Sam 139
1 Kathutkung: Devit Oe BAWIPA, nang ni na pâphue teh na panue toe.
For the end, a Psalm of David. O Lord, thou hast proved me, and known me.
2 Kai ka tahungnae, ka thawnae pueng hah na panue. Kaie ka pouknae pueng hai ahlanae koehoi na panue.
Thou knowest my down-sitting and mine up-rising: thou understandest my thoughts long before.
3 Ka ceinae lamthung hai thoseh, ka inae hai thoseh, na pâphue teh, ka coungnae puenghai na panue.
Thou hast traced my path and my bed, and hast foreseen all my ways.
4 Kai ni lawk kam touh boehai ka dei hoeh nakunghai Oe BAWIPA, nang ni koung na panue.
For there is no unrighteous word in my tongue: behold, O Lord, thou hast known all things,
5 Nang ni kai pet na kalup teh, kaie van vah na kut hah na toung toe.
the last and the first: thou hast fashioned me, and laid thine hand upon me.
6 Hot patet e panuenae teh kângairu, arasang, kai ni ka phat thai hoeh.
The knowledge of thee is too wonderful for me; it is very difficult, I cannot [attain] to it.
7 Nange Muitha hoi hlout nahanelah nâmouh ka cei thai han va. Na hmalah hoi ka hlout nahanelah nâmouh ka cei thai han va.
Whither shall I go from thy Spirit? and whither shall I flee from my presence?
8 Kalvan ka luen pawiteh hawvah nang teh na o. Phuen koe yannae ka phai nakunghai hawvah nang teh na o. (Sheol h7585)
If I should go up to heaven, thou art there: if I should go down to hell, thou art present. (Sheol h7585)
9 Amom ratheinaw ka lat niteh, tuipui avanglae rai koe kaawm nakunghai,
If I should spread my wings [to fly] straight forward, and sojourn at the extremity of the sea, [it would be vain],
10 hote hmuen koehai Bawipa e kut ni na thak teh, aranglae kut ni na kuet han.
for even there thy hand would guide me, and thy right hand would hold me.
11 Hmonae ni ka ramuk nakunghai, karum hai kaie tengpam vah angnae lah ao han.
When I said, Surely the darkness will cover me; even the night [was] light in my luxury.
12 Bawipa hmalah hmonae ni banghai ramuk thai mahoeh. Karum teh khodai patetlah a ang. Hmonae hoi angnae teh reikâvan.
For darkness will not be darkness with thee; but night will be light as day: as its darkness, so shall its light [be to thee].
13 Bawipa ni kaie kuen hah a sak teh, anu von thungvah kai hah na ramuk toe.
For thou, O Lord, hast possessed my reins; thou hast helped me from my mother's womb.
14 Kai ni na pholen han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, takikatho lah, kângailah a ru. Ka hringnae ni kacaicalah a panue.
I will give thee thanks; for thou art fearfully wondrous; wondrous are thy works; and my soul knows [it] well.
15 Kai hah arulahoi na sak teh, talai thung vah na pahlawm navah, ka tak teh na hmalah hro lah awm hoeh.
My bones, which thou madest in secret were not hidden from thee, nor my substance, in the lowest parts of the earth.
16 Nange mit niteh, kamnuek hoeh rae ka tak hai na hmu toe. Kai hanelah na hmoun e hninthanaw hnin touh boehai ao hoehnahlan hoiyah nama e cauk dawk ngit na thut e lah ao toe.
Thine eyes saw my unwrought [substance], and all [men] shall be written in thy book; they shall be formed by day, though [there should for a time] be no one among them.
17 Oe Cathut, kai dawkvah nange pouknae teh aphu o poung. Banghloi apap tangngak.
But thy friends, O God, have been greatly honoured by me; their rule has been greatly strengthened.
18 Hote pouknae teh parei han pawiteh, sadi hlak hai apap han doeh. Ka kâhlaw toteh nang hoi pou ka o.
I will number them, and they shall be multiplied beyond the sand; I awake, and am still with thee.
19 Oe Cathut, tamikaponaw hah na thet pawiteh ahawi han doeh. Tami thei hanlah thi ka phuen e naw, kai koehoi tâcawt awh.
Oh that thou wouldest slay the wicked, O God; depart from me, ye men of blood.
20 Ahnimouh teh, ponae lahoi Bawipa tarannae lawk a dei awh. Nange tarannaw ni na min hah ayawmyin lah a hno awh.
For thou wilt say concerning [their] thought, [that] they shall take thy cities in vain.
21 Oe BAWIPA, nang ni na hmuhma e naw hai kai ni hai ka hmuhma nahoehmaw. Nang ka tarannaw hai kai ni ka panuet nahoehmaw.
Have I not hated them, O Lord, that hate thee? and wasted away because of thine enemies?
22 Kai ni ahnimouh hah puenghoi ka hmuhma. Ka taran lah doeh ka pouk.
I have hated them with perfect hatred; they were counted my enemies.
23 Oe Cathut, kai hah na pâphue teh, kaie ka lungthin hah hmawt haw. Kai hah na noumcai nateh ka pouknae pueng panuek haw.
Prove me, O God, and know my heart; examine me, and know my paths;
24 Kai ni lamthung kathout dawk ka dawn ou, ka dawn hoeh ou tie na khen nateh, a yungyoe e lamthung dawk na hrawi haw.
and see if [there is any] way of iniquity in me, and lead me in an everlasting way.
