< Saam 3 >

1 Aw Bawipa, ka qaalkhqi doem soeih mah hy! Kai qaal na anik thawh sihkhqi doem soeih hy!
A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son. Jehovah, how many are they that trouble me, many they that rise up against me!
2 Khawsa ing am hul tang” tinawh thlang khawzah ing ni tina uhy.
Many say of my soul, There is no salvation for him in God. (Selah)
3 Bawipa, nang taw kai anik hlipkung phuhqa na awm hyk ti, kak khanawh boeimangnaak ce ni pe nawh ka luu ni zoek pe hyk ti.
But thou, Jehovah, art a shield about me; my glory, and the lifter up of my head.
4 Bawipa venawh khawteh na khy nyng saw, anih ing a hun ciim awhkawng nim hlat pehy.
With my voice will I call to Jehovah, and he will answer me from the hill of his holiness. (Selah)
5 Nung zaih nawh ip nyng; Bawipa ing a nimtu khak a dawngawh hang hqyng law tlaih bai nyng.
I laid me down and slept; I awaked, for Jehovah sustaineth me.
6 Qaal thonghqa ing hu hai na nik en khoep bai seiawm ap kqih qoe kawng nyng.
I will not fear for myriads of the people that have set themselves against me round about.
7 Aw Bawipa tho lah! ka Khawsa nang ing ni hul lah! Ka qaalkhqi a kapkhe quh ce vyk pek khqi nawhtaw, thlak chekhqi a haa ce khoeng pek khqi lah.
Arise, Jehovah; save me, my God! For thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheekbone, thou hast broken the teeth of the wicked.
8 Hulnaak taw Bawipa ven awhkawng law hy. Nak thlangkhqik khanawh na zosennaak awm seh nyng.
Salvation is of Jehovah; thy blessing is upon thy people. (Selah)
