A Prayer of David. Hear the right, O LORD, attend to my cry, give ear to my prayer, [that goeth] not out of feigned lips.

Let my sentence come forth from thy presence; let thy eyes behold the things that are equal.

They are inclosed in their own fat: with their mouth they speak proudly.
11 Amahon eihin juilutnun eiumkimvel uvin tola selhuh dingin agomkom ahol un ahi.
They have now compassed us in our steps: they have set their eyes bowing down to the earth;
12 Anehding changlhih le keipi bahkai hangtah bang le keipinou vin gamthip lai matding avetlhih le tobang ahiuve.
Like as a lion [that] is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.

Arise, O LORD disappoint him, cast him down: deliver my soul from the wicked, [who is] thy sword:

From men [who are] thy hand, O LORD, from men of the world, [who have] their portion in [this] life, and whose belly thou fillest with thy hid [treasure]: they are full of children, and leave the rest of their [substance] 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.
