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. Lord, my rock, I'm calling out to you. Please listen to me! For if you don't respond, I'll be like those who go down into the grave.
2 Hepina ngeh a neipanpi dia katao teng nei ngaipeh tei in, kakhut kahin domsang in namun theng lam kahinsan e.
Listen as I appeal for mercy, as I call for help, as I hold up my hands in prayer towards your 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.
Don't drag me off with the wicked, with those who do evil, who speak nicely to their neighbors while in their minds they're plotting evil.
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 what they deserve for their evil actions. Pay them back for what they've done. Give them the reward they've earned!
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.
For they don't pay any attention to what the Lord does, or to what he created. So he will destroy them—they will never be restored.
6 Yahweh Pakai chu thangvah in umhen! Ajeh chu khotona kangaicha a kataona chu eijah pehtai.
Praise the Lord! For he has heard my appeal for mercy!
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 strength and my shield. I trust in him and he helps me. I'm so happy, and I sing my thanks to him.
8 Yahweh Pakai in amite thahat apei, amahi athaonu lengpa dinga ahoidohna kulpi ahi
The Lord gives strength to his people; he is a safe refuge for the one he has anointed.
9 Namite huhhing in! Kelngoi chingpha bangin nagoulu Israel chu phatthei bohtan, chule tonsot in amahohi nabanjetnin puitan.
Save your people! Bless your “special possession”! Be their shepherd and carry them in your arms forever!
