“For the leader of the music; to be accompanied with stringed instruments. A psalm of David.” Hear me, when I call, O God of my righteousness! Thou hast helped me, when I was in trouble, —Have pity upon me, and hear my prayer!
2 Vo mihem chapate, nanghohin itihchanpi neisuh jum diu hitam? Itihchan ajehbei a nei thepmosah uva, itihchan pihi jouthu nachepi diu hitam?
How long, O men! will ye dishonor my dignity? How long will ye love vanity, and seek disappointment? (Pause)
3 Ahin nanghon heuvin, Yahweh Pakai in ama gingho Ama ding'in atum'in alhengdoh'e. Yahweh Pakai kakou tengleh Aman ei-donbut teijin ahi.
Know ye that the LORD hath exalted one that is devoted to him; The LORD will hear, when I call upon him.
4 Ki sonlelnan kithing pumin umun, ahin chonset boldaovin; hichu nalupnao muna jong nalungthimu toh gelkhom jinguvin lang umdet jingun.
Stand in awe, and sin no more; Commune with your hearts upon your beds, and desist! (Pause)
5 Lungthengsel a kilhai naho boljingun chule natahsan nao Yahweh Pakai a koi jingun.
Offer sacrifices of righteousness, And put your trust in the LORD!
6 Hiho sanga phajo eimusah thei diu koi ham? tin mitamtah'in seiunte, Yahweh Pakai namaivah achun keiho neihinsu emsel un.
There are many who say, Who will show us any good? LORD, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us!
7 Nangman lengpitwi leh changle mim nengchat'a kilamdoh ho kipani sangin, kalungthim nakipasah tai.
Thou puttest gladness into my heart, Greater than theirs, when their corn and wine are abundant.
8 Keima Nanga dia lungmonga kalup a ka-ihmut ding ahi, Yahweh Pakai nei hoidoh inlang neivengtup in.
I will lay me down in peace, and sleep: For thou alone, O LORD! makest me dwell in safety.
