La Bu 39
1 “Katohna chunga chingthei tah in thil bol ing kating, kathusei doh chenga chonseponge. Kavel a Elohim Pathen ginglou ho aumteng kalei kakituh tang ding ahi” tin kei le kei kakihou ve.
To the Overseer, to Jeduthun. — A Psalm of David. I have said, 'I observe my ways, Against sinning with my tongue, I keep for my mouth a curb, while the wicked [is] before me.'
2 Hinla hitia thipbeh a kaum a thupha jeng jong changkhat cha seilouva kaum chun kalung sunga lung gimna akhoh secheh in ahi.
I was dumb [with] silence, I kept silent from good, and my pain is excited.
3 Kalunga kagelbe chan in kalung gimna akhoh cheh in, hiti chun seilou in kaum theipon ahi:
Hot [is] my heart within me, In my meditating doth the fire burn, I have spoken with my tongue.
4 “Yahweh Pakai leiset a kahinkhohi ichan a chom hitam neihin hetsah jing in, kahin nikhohi akisim jinghi neigeldoh sah in, kahin kho iti chom hitam?
'Cause me to know, O Jehovah, mine end, And the measure of my days — what it [is],' I know how frail I [am].
5 Nangin kahinkhov hi ichangeija chom a nasem hitam kakhut phang sangin jong asaojo poi. Nang dingin kahinkho lhum kei jong hi haikhat bou ahi soh tan, Mihem hinkho khat cheh jong hi haikhat cheh bou ahi.”
Lo, handbreadths Thou hast made my days, And mine age [is] as nothing before Thee, Only, all vanity [is] every man set up. (Selah)
6 Mihem hinkho hi milom kitol bang bep bou ahin, kisah lunggim naho jong hetman lou kah in akichai loi ji tai. Gou ikhol khom un, kon ahin manding ham jong ihe doh ji pouve.
Only, in an image doth each walk habitually, Only, [in] vain, they are disquieted, He heapeth up and knoweth not who gathereth them.
7 Hijeh chun Yahweh Pakai hoi a kinep na kakoi ding ham? Nanga bou kakinep na aum e.
And, now, what have I expected? O Lord, my hope — it [is] of Thee.
8 Kaset bolnom na a kon in neihuh doh in, mingol ho neinoise sah hih in.
From all my transgressions deliver me, A reproach of the fool make me not.
9 Keima na ansung a thipchet in kaum e; imacha jong kasei louding ahi.
I have been dumb, I open not my mouth, Because Thou — Thou hast done [it].
10 Ahinla Yahweh Pakai nei engbol hih in! Nakhut gu dounan kachao lhagam tai.
Turn aside from off me Thy stroke, From the striving of Thy hand I have been consumed.
11 Kachonset u suhdih na dia neijep tengu le, kasah lut u chonsetna chu nget in aneh bang in ajun lhaji tan ahi. Tahbeh in mihem khat cheh hi haikhat bou ahi.
With reproofs against iniquity, Thou hast corrected man, And dost waste as a moth his desirableness, Only, vanity [is] every man. (Selah)
12 O Yahweh Pakai kataona ngai in lang panpi ngaija kataona neingai pih in! kamit lhi lon nah sah mon koi hih in, ajeh chu keima hi namaljin bou kahin, kema masang a kapu kapa teu bang a kholjin vahle kahi bouve.
Hear my prayer, O Jehovah, And [to] my cry give ear, Unto my tear be not silent, For a sojourner I [am] with Thee, A settler like all my fathers.
13 Hiche leiset hinkho hi kadalhah a kahin kho abei masang kakipa a kanui kit na din nalung han na, nagim bol na ho toh neichom khen in.
Look from me, and I brighten up before I go and am not!
