh suidae.
The haters of the LORD should dwindle away before Him; and their punishment should endure for ever.
16 Tedae cang tha te anih a cah suitih lungpang khui lamkah khoitui nang kang kum sak sue.
They should also be fed with the fat of wheat; and with honey out of the rock would I satisfy thee.'
