They brought the Ark of God and placed it in the tent that David had prepared for it. They presented burnt offerings and friendship offerings to God.
2 Devit ni hmaisawi thuengnae, roum thuengnae naw hah a poe hoiyah BAWIPA e min lahoi taminaw hah yawhawinae a poe.
Once David had finished presenting the burnt offerings and friendship offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the Lord.
3 Isarelnaw pueng teh, napui tongpa abuemlah vaiyei atueng buet touh hoi moituen buet touh, misurphen buet touh rip a poe.
Then he shared out to every Israelite, to every man and woman, a loaf of bread, a date cake, and a raisin cake.
4 Isarel BAWIPA Cathut pahnim hoeh nahan, lunghawilawk dei e, hoi pholen nahanelah, BAWIPA e thingkong hmalah, thaw ka tawk lah Levihnaw tangawn hah a rawi awh.
David assigned some of the Levites to serve as ministers before the Ark of the Lord, to remember, to thank, and to praise the Lord, the God of Israel.
5 Kahrawikung lah Asaph, apâhni lah ratoung ka kueng e Zekhariah, Jeiel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Benaiah, Obededom, Jeiel ni ratoung hoi tamawi a tum, Asaph cecak a khawng.
Asaph was the one in charge, Zechariah was second, then Jeiel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Benaiah, Obed-edom, and Jeiel. They played harps and lyres, and Asaph struck the cymbals,
6 Vaihma Benaiah hoi Jahaziel ni Cathut e lawkkam thingkong e hmalah mongka kamrawicalah a ueng roi.
and the priests Benaiah and Jahaziel blew the trumpets continually in front of the Ark of God's Agreement.
7 Hot nah hnin hoi BAWIPA koe lunghawilawk dei hane Devit ni hete la heh Asaph hoi a hmaunawngha koe hmaloe poung lah a poe.
This was the day that David first instructed Asaph and his relatives to express thanks to the Lord in this way:
8 Oe BAWIPA koevah lunghawilawk dei awh nateh, a min lahoi hram awh. Miphunnaw pueng koe a sak e hno hah panuek sak awh.
Give the Lord thanks, worship his wonderful nature, let people know what he's done!
9 Ama koe la sak awh haw, oupnae hoi ama teh pholen awh. A sak e hno kângairunae pueng hah dei awh.
Sing to him, sing his praises; tell everyone the great things he's done!
10 A min kathoung hah oup awh. BAWIPA ka tawng e naw a lungthinnaw teh hawi awh naseh.
Be proud of his holy character; be happy, all who come to the Lord!
11 BAWIPA e thasainae tawng awh haw, A minhmai hah hoe tawng awh.
Look for the Lord, and his strength; always look to be with him.
12 A sak e kâgairu hnonaw hah pahnim awh hanh. A sak e kângairunae hoi a pahni dawk hoi lawkcengnae hai.
Remember all the wonderful things he's done, the miracles he's performed, and the judgments he's carried out,
13 Oe a san Isarel catounnaw, a rawi e tami Jakop catounnaw,
descendants of Israel, children of Jacob, his chosen people.
14 Ama teh BAWIPA Cathut lah ao. A lawkcengnae teh talai van abuemlah dawk kâ a tawn.
He is the Lord, our God, his judgments cover the whole earth.
15 A lawk kam hah a yungyoe pâkuem awh haw, se 1000 totouh lawk a kam e naw hah.
He remembers his agreement forever, the promise he made lasts for a thousand generations;
16 Abraham koe lawk a kam e naw hah, Isak koe lawk a kam e naw hah,
the agreement he made with Abraham, the vow he gave to Isaac.
17 Hot patetlah Jakop koe kâlawknaw a cak sak, Isarelnaw koe yungyoe e lawkkam pouh e hah a cak sak.
The Lord legally confirmed it with Jacob, he made this everlasting agreement with Israel:
18 Kanaan ram teh na coe e râw lah na poe awh han telah a ti.
saying, “I will give the land of Canaan to you for you to possess.”
19 Tami kayounca lah na o awh, Oe tami younca, imyin patetlah ka o awh navah,
He said this when there were only a few of you, just a small group of foreigners in the land.
20 miphun tangkuem koe hmanghmang kâva e lah, uknaeram tangkuem hoi miphun tangkuem koe,
They wandered from country to country, from one kingdom to the next.
21 Apinihai ka pacekpahlek hanlah pasoung hoeh. Ahnimouh kecu dawk siangpahrangnaw hai a yue awh.
He didn't let anyone one treat them badly; warning kings to leave them alone:
22 Satui ka awi e hah tek awh hanh awh, kaie profetnaw hah patawnae poe awh hanh haw telah a ti.
“Don't touch my chosen people; don't harm my prophets!”
23 Talai taminaw pueng ni BAWIPA pholennae la sak awh nateh, hnintangkuem vah rungngangnae lawk hah pathang awh haw.
Sing to the Lord, all the earth, sing to the Lord! Each day let everyone know of his salvation!
24 Miphun tangkuem koe a bawilennae hah dei awh nateh, tami tangkuem koe a sak e kângairunae pathang awh.
Declare his glorious acts among the nations, the wonderful things he does among all peoples.
