Saam 16
1 Aw Khawsa, ni loet sak lah, namah a venawh ni kang thuk law.
Michtam of David. Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust.
2 Bawipa venawh, Nang taw ka Bawipa na awm hyk ti; nang kaa taw leeknaak tehca awm am ta nyng,” ka ti.
O my soul, thou hast said to the LORD, Thou art my Lord: my goodness extendeth not to thee;
3 Qam khuiawh ak awm thlang ciimkhqi ce, Boeimangnaak ing ak be kai a zeelnaak kungkhqi na awm uhy.
But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.
4 Ak chang khawsakhqi venna ak cenkhqi ak kawseetnaak taw pung khqoet kaw. A mingmih a thi ce khawsakhqi hamna am hawk pe kawng nyng saw, a mingmih ang ming awm ka hui awh ap kqawn qoe kawng nyng.
Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another god: their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take their names into my lips.
5 Bawipa, ka huh hly kawi ingkaw ka boet ce ni taak pe hyt hawh tiksaw; ka huh hly kawi ce ni taak pe khak hawh hyk ti.
The LORD is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.
6 Khawqi ing a leeknaak soeih awh kai aham khan qu nawh; ka qo pang hly kawi awh ce zeel soeih nyng.
The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.
7 Khaw anik poek peekkung Bawipa ce kyihcah vang; khawmthan awh awm kak kawlung ing ni cawngpyi hy.
I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel: my reins also instruct me in the night season.
8 Bawipa ce ka haiawh awm sak poepa nyng. Anih ce kak tang ben awh a awm dawngawh, am thyn qoe ti kawng.
I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
9 Cedawngawh kak kawlung zeel nawh kam lai ak kaw zeel hy; ka pum awm a sa loet kaw.
Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope.
10 Ikawtih, nang ing phyi awh am ni cehta hyt kawm tiksaw, nak Thlang Ciim ce am thu sak kawp ti. (Sheol h7585)
For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou permit thy Holy One to see corruption. (Sheol h7585)
11 Hqingnaak lam ce nani sim sak hawh a dawngawh; na haiawh zeelnaak, nak tang ben awhkaw kumqui zeelnaak ing ni be sak kawp ti.
Thou wilt show me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand are pleasures for evermore.
