La Bu 28

1 O Yahweh Pakai kasongpi nakom a kataove, Ngaipeh lou in neikoi hih beh in. Ajeh chu nangin neithip sanleh keijong lhadah ing kating kathi ding ahitai.

[A Psalm] of David. To thee, O Lord, have I cried; my God, be not silent toward me: lest thou be silent toward me, and so I should be likened to them that go down to the pit.

2 Hepina ngeh a neipanpi dia katao teng nei ngaipeh tei in, kakhut kahin domsang in namun theng lam kahinsan e.

Hearken to the voice of my supplication, when I pray to thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy temple.

3 Thilse bolnom jing a, akam uva thungei ngei seija alung sunguva thilse jeng gonle ho to nei sumang tha hih beh in.

Draw not away my soul with sinners, and destroy me not with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace with their neighbours, but evils are in their hearts.

4 Amahon achanding dol u athilse bolu toh kitoh in got na pejengin! Athilse bolu dungjui chetnin lethuh jengin! Michunga athilse bol gu'utoh kitoh in amaho chungah chuhsah in.

Give them according to their works, and according to the wickedness of their devices: give them according to the works of their hands; render their recompense unto them.

5 Yahweh Pakai in ipi abolham ti amahon anahsah pouve, Elohim Pathen khut sem ipi jeh a umham agel pouve, hijeh a chu aman abotel a tonsot gei a kitung doh lou diu ahitai.

Because they have not attended to the works of the Lord, even to the works of his hands, thou shalt pull them down, and shalt not build them up.

6 Yahweh Pakai chu thangvah in umhen! Ajeh chu khotona kangaicha a kataona chu eijah pehtai.

Blessed be the Lord, for he has hearkened to the voice of my petition.

7 Yahweh Pakai hi kahat nale kalum ahi. Kalungthim pumpin amachu katah san e. Aman eikithopin kalungthim kipanan adim e. Thangvahna la'n keiman kasam phonge.

The Lord is my helper and my defender; my heart has hoped in him, and I am helped: my flesh has revived, and willingly will I give praise to him.

8 Yahweh Pakai in amite thahat apei, amahi athaonu lengpa dinga ahoidohna kulpi ahi

The Lord is the strength of his people, and the saving defender of his anointed.

9 Namite huhhing in! Kelngoi chingpha bangin nagoulu Israel chu phatthei bohtan, chule tonsot in amahohi nabanjetnin puitan.

Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: and take care of them, and lift them up for ever.
