Maschil of Asaph. O God, why hast thou cast [us] off for ever? Why doth thine anger smoke against the sheep of thy pasture?

Remember thy congregation, which thou hast gotten of old, Which thou hast redeemed to be the tribe of thine inheritance; [And] mount Zion, wherein thou hast dwelt.

Lift up thy feet unto the perpetual ruins, All the evil that the enemy hath done in the sanctuary.

Thine adversaries have roared in the midst of thine assembly; They have set up their ensigns for signs.

They seemed as men that lifted up Axes upon a thicket of trees.

And now all the carved work thereof They break down with hatchet and hammers.
7 Amahon namuntheng a na mintheng kitahdohho chu asuboh un,
They have set thy sanctuary on fire; They have profaned the dwelling-place of thy name [by casting it] to the ground.
8 Chuban in jong “abonchan suseu hite” akitikit uvin, Elohim Pathen houna mun jouse jong anahallhah u ahitai.
They said in their heart, Let us make havoc of them altogether: They have burned up all the synagogues of God in the land.
9 Keihon melchihna thil kidangtahho chu ka mudohjou tapouvin ahi. Themgaoho jouse la aumgam tapouvin, chule hiche hi itihleh kichai ding ti chu koimacha ahe aumpon ahi.
We see not our signs: There is no more any prophet; Neither is there among us any that knoweth how long.

How long, O God, shall the adversary reproach? Shall the enemy blaspheme thy name for ever?

Why drawest thou back thy hand, even thy right hand? [Pluck it] out of thy bosom [and] consume [them].

Yet God is my King of old, Working salvation in the midst of the earth.

Thou didst cleave fountain and flood: Thou driedst up mighty rivers.
16 Sun le jan jong nang'a ahin: nangman vanlai jol'a avahho jouse le nisa jong na sem in ahi.
The day is thine, the night also is thine: Thou hast prepared the light and the sun.
17 Nangman leiset gamgiho jouse jong na lhehkhen in chule nipilai le phalbilai jong na gongtoh in ahi.
Thou hast set all the borders of the earth: Thou hast made summer and winter.
18 Ven Yahweh Pakai hiche melmaho hin ichangei a nangma hi na houset'u hitam, ima hetkhenna neilou nam miten na min hi asuminseuvin ahi.
Remember this, that the enemy hath reproached, O Jehovah, And that a foolish people hath blasphemed thy name.
19 Hiche gamsa tobang miphalouho hi vapal tobang miphaho hi suhmangsah hihbeh in, na mite gentheina hi itihchan'in jong sumil hihbeh in.
Oh deliver not the soul of thy turtle-dove unto the wild beast: Forget not the life of thy poor for ever.
20 Na kitepna kinep umtahho chu sumil hihbeh in, ajeh chu gamsung hi muthim le pumhat a natohna adimset e!
Have respect unto the covenant; For the dark places of the earth are full of the habitations of violence.

Oh let not the oppressed return ashamed: Let the poor and needy praise thy name.
22 Na melmate'n na housetnaho le na doumah mah asap a saptho jenghou hi nahsahmon koihihbeh in.
Arise, O God, plead thine own cause: Remember how the foolish man reproacheth thee all the day.
23 Namel ten aseidoh uchu nungvet kit hih in ahiloule amaho phunchel jing na chu.
Forget not the voice of thine adversaries: The tumult of those that rise up against thee ascendeth continually.
