La Bu 5
1 O Pakai, ka ocheng ho neingaipeh’in, Kalungthim a kataona jong neigelkhoh peh’in.
For the music director. A psalm of David, to be accompanied by flutes. Lord, please listen to me. Don't ignore my groans of distress.
2 Panpi ngaija kakana neigelkhohpeh’in, kalengpa le ka Pathen; ajeh chu nangma kom’a bou taova kahi.
Hear me pleading for help, my King and my God, because I'm praying to you.
3 O Pakai, jingkah teng kataona nei ngaipeh’in, jingkah seh leh nangma lam sangingtingkangaichat jouse nakom kahinlhut a kinemtah a ngah jingding kahi.
Please listen to what I have to say in the morning, Lord. Every morning I put my requests to you and wait for your reply.
4 Nangma thil phalouho chunga kipah ji Pahen nahipon, migilou ho jong na angsuna aumthei ji pouve.
For you are not a God who has any pleasure in wickedness; evil has no place with you.
5 Nangma angsunga mikiletsah ho adingjou jipon; Pakai nang man gitlou nale chonset bol jouse nathet soh hel e.
The proud cannot come into your presence; you hate everyone who does evil.
6 Nangin jouthu sei ho nasuh mang ding ahi; Pakai in mijoulhep holeh tolthat ho athet ahi.
You destroy those who tell lies. The Lord loathes bloodthirsty and deceptive people.
7 Keima din vang, Nangailut na bulhingsetjal chun na hongsung hunglut nange; Chule nangma ginle jana a nahouin theng mai a bohkhup a chibai kabohding nahi.
But because of the greatness of your trustworthy love, I can come into your house; in awe of you I bow down towards your holy Temple.
8 O Pakai, kamelma ten eijo lounadin nalamdih a neipui in. Kamasanga um lampi hi kajuidih nadin neihin lhun jang peh in.
Lead me, Lord, you who always does what is right, save me from my enemies. Make your way clear to me.
9 Ajeh chu kamelmate kamsung'a thutah apotthei tapon, asunglam’u jong setnajeng ahitai; Alol sung ujong lhankhuh abangin, alei ujong chuchi a kilhunglut kalbi abang e.
Nothing they say can be trusted; their main desire is to destroy. Their throat is like an open grave; their tongues are full of flattery.
10 O Pakai ama ho khu gotna petan. Aduhabol nauhi amaho lhuh na hihen! Achonsetnao ho jeh’in delmang jeng’in, ajeh chu amahohin nangma dounan na atong’un ahi.
God, condemn them as guilty! Make them fall because of their evil plans. Throw them out because of all their sins, for they have rebelled against you.
11 Ahin koihileh nangma lhalim noi’a umho chu thanom’u hen! Nangma thangvahna lachu kipahtah’in sajingu hen! Amaho chunga nalhajah in hoidoh jing in lang, Nangma min ngailu jing ho jong kipa na lodim jing’u hen.
But may all those who trust in you be happy—may they sing for joy forever. May you spread your protection over them so that everyone who loves your character may celebrate.
12 O Pakai, nang’in michonpha ho phatthei naboh tei in. Nalungtoh te ngailut na ompho phatah achun nahoibit jing e.
For you, Lord, bless those who live right; you protect them with your shield of love.