25 BAWIPA teh a bawilen poung dawkvah, pholen hanelah ao. Ama teh Cathut pueng hlak vah taki hanelah ao.
For the Lord is great, and deserves the best praise! He is to be respected with awe above all gods.
26 Bangkongtetpawiteh, miphun alouke cathutnaw teh, meikaphawknaw doeh. Hateiteh, BAWIPA ni kalvan teh a sak.
For all the gods of other nations are idols; but the Lord made the heavens!
27 Barinae hoi taluenae teh a hmalah ao. A thaonae hoi lunghawinae ama koe ao.
Splendor and majesty are his; power and glory are in his sanctuary.
28 Oe miphunnaw hoi imthungnaw pueng BAWIPA koe poe awh, BAWIPA koe bawilennae hoi a thasainae hah poe awh.
Give the Lord credit, nations of the world, credit him with glory and strength.
29 BAWIPA teh a min hoi kamcu e bawilennae poe awh. Poe hanlah kaawm e pueng sin awh nateh, a hmalah tâcawtkhai awh. A meihawinae thoungnae hoi BAWIPA teh bawk awh.
Give the Lord the glory he deserves; bring an offering and come before him. Worship the Lord in his magnificent holiness.
30 Talai taminaw pueng amae hmalah pâyaw awh. Kâhuet thai hoeh nahanlah talaivan teh a cak sak.
Let everyone on earth tremble in his presence. The world is held together firmly—it cannot be broken apart.
31 Kalvannaw hai lunghawi naseh, talai hai lunghawi naseh, BAWIPA ni a uk telah miphun tangkuem koe pathang awh.
Let the heavens sing for joy, let the earth be happy. Tell the nations, “The Lord is in charge!”
32 Tuipui hoi a thung kaawm e pueng ni hram awh naseh, law hoi a thung kaawm e pueng ni lunghawi awh naseh.
Let the sea and everything in it shout with praise! Let the fields and everything there celebrate;
33 Kahrawng e thing kaawm e pueng ni BAWIPA e hmalah lunghawi nalaihoi la a sak awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, talai dawk lawkceng hanelah a tho han.
Let all the trees in the forest sing for joy, for he is coming to judge the earth.
34 Oe BAWIPA koevah, lunghawinae lawk dei awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ama teh ahawi. A lungmanae teh a yungyoe a kangning.
Say thank you to the Lord, for he is good! His trustworthy love continues forever!

Shout out, “Save us, Lord, our God! Bring us back together from among the nations, rescue us, so we can thank you and praise how magnificent and holy you are.”
36 Yungyoe hoi yungyoe totouh Isarel BAWIPA Cathut teh, pholennae awm lawiseh, tami pueng ni Amen ati awh teh, BAWIPA teh a pholen awh.
How wonderful is the Lord, the God of Israel, who lives forever and ever! Then all the people said, “Amen!” and “Praise the Lord!”
37 Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA lawkkam thingkong hma lae hnintangkuem a panki e patetlah thaw ka tawk hane Asaph hoi a hmaunawnghanaw a ta.
Then David made sure Asaph and his brothers would minister continually before the Ark of the Lord's Agreement, performing whatever services were needed every day,
38 Obededom hoi a hmaunawngha 68 touh ni a kabawp awh vaiteh, Jeduthun capa Obededom hoi Hosah teh longkha ka ring hanelah ao han.
as well as Obed-edom and his sixty-eight relatives. Obed-edom, son of Jeduthun, and Hosah, were gatekeepers.
39 BAWIPA ni Isarelnaw kâ a poe BAWIPA e kâlawk dawk thut e patetlah hmaisawi thuengnae khoungroe dawkvah, amom tangmin Gibeon hmuenrasang dawk,
David put Zadok the priest and his fellow priests in charge of the Ark of the Lord at the high place in Gibeon
40 BAWIPA e lukkareiim hmalah, sathei thuengnae meng ka poe hanelah, vaihma Zadok hoi a hmaunawngha vaihma lah a rawi awh.
to present burnt offerings to the Lord on the altar of burnt offerings, morning and evening, according to all that was written in the law of the Lord which he had ordered Israel to follow.
41 Amae pahrennae teh, a yungyoe a kangning dawkvah, BAWIPA koe lunghawi lawk dei hanelah, Heman hoi Jeduthun, hoi alouke taminaw hoi rawi e lah ao awh.
They were accompanied by Heman, Jeduthun, and the rest of those chosen and identified by name to give thanks to the Lord, for “His trustworthy love lasts forever.”
42 Heman hoi Jeduthun teh mongka cecak, kacai e phunkuepnaw hoi cungtalah tumkhawng hane ka khenyawn hanelah ao awh.
Heman and Jeduthun used their trumpets and cymbals to make music to accompany the songs of God. The sons of Jeduthun guarded the gate.
43 Hahoi tami pueng teh ama im lengkaleng a ban awh teh, Devit hai a imthungkhunaw yawhawi poe hanelah a ban van.
Then all the people went home, and David went to bless his family.
