La Bu 51
1 O Pathen Elohim, na mingailutna longlou jeh'in na mi khotona chu neimusah in. Na mi hepina kidangtah jeh chun ka chonset nenbeh jouse neisuhbei peh in.
“To the chief musician, a psalm of David, When Nathan the prophet came unto him, after he had gone in unto Bath-sheba'.” Be gracious unto me, O God, according to thy kindness: according to the greatness of thy mercies blot out my transgressions.
2 Kathemmona ho jouse'a kon'in neisutheng in lang neisoptheng in, ka chonsetna a kon'in neisuthengsel in.
Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
3 Ajeh chu ka phatlouna ka kihet'in sun le jan'in eijui jing'in ahi.
For of my transgressions I have full knowledge; and my sin is before me continually.
4 Nangma douna mong'a chonse ka hi, Nangma mitmun thilse chu ka na bol tai. Na thusei in nadihna aphondoh ding ahi, chuleh ka chung'a nathutan jong adih'in ahi.
To thee, thee only, have I sinned, and what is evil in thy eyes have I done: —in order that thou mightest be righteous when thou speakest, be justified when thou judgest.
5 Ajeh chu ka nu oisung'a ka ki jil'a pat'a chonset pum'a kijil ka hin chonsesa hung peng a ka hi.
Behold, in iniquity was I brought forth; and in sin did my mother conceive me.
6 Hinla nang'in ka nu oisung'a pat'in jong atheng a ka um ding nana ngaichat ahin hiche mun jeng'a jong chu chihna lungthim neina hilpat ahitai.
Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: therefore do thou cause me to know wisdom in the recesses [of the heart].
7 Ka chonsetna a kon'in neisutheng lechun ka then ding ahitai, neisoptheng lechun buhbang sang'in theng tang'e.
Cleanse me from sin with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
8 Oh! Ka kipana neipekit in, nang'in nei hesoh sah ahin tun neikipasah kit tan.
Cause me to hear gladness and joy; that the bones which thou hast crushed may rejoice.
9 Ka chonsetna ho neivet peh jing hih in, ka setna nenbeh ho sumang in.
Hide thy face from my sins, and all my iniquities do thou blot out.
10 Lungthimthah neisem peh in O Yahweh Pakai. Kasunga um lhagao hi nei thah sempeh in.
Create unto me a clean heart, O God; and a firm spirit renew thou within me.
11 Na angsung'a kon'in neipaidoh hih'in, chuleh keija kon'in na Lhagao Theng chu lamang hih'in.
Cast me not away from thy presence; and thy holy spirit do not take from me.
12 Nei huhhing nikho'a ka kipana chu avel'in neipe kit in lang chuleh nathu'a nung jing mi neihisah in,
Restore unto me the gladness of thy salvation; and with a liberal spirit do thou support me.—
13 Chuteng na thua nunglou ho jong nangma deilam'a ahung chonna di'uva ka hil ding chutengleh amaho nangma kom lang'a hung kile kit ding ahi'uve.
I will teach transgressors thy ways, and sinners shall return unto thee.
14 O Pathen Elohim mi huhhingpu, keiman thisan kaso tahjeh in neingaidam'in chutileh neingaidamna chu kipah tah'a vahchoila a ka sah ding ahi.
Deliver me from blood-guiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation; [that] my tongue may sing aloud of thy righteousness.
15 O Yahweh Pakai lungnachim'a nangma ka vahchoi theina ding'in ka lei neilhap peh'in.
O Lord, open thou my lips, and my mouth shall declare thy praise.
16 Nangman kilhaina thilpeh na ngaicha pon, pumgo thilto ding khat jong na ngaicha pon ahi.
For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: in burnt-offering hast thou no delight.
17 Nang in na ngaichat kilhaina chu-Lhagaova kisuh gep ahin, nang'in lung kisuchip pum'a kisihna neiho napaidoh poi o Yahweh Pakai.
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, wilt thou not despise.
18 Zion hi lungsetna mitvet in venlang hin kithopin, Jerusalem pal hinsem phan.
Do good in thy favor unto Zion; build thou the walls of Jerusalem.
19 Chutengleh kilhaina lungtheng sel a kipe pumgo thilto hon lunglhai in natin chule pumgo thil to pum bongchal ho avel'in hung kikatdoh tante.
Then wilt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt-offering and entire offering: then shall bullocks be offered upon thy altar.
