1 O Yahweh Pakai, miphalou hoa kon'in neihuhdoh in, pumhat-a natong hoa kon'in neihoidohsah'in,
Deliver me, O YHWH, from the evil man: preserve me from the violent man;
2 ajeh chu alung sung'uva thilse jeng agong un, beitih um louvin gal abol jiuvin ahi.
Which imagine mischiefs in their heart; continually are they gathered together for war.
3 Alei gui-u gul in mi achuh bang in amang chauvin, athuseidoh jouseu jong gul-gu tobang ahi.
They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; adders' poison is under their lips. (Selah)
4 O Yahweh Pakai, miphalou ho khutna kon hin neihoidoh in, pumhatna natong hoa kon'in neihuhdoh in; ajeh chu kakipal lhuhna din thisle jeng agong un ahi.
Keep me, O YHWH, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me from the violent man; who have purposed to overthrow my goings.
5 Mi kiletsah hon kei matna din thang akam un, khao ajan-doh'un lampi dunga thang ei-kampeh'un ahi.
The proud have hid a snare for me, and cords; they have spread a net by the wayside; they have set gins for me. (Selah)
6 Keiman Yahweh Pakai kom'a, “Nangma hi ka Pathen Elohim nahi!” O Yahweh Pakai, khotona dinga kataona nei sanpeh tan.
I said unto YHWH, Thou art my El: hear the voice of my supplications, O YHWH.
7 O Yahweh Pakai hatchungnung, athahat pan-a eihuhdoh pa; nangman gal kisat nikhoa nei huhdoh ahi.
O Elohim YHWH, the strength of my salvation, thou hast covered my head in the day of battle.
8 Yahweh Pakai, migilouho adei bang'in chesah hih'in, athilse gonhou chu lolhin sahhih'in; achuti louva ahileh kiletsahna dim diu ahi.
Grant not, O YHWH, the desires of the wicked: further not his wicked device; lest they exalt themselves. (Selah)
9 Kagal miten kachunga thil phalou tohgon anei jal un, manthah nan lhung u-hen.
As for the head of those that compass me about, let the mischief of their own lips cover them.
10 Meiam kong chu alu chunguvah chuhsah'in, meilah'a seplut in; ahilouleh ajamdoh louna diu twiveina kotong'ah lhalut jeng u-hen.
Let burning coals fall upon them: let them be cast into the fire; into deep pits, that they rise not up again.
11 Ka gamsung uva hin ajou jouva mihehse ho khantousah hihbeh'in, pumhat'a natong ho achunguva thilse chuhsah'in lang sumang in.
Let not an evil speaker be established in the earth: evil shall hunt the violent man to overthrow him.
12 Hinlah suhgentheija umte Yahweh Pakai in asumil poi, ti kahen; Aman vaichate thu adih'a atanpeh ding ahi, ti kahei.
I know that YHWH will maintain the cause of the afflicted, and the right of the poor.
13 Tahbeh'in mi kitah hon namin athangvah diu, chule michonpha ho na kom'a cheng diu ahi.
Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto thy name: the upright shall dwell in thy presence.
