La Bu 61

1 O Elohim Pathen ka kana neingaipeh in! Ka taona hi ngai in!

Unto the end. With hymns, of David. O God, pay attention to my supplication. Be attentive to my prayer.

2 Lungsung lunghemnan eilonkhum teng leiset kol kimvel a kon'in panpi ngaichan ka hin kou e. Hoidoh na songpi sang chung'ah neipuitou in,

I cried out to you from the ends of the earth. When my heart was in anguish, you exalted me on a rock. You have led me,

3 ajeh chu nangma hi ka kiselna mun olna pen chu na hi, ka melmate'n ahin phahjoulouna kulpi chu nangma na hi.

for you have been my hope, a tower of strength before the face of the enemy.

4 Na mun theng'a tonsot'in neichensah in hilai chu na lha limnoi kiselna chu ahi.

I will dwell in your tabernacle forever. I will be protected under the cover of your wings.

5 O Elohim Pathen ka kitepna chu nei jahpehtai, nangma gingte chan dia na gonpeh na goulona mun chu neipeh ahitai.

For you, my God, have listened to my prayer. You have granted an inheritance to those who fear your name.

6 Lengpa hinkho hi kum tamtah pehben! Khangkit geiin jong hinghoi in!

You will add days to the days of the king, to his years, even to the time of generation after generation.

7 Elohim Pathen hoidam na achun vai hom jing hen. Na mi ngailutna longlou le na kitahna chun kaihoi jing hen.

He remains in eternity, in the sight of God. Who will long for his mercy and truth?

8 Hiteng chuleh nitina ka kitepna suh bulhit ingkating tonsot'in na min thangvah jing tang e.

So I will compose a psalm to your name, forever and ever, so that I may repay my vows from day to day.
