La Bu 44
1 O Elohim Pathen, phat sottah masanga kapu kapateo khanglai a nanatoh nathil bolho eina seipeh u chu keiho tah in kanakol un kanajaove:
To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, Maschil. We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, [what] work thou didst in their days, in the times of old.
2 Nangin nangma helou namtin vaipi ho naban thahat in nana deljam in agam leiset uchu kapu kapateo nanapen ahi. Nangin agalmiteo nana suhlhuh peh in kapu kapateo chu nana chamlhat sah in ahi.
[How] thou didst drive out the heathen with thy hand, and plantedst them; [how] thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out.
3 Amahon achemjam uva gal anajouva gam analah u ahipoi; aban thahat uva jong gal anajou ahipoi. Amavang nangma ban thahat leh namaivah chun gal nana jopeh ahibouve ajeh chu nangin amaho chu nana ngailun ahi.
For they got not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favour unto them.
4 Nangma kalengpa le Elohim ka Pathen nahin nangin Israel te dingin gal nana jo peh tai.
Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob.
5 Nangma thahatna jal a bou kagal miteo kanungno jouvu ahin naming a bou keihon eidouhou kachotphao ahibouve.
Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us.
6 Keiman kathalpi kasongpoi, kachemjamin eihuhdoh dingjong kakinempoi.
For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.
7 Nangma bouvin kagalmi teo chunga galjona neipeh u ahibouve, hitihin nangin eihotbol teo chu jumna napejin ahi.
But thou hast saved us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame that hated us.
8 O Elohim Pathen naloupina ho hi tantih neilou va ka samphon jing diu, chule a kumkho a ka thangvah jing diu ahi.
In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever. (Selah)
9 Ahinla tunvang nangin jumthetna neipaidoh u ahitai. Nangin ka sepia hou jengjong neilamkai peh tapouve.
But thou hast cast off, and put us to shame; and goest not forth with our armies.
10 Nangin kagalmi teu va kon in neinung jamsah un chuleh eidou houchu kagamsung u nalosah tai.
Thou makest us to turn back from the enemy: and they which hate us spoil for themselves.
11 Nangin kelngoiho bangin eikisat chen chen sah gamtaovin chitin vaipi lah a neithe thang gamtaove.
Thou hast given us like sheep [appointed] for meat; and hast scattered us among the heathen.
12 Nangin nasahlut namitehi manbai tah in najohdoh in man neilouhel toh nabah sahtai.
Thou sellest thy people for nought, and dost not increase [thy wealth] by their price.
13 Nangin kaheng kakomhou noise neichansah taovin kavelluva mite taitom le houset dingbep in neikoitaove.
Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and a derision to them that are round about us.
14 Nangin amaho totthang hoina bepseo neihisah taovin isahlou tah in alu eihih khum taovin ahi.
Thou makest us a byword among the heathen, a shaking of the head among the people.
15 Ki taitom jingna a konhin kakile doh jouta pouvin kamai uva jumleh jachat mel kapu den taove.
My confusion [is] continually before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me,
16 Kajah uhi eitaitomteo housetna thucheng ngen ahin, kamit uva kamu houhi ahileh kachunguva phula nom dougal mite ngen ahiuve.
For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and avenger.
17 Hichenghi kathoh jeng vangun keihon nangma kasumil deh pouvin ahi. Kitepna thuchengho jong kasukeh deh pouve.
All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt falsely in thy covenant.
18 Kalung thim un nangma kanuse deh pouvin nalampia konin jong kajam mangdeh pouve.
Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from thy way;
19 Hinlah nangin sial chenna neldi gam anei suchipden taove, nangin thina le muthim neikhu khum taove.
Though thou hast sore broken us in the place of dragons, and covered us with the shadow of death.
20 I jemtia keihon Elohim ka Pathen u min kasuh mil uva ahilouleh gamdang semthu pathen houna a kakhut u kalhandoh khah uva ahileh,
If we have forgotten the name of our God, or stretched out our hands to a strange god;
21 Elohim Pathen in ahet teiding ahi ajeh chu Aman mihem lungthim a thuguh jouse ahet ahi.
Shall not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
22 Ahin, nangma jal in niseh in eiki thatnun; kelngoi bangin eiki that taove.
Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.
23 O Yahweh Pakai hung thoudoh in ibol a na imut ham? Hung thoudoh in! neipaidoh pai pai hihbeh un.
Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast [us] not off for ever.
24 Ipidinga namai naheimang ham? Kathohgim naoleh eibolset naohi nanahsah lou hitam?
Wherefore hidest thou thy face, [and] forgettest our affliction and our oppression?
25 Keiho leivui lah a kalhumat gam taove, bonlhoh lah a akhupbon kakijam taove.
For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth unto the earth.
26 Hung kipatdoh inlang! Neikithopiuvin! Nami ngailutna longlou chun neihung lhatdoh taovin.
Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies’ sake.
