1 O Yahweh Pakai adih thumna a kaka ogin hi nei jahpeh in, katao nahi nei ngaipeh in, lungthengsel le dih tah katao ahi.
A Prayer of David. Hear the right, O LORD, attend unto my cry; give ear unto my prayer from lips without deceit.
2 Kathem chan na neiphondoh peh'in, ajeh chu nangin thudih a natong namuchet ahi.
Let my judgment come forth from Thy presence; let Thine eyes behold equity.
3 Nangin kalunggel ho napatep jin, janteng jongle kalungsung navelhaji. Nangin kapum changin neivechillin kathepmo na namupoi; kakamsung jenga jong set na potlou ding ahitai.
Thou hast tried my heart, Thou hast visited it in the night; Thou hast tested me, and Thou findest not that I had a thought which should not pass my mouth.
4 Keiman nathupeh Dan dungjuiin, migilou ho le mi-engseho ho khonung kajui ji poi.
As for the doings of men, by the word of Thy lips I have kept me from the ways of the violent.
5 Kakalson dan hin nalampi kajui jingin nangma lampia konnin kapotdoh pon ahi.
My steps have held fast to Thy paths, my feet have not slipped.

As for me, I call upon Thee, for Thou wilt answer me, O God; incline Thine ear unto me, hear my speech.
7 Nami ngailutna longlou chu kidangtah in neimusah'in, agalmitea konna hoidohna ngaichaho chu nathahatna gimneitah chun nahuh doh ji e.
Make passing great Thy mercies, O Thou that savest by Thy right hand from assailants them that take refuge in Thee.
8 Nangman namit teni na chintup jing bangin keima jong nei vesuijin. Nalhaving limnoija chun neisellin.
Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me in the shadow of Thy wings,
9 Kavel a eidoujing migilouho a kon in eivengtup in, eithatgo kamelma hoa konnin nei huhdoh in.
From the wicked that oppress, my deadly enemies, that compass me about.
10 Amahohi mi khotona bei ahiuvin akiletsah nao thucheng chu ngaitan!
Their gross heart they have shut tight, with their mouth they speak proudly.
11 Amahon eihin juilutnun eiumkimvel uvin tola selhuh dingin agomkom ahol un ahi.
At our every step they have now encompassed us; they set their eyes to cast us down to the earth.

He is like a lion that is eager to tear in pieces, and like a young lion lurking in secret places.
13 Hung kipat tan O Yahweh Pakai kidintepin lang seplhu jengin! Nachemjammin migilouhoa konnin neihuhdoh in.
Arise, O LORD, confront him, cast him down; deliver my soul from the wicked, by Thy sword;
14 O Yahweh Pakai naban thathatnin vannoia ama phatchomna ngaito hohi sumangin. Amavang nangma goulu hohi nangman vah va jing in. Achateu neijong suhnengpeh inlang ason apahteu goulo ding geija adalhah peh theina diuvin gontoh peh'in.
From men, by Thy hand, O LORD, from men of the world, whose portion is in this life, and whose belly Thou fillest with Thy treasure; who have children in plenty, and leave their abundance to their babes.
15 Monabeija hinkho Kaman jeh a namel kamu teiding ahi. Kathodoh tengleh nangma toh kimaitoa ikimuto ding chule kalungnachim tante.
As for me, I shall behold Thy face in righteousness; I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with Thy likeness.
