1 Kathutkung: Panuekhoeh Oe BAWIPA, Devit hai thoseh, a khang e rektapnae hai thoseh,
A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. Remember, YHWH, for David, all his afflictions;
2 BAWIPA koe bangtelane thoe a kâbo tie hai thoseh, Jakop miphun e athakaawme Bawipa koe bangtelamaw lawk a kam tie hai thoseh, pouk haw.
Who has sworn to YHWH, He has vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:
3 Ahni ni BAWIPA onae, Jakop miphun e Athakasaipounge a onae hmuen ka hmu hoehroukrak,
“If I enter into the tent of my house, If I go up on the couch of my bed,
4 kama im ka ban mahoeh, ka ikhun dawk ka luen mahoeh,
If I give sleep to my eyes, To my eyelids—slumber,
5 ka ip mahoeh, ka mit ka pakhap mahoeh telah lawk a kam.
Until I find a place for YHWH, dwelling places for the Mighty One of Jacob.”
6 Khenhaw! Ephrath vah, ka thai a teh, ratu thung vah ka hmu awh.
Behold, we have heard it in Ephratah, We have found it in the fields of the forest.
7 Ama onae koe cet awh sei. Ama khok toungnae hmalah tabawk awh sei.
We come into His dwelling places, We bow ourselves at His footstool.
8 Oe BAWIPA nama e thaonae thingkong hoi cungtalah, nama e roumnae koe luen haw.
Arise, O YHWH, to Your rest, You, and the Ark of Your strength,
9 Nange vaihmanaw teh lannae hah khohnat awh naseh. Nange tami kathoungnaw ni hai lunghawicalah la sak awh naseh.
Your priests put on righteousness, And Your pious ones cry aloud.
10 Na san Devit minhmai khet lahoi satui na awi e hah pahnawt hanh loe.
For the sake of Your servant David, Do not turn back the face of Your anointed.
11 BAWIPA ni Devit koe thoe a bo teh bout raphoe hoeh hane lawk teh: na catoun hah na bawitungkhung dawk ka tahung sak han.
YHWH has sworn truth to David, He does not turn back from it: “Of the fruit of your body, I set on the throne for you.
12 Na capanaw ni kaie lawkkam hoi kaie lawkpanuesaknae hah tarawi awh pawiteh, ahnimae capanaw hai nange bawitungkhung dawk pou a tahung awh han tie hah doeh.
If your sons keep My covenant, And My testimonies that I teach them, Their sons also forever and ever Sit on the throne for you.”
13 Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni Zion hah a rawi teh, hawvah o nahane hmuen lah ta hane a ngai dawkvah,
For YHWH has fixed on Zion, He has desired [it] for a seat to Himself,
14 hote hmuen teh a yungyoe kaie roumnae hmuen lah ao. Hote hmuen hah ka ngai dawkvah, hawvah ka o han.
“This [is] My rest forever and ever, Here I sit, for I have desired it.
15 Hote hmuen koe rawca yawhawi ka poe han. Hote hmuen koe mathoenaw hai rawca ka boum sak han.
I greatly bless her provision, I satisfy her poor [with] bread,
16 Hote hmuen koe e vaihmanaw heh rungngangnae hoi ka ramuk vaiteh, tami kathoungnaw ni lunghawi laihoi la a sak awh han.
And I clothe her priests [with] salvation, And her pious ones sing aloud.
17 Hawvah, Devit e ki hah ka cawn sak han. Satui ka awi e tami hanelah, hmaiim sut ka hruek pouh.
There I cause a horn to spring up for David, I have arranged a lamp for My Anointed.
18 Kai ni ahnie tarannaw hah kayayeirai hoi ka ramuk pouh han. Ahni koe teh, amae lentoenae lukhung kamhlawng sak han telah a ti.
I clothe His enemies [with] shame, And His crown flourishes on Him!”
