Sam 10
1 Kathutkung: Panuekhoeh Oe BAWIPA, bangkongmaw ahlanae koe na kangdue. Bangkongmaw runae tueng nah na kâhro.
Why, O LORD, do You stand far off? Why do You hide in times of trouble?
2 Tamikathoutnaw ni kâoupnae lahoi tami karoedengnaw hah a rektap awh. A sak awh e ni amamouh letlang man naseh.
In pride the wicked pursue the needy; let them be caught in the schemes they devise.
3 Tamikathoutnaw teh amamae lungngainae dawk ouk a kâoup awh. Kahounlounnaw ni BAWIPA a hnoun awh teh, a dudam awh.
For the wicked man boasts in the cravings of his heart; he blesses the greedy and reviles the LORD.
4 Tamikathoutnaw ni kâoupnae lahoi Cathut tawng ngai awh hoeh. A pouknae dawkvah, Cathut awm hoeh ati awh.
In his pride the wicked man does not seek Him; in all his schemes there is no God.
5 Lawkcengnae teh ahni hoi ahla arasang dawkvah, a tarannaw pueng hah a dudam.
He is secure in his ways at all times; Your lofty judgments are far from him; he sneers at all his foes.
6 A lungthung hoi, kâhuen mahoeh, nâtuek hai runae kâhmo mahoeh telah a pouk.
He says to himself, “I will not be moved; from age to age I am free of distress.”
7 A pahni teh thoebonae, dumnae hoi repcoungroenae lawk hoi akawi. A lai rahim vah runae hoi payonnae teh ao.
His mouth is full of cursing, deceit, and violence; trouble and malice are under his tongue.
8 Kho tangkuem lampawp koe a tahung teh, tami ni hmuhoehnae koe yonnae ka tawn hoeh e naw hah a thei awh. Tami ka roedeng e hah arulahoi a pawp awh.
He lies in wait near the villages; in ambush he slays the innocent; his eyes watch in stealth for the helpless.
9 Sendek ni a kâkhu dawk hoi a pawp e patetlah arulahoi tami ouk a pawp. Tami ka roedeng hah man hanlah a pawp. A tamlawk hoi a sawn toteh tami ka roedeng a kâman.
He lies in wait like a lion in a thicket; he lurks to seize the oppressed; he catches the lowly in his net.
10 Hottelah, karoedengnaw hah a thaonae lahoi rawp sak nahanlah, ka rahnoumca lah a tabo awh.
They are crushed and beaten down; the hapless fall prey to his strength.
11 A lungthung hoi, Cathut ni a pahnim toe. A minhmai hai a hro toe. Nâtuek hai hmawt mahoeh toe telah a pouk.
He says to himself, “God has forgotten; He hides His face and never sees.”
12 Oe BAWIPA, thaw haw. Oe Cathut, na kut dâw haw. Kârahnoumnaw hah pahnim hanh.
Arise, O LORD! Lift up Your hand, O God! Do not forget the helpless.
13 Bangkongmaw tamikathoutnaw ni Cathut banglahai a noutna awh hoeh. A lungthung hoi, banglah pouk mahoeh ouk ati awh.
Why has the wicked man renounced God? He says to himself, “You will never call me to account.”
14 Hateiteh, lungreithai hoi runae teh na pakhingpalang teh, na kut hoi moipathung hanlah na hmu toe. Karoedengnaw, teh nang koe a kâhnawng awh teh, nang teh, na pa ka tawn hoeh naw kabawmkung lah na o.
But You have regarded trouble and grief; You see to repay it by Your hand. The victim entrusts himself to You; You are the helper of the fatherless.
15 Tamikathoutnaw hoi tamikayonnaw e kut hah khoe pouh nateh, ceitakhai e awm laipalah, hawihoehnae pueng koung pâphue pouh haw.
Break the arm of the wicked and evildoer; call him to account for his wickedness until none is left to be found.
16 BAWIPA teh a yungyoe hoi a yungyoe totouh siangpahrang doeh. A ram thung hoi miphunnaw koung a kahma awh.
The LORD is King forever and ever; the nations perish from His land.
17 Repcoungroe e hoi na pa ka tawn hoeh naw koevah, kângingnae sak hanelah, talai taminaw ni repcoungroe hoeh nahanelah,
You have heard, O LORD, the desire of the humble; You will strengthen their hearts. You will incline Your ear,
18 BAWIPA, kârahnoumnaw e ngainae teh na panue teh, ahnimouh lawkceng hanelah na hnâ teh na pakeng pouh.
to vindicate the fatherless and oppressed, that the men of the earth may strike terror no more.
