La Bu 54

1 O Elohim Pathen thaneitah in hung'in lang neihuhdoh in! Na thahatnan nei veng'in.

TO THE OVERSEER. WITH STRINGED INSTRUMENTS. AN INSTRUCTION OF DAVID, IN THE COMING IN OF THE ZIPHIM, AND THEY SAY TO SAUL, “IS DAVID NOT HIDING HIMSELF WITH US?” O God, save me by Your Name, and judge me by Your might.

2 O Elohim Pathen ka taona ngaijin, ka thumna hi neihin gelkhoh peh'in,

O God, hear my prayer, Give ear to the sayings of my mouth,

3 Ajeh chu gamdang mite'n eihin delkhum uvin, mi engse ten tha ding'in eihol'un ahi, amahon Elohim Pathen imachan agel pouve.

For strangers have risen up against me And terrible ones have sought my soul, They have not set God before them. (Selah)

4 Ahinlah kei ding'in Elohim Pathen hi eipanpi ahin, Yahweh Pakai hin eihinghoi ahi.

Behold, God [is] a helper to me, The Lord [is] with those supporting my soul,

5 Ka galmi ten thilse agon jouse'u hi amaho chunga le chuh hen! Na dei dan tah in achung uva na tong'in lang amaho khu subei in.

Turn back the evil to my enemies, Cut them off in Your truth.

6 Keiman naheng a kiphal tah in thilpeh hinchoi ing e; Keiman namin hinthang vah ing kate Yahweh Pakai, ajeh chu hichu apha ahi.

I sacrifice to You with a free-will offering, I thank Your Name, O YHWH, for [it is] good,

7 Ajeh chu Yahweh Pakai nang'in ka hesohna a kon'in neihuhdoh tan, ka galmite chung'a jong galjona neimusah tan ahi.

For He delivered me from all adversity, And my eye has looked on my enemies!
