La Bu 43

1 O Elohim Pathen themmona bei kahi neiphongdoh in! Elohim Pathen ginglou hoa kon in nei vengdoh in, chutengleh mikitah lou holeh joupan hoa kon in neihuhdoh in.

Vindicate me, God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation. Oh, deliver me from deceitful and wicked men.

2 Ajeh chu nanghi kakiselna Pathen Elohim nahi, ibol a neipaidoh hitam? Ibol a keima kadougal ten eibolset jeh a lunggim a kava lele dingham?

For you are the God of my strength. Why have you rejected me? Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

3 Nadih na le navah na chu neihinsol peh in, hichun eilamhil hen. Hihochun nangma chenna muol theng chu eilhut hen.

Oh, send out your light and your truth. Let them lead me. Let them bring me to your holy hill, To your tents.

4 Hikomma chun keima Elohim Pathen maicham achu kasemjang puma kathang vahding ahi, O Pathen Elohim.

Then I will go to the altar of God, to God, my exceeding joy. I will yadah ·extend hands in thankful praise· to you on the harp, God, my God.

5 Idia lungkham kahim? Ipidinga kalung lhadah ham? Keiman kakinepna Elohim Pathen a koi inge! Eihuhhingpa le Elohim ka Pathen keiman nangma thangvah kit inge!

Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God! For I shall still yadah ·extend hands in thankful praise· to him: my yishu'ah ·Savior·, my helper, and my God.
