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 OVERSEER. AN INSTRUCTION OF THE SONS OF KORAH. O God, we have heard with our ears, Our fathers have recounted to us, The work You worked in their days, In the days 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.
You, [with] Your hand, have dispossessed nations. And You plant them. You afflict peoples, and send them away.
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 did not possess the land by their sword, And their arm did not give salvation to them, But Your right hand, and Your arm, And the light of Your countenance, Because You had accepted them.
4 Nangma kalengpa le Elohim ka Pathen nahin nangin Israel te dingin gal nana jo peh tai.
You [are] He, my King, O God, Command the deliverances of Jacob.
5 Nangma thahatna jal a bou kagal miteo kanungno jouvu ahin naming a bou keihon eidouhou kachotphao ahibouve.
By You we push our adversaries, By Your Name we tread down our withstanders,
6 Keiman kathalpi kasongpoi, kachemjamin eihuhdoh dingjong kakinempoi.
For I do not trust in my bow, And my sword does not save me.
7 Nangma bouvin kagalmi teo chunga galjona neipeh u ahibouve, hitihin nangin eihotbol teo chu jumna napejin ahi.
For You have saved us from our adversaries, And You have put to shame those hating 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 have boasted all the day, And we thank Your Name for all time. (Selah)
9 Ahinla tunvang nangin jumthetna neipaidoh u ahitai. Nangin ka sepia hou jengjong neilamkai peh tapouve.
In anger You have cast off and cause us to blush, And do not go forth with our hosts.
10 Nangin kagalmi teu va kon in neinung jamsah un chuleh eidou houchu kagamsung u nalosah tai.
You cause us to turn backward from an adversary, And those hating us, Have spoiled for themselves.
11 Nangin kelngoiho bangin eikisat chen chen sah gamtaovin chitin vaipi lah a neithe thang gamtaove.
You make us food like sheep, And You have scattered us among nations.
12 Nangin nasahlut namitehi manbai tah in najohdoh in man neilouhel toh nabah sahtai.
You sell Your people—without wealth, And have not become great by their price.
13 Nangin kaheng kakomhou noise neichansah taovin kavelluva mite taitom le houset dingbep in neikoitaove.
You make us a reproach to our neighbors, A scorn and a reproach to our surrounders.
14 Nangin amaho totthang hoina bepseo neihisah taovin isahlou tah in alu eihih khum taovin ahi.
You make us an allegory among nations, A shaking of the head among peoples.
15 Ki taitom jingna a konhin kakile doh jouta pouvin kamai uva jumleh jachat mel kapu den taove.
All the day my confusion [is] before me, And the shame of my face has covered me.
16 Kajah uhi eitaitomteo housetna thucheng ngen ahin, kamit uva kamu houhi ahileh kachunguva phula nom dougal mite ngen ahiuve.
Because of the voice of a reproacher and reviler, Because of an enemy and a self-avenger.
17 Hichenghi kathoh jeng vangun keihon nangma kasumil deh pouvin ahi. Kitepna thuchengho jong kasukeh deh pouve.
All this met us, and we did not forget You, Nor have we dealt falsely in Your covenant.
18 Kalung thim un nangma kanuse deh pouvin nalampia konin jong kajam mangdeh pouve.
We do not turn our heart backward, Nor turn aside our step from Your path.
19 Hinlah nangin sial chenna neldi gam anei suchipden taove, nangin thina le muthim neikhu khum taove.
But You have struck us in a place of dragons, And cover us over with death-shade.
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, And spread our hands to a strange God,
21 Elohim Pathen in ahet teiding ahi ajeh chu Aman mihem lungthim a thuguh jouse ahet ahi.
Does God not search this out? For He knows the secrets of the heart.
22 Ahin, nangma jal in niseh in eiki thatnun; kelngoi bangin eiki that taove.
Surely, for Your sake we have been slain all the day, Reckoned as sheep of the slaughter.
23 O Yahweh Pakai hung thoudoh in ibol a na imut ham? Hung thoudoh in! neipaidoh pai pai hihbeh un.
Stir up—why do You sleep, O Lord? Awake, do not cast us off forever.
24 Ipidinga namai naheimang ham? Kathohgim naoleh eibolset naohi nanahsah lou hitam?
Why do You hide Your face? You forget our afflictions and our oppression,
25 Keiho leivui lah a kalhumat gam taove, bonlhoh lah a akhupbon kakijam taove.
For our soul has bowed to the dust, Our belly has cleaved to the earth.
26 Hung kipatdoh inlang! Neikithopiuvin! Nami ngailutna longlou chun neihung lhatdoh taovin.
Arise, a help to us, And ransom us for your kindness’ sake.
