Saam 9
1 Aw Bawipa, kak kawlung boeih ing nang nim kyih vang; kawpoek kyi ik-oeih na sai boeih ce khypyi vang nyng.
To the Chief Musician. On "Muthlabben." A Melody of David. I will praise Yahweh with all my heart, I will recount all thy wonderful doings:
2 Namah awh ce kaw zeel nawh, awm kawng. Aw, sawsang soeih, nang ming kyihcahnaak laa sa vang.
I will rejoice and exult in thee, I will praise in song, thy Name, O most High.
3 Ka qaalkhqi taw na haiawh bah unawh; seet doena ami huna hlat tlaih uhy.
When mine enemies turned back, they stumbled and perished from before thee;
4 Kak cangnaak awhtaw nang ing ning dyih pyi nawh; na ngawihdoelh awh ngawi nawh, ak dyng cana awi deng hyk ti.
For thou hast executed my right and my cause, Thou hast sat on the throne, judging righteously:
5 Pilnam thlangkhqi ce toel nawh, thlak chekhqi ce milh sak khqi hyk ti; cekkhqi ang ming ce kumqui dyna khawng pe hyk ti.
Thou hast rebuked the nations, Thou hast destroyed the lawless one, Their name, hast thou wiped out, to times age-abiding and beyond.
6 Amak dyt thai seetnaak ing qaalkhqi ce zawl nawh, cekkhqi a khawk bau ce hqe pe pheng hawh hyk ti; ami sim loetnaak awm hqe pek khqi boeih hawh hyk ti.
O enemy! complete are the desolations, evermore, —even cities, hast thou uprooted, The memory of, them, hath perished.
7 Bawipa taw kumqui dyna boei na awm hy; awidengnaak aham a boei ngawihdoelh ce caksak hawh hy.
But, Yahweh, unto times age-abiding, will sit, Ready for judgment, is his throne;
8 Khawmdek ve ak dyng cana awi deng kawmsaw; thlangkhqi ce ak thym cana uk kaw.
And, he, will judge the world in righteousness, He will minister judgment to peoples, in uprightness.
9 Bawipa taw thekha na ak awmkhqi ang dymnaak na awm nawh, kyinaak a awm tym awh ce vawng cak na awm hy.
Thus be Yahweh a refuge for the crushed one, a refuge for times of destitution:
10 Nang ming ak simkhqi ing nang ce ni ypna uhy. Bawipa, nang ingtaw nang anik suikhqi ce am qoeng hyt hyk ti.
Thus let them who know thy Name, put confidence in thee, that thou hast not forsaken the searchers for thee, O Yahweh.
11 Zion awh boei na ak ngawi Bawipa venawh kyihnaak laa sa unawh, a ik-oeih sai ce pilnam thlangkhqi venawh khypyi lah uh.
Sing ye praise to Yahweh, who is seated in Zion, Tell among the peoples his doings.
12 Ikawtih, thlang thi a lawng sak ce sim loet nawh; khawdeng khuikha khqi ing kqangnaak awi ce ang zaak peek kaana am awm hy.
When he was making inquisition for blood, of them, had he remembrance, he forgat not the outcry of the oppressed.
13 Aw Bawipa, ka qaalkhqi ing ani thekhanaak khqi ve toek lah! Nim qeen nawh thihnaak chawmkeng khui awhkawng ni hqui lah.
Show me favour, O Yahweh! Behold my humiliation due to them who hate me, Lift me on high out of the gates of death;
14 Cawhtaw na kyihcahnaak laa ce Zion canu ak chawmkeng awh khypyi thai kawng nyng saw, na hulnaak awh ce zeelnaak awm kaw.
That I may recount all thy praises, In the gates of the daughter of Zion, may exult in thy salvation.
15 Pilnam thlangkhqi ing amik cawh lawk-kqawng khuiawh tla boeih uhy; a mimah ing ami zan hyt lawk awh aawk boeih uhy.
The nations, have sunk, in the pit they had made, In the net which they had hidden, is caught their own foot.
16 Am dyngnaak awh ce Bawipa taw sim lah uh; cehlai thlak chekhqi taw a mimah a kut sai awh ce aawk nawn uhy.
To be known is Yahweh, by the sentence he hath executed, By the doing of his own hands, is he about to strike down the lawless one. [Resounding music. (Selah)
17 Khawsa ak hilh pilnam thlangkhqi ingkaw thlak chekhqi ingtaw phyi na ce cet kawm uh. (Sheol h7585)
The lawless, shall return, to hades, all nations forgetful of God. (Sheol h7585)
18 Ak voethlauh thlangkhqi ce am hilh kawmsaw, khawdeng thlangkhqi ang ngaih-unaak awm am reng tikaw.
For, not always, shall the needy, be forgotten, —[nor, ] the hope of the oppressed, perish for ever.
19 Aw Bawipa, tho lah, thlanghqing ing koeh ni noeng seh; na haiawh pilnam thlang awideng na awm u seh.
Rise! Yahweh! let man not prevail, let the nations be judged before thee.
20 Aw Bawipa, cekkhqi ce kqihnaak ing ly a lap sak khqi lah; pilnam boeih ve thlanghqing mai ni ti sim sak lah.
Appoint, O Yahweh, a terror for them, —Let the nations know [that] they are men. (Selah)
