La Bu 143
1 Vo Yahweh Pakai, kataona ngaijin. Kangeh hi nei ngaipeh teijin! Nangma kitahna le dihna bang in, neidonbut in.
Hear, O Lord, my prayer: give ear to my supplication in thy truth: hear me in thy justice.
2 Nalhacha hi nei patep hih in chule kachung thu jong tan hihbeh in, ajeh chu koima na ang-sunga adih aumpoi.
And enter not into judgment with thy servant: for in thy sight no man living shall be justified.
3 Ajeh chu kagal miten eihin del peh in, kahing chang in tolgoi nan ineijin, lhan khuh-a athisa umho bangin, kada kacham louvin muthim lah'a eiumsah tai.
For the enemy hath persecuted my soul: he hath brought down my life to the earth. He hath made me to dwell in darkness as those that have been dead of old:
4 Hijeh chun keiman kinepna ding kanei tapon, kalung sung kichatnan adim e.
And my spirit is in anguish within me: my heart within me is troubled.
5 Keiman khanglui nikho chesa ho kageldoh'in, nakhut tenia natohdohsa thil thupi ho kagel jing in ahi.
I remembered the days of old, I meditated on all thy works: I meditated upon the works of thy hands.
6 Kakhut tenin nahenglam kasang'in kataovin, Gamgo-in sadoh leuva twi angaichat bang in; keiman nangma kangaichan ahi.
I stretched forth my hands to thee: my soul is as earth without water unto thee.
7 O Yahweh Pakai, nei donbut loijin, ajeh chu kahin kho bei pai ding ahitai. Keija kon'in kihei mang hih in, ijeh-inem itileh lhan khuh-a lhalut ho kabah ding ahi.
Hear me speedily, O Lord: my spirit hath fainted away. Turn not away thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.
8 Jingkah sehleh nalungsetna longlou neijahsah in, ajeh chu keima kingaina nangbou nahi. Kalam lhahna jouse neihil them in, kahin kho hi nangma dia kaphal theng ahi.
Cause me to hear thy mercy in the morning; for in thee have I hoped. Make the way known to me, wherein I should walk: for I have lifted up my soul to thee.
9 O Yahweh Pakai, kagal mitea kon'in neihuhdoh in, nahenga kisel dinga hung jamlut kahi bouve.
Deliver me from my enemies, O Lord, to thee have I fled:
10 Ka Pathen Elohim nahi, nadeilam bolje neihil in, name khotona lhagao chun dettah'a pan kalah jingna din neipui jing in.
Teach me to do thy will, for thou art my God. Thy good spirit shall lead me into the right land:
11 O Yahweh Pakai, namin loupina ding in kahinkho hinghoi teijin. Ajeh chu nakitahna jal'in kahahsatna'a kon in nei puidoh tan.
For thy name’s sake, O Lord, thou wilt quicken me in thy justice. Thou wilt bring my soul out of trouble:
12 Nami ngailutna longlou chun, kagal mite manthahsan in! Chule nalhacha kahi, eidou ho jouse sumang hel in.
And in thy mercy thou wilt destroy my enemies. And thou wilt cut off all them that afflict my soul: for I am thy servant.
