Sam 139
1 Kathutkung: Devit Oe BAWIPA, nang ni na pâphue teh na panue toe.
Unto the end. A Psalm of David. O Lord, you have examined me, and you have known me.
2 Kai ka tahungnae, ka thawnae pueng hah na panue. Kaie ka pouknae pueng hai ahlanae koehoi na panue.
You have known my sitting down and my rising up again.
3 Ka ceinae lamthung hai thoseh, ka inae hai thoseh, na pâphue teh, ka coungnae puenghai na panue.
You have understood my thoughts from afar. My path and my fate, you have investigated.
4 Kai ni lawk kam touh boehai ka dei hoeh nakunghai Oe BAWIPA, nang ni koung na panue.
And you have foreseen all my ways. For there is no word in my tongue.
5 Nang ni kai pet na kalup teh, kaie van vah na kut hah na toung toe.
Behold, O Lord, you have known all things: the newest and the very old. You have formed me, and you have placed your hand over me.
6 Hot patet e panuenae teh kângairu, arasang, kai ni ka phat thai hoeh.
Your knowledge has become a wonder to me. It has been reinforced, and I am not able to prevail against 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.
Where will I go from your Spirit? And where will I flee from your face?
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 ascend into heaven, you are there. If I descend into Hell, you are near. (Sheol h7585)
9 Amom ratheinaw ka lat niteh, tuipui avanglae rai koe kaawm nakunghai,
If I assume my feathers in early morning, and dwell in the utmost parts of the sea,
10 hote hmuen koehai Bawipa e kut ni na thak teh, aranglae kut ni na kuet han.
even there, your hand will lead me forth, and your right hand will hold me.
11 Hmonae ni ka ramuk nakunghai, karum hai kaie tengpam vah angnae lah ao han.
And I said: Perhaps darkness will overwhelm me, and the night will be my illumination, to my delight.
12 Bawipa hmalah hmonae ni banghai ramuk thai mahoeh. Karum teh khodai patetlah a ang. Hmonae hoi angnae teh reikâvan.
But darkness will not be impenetrable to you, and night will illuminate like the day: for just as its darkness is, so also is its light.
13 Bawipa ni kaie kuen hah a sak teh, anu von thungvah kai hah na ramuk toe.
For you have possessed my temperament. You have supported me from the womb of my mother.
14 Kai ni na pholen han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, takikatho lah, kângailah a ru. Ka hringnae ni kacaicalah a panue.
I will confess to you, for you have been magnified terribly. Your works are miraculous, as my soul knows exceedingly well.
15 Kai hah arulahoi na sak teh, talai thung vah na pahlawm navah, ka tak teh na hmalah hro lah awm hoeh.
My bone, which you have made in secret, has not been hidden from you, and my substance is in accord with the lower 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.
Your eyes saw my imperfection, and all this shall be written in your book. Days will be formed, and no one shall be in them.
17 Oe Cathut, kai dawkvah nange pouknae teh aphu o poung. Banghloi apap tangngak.
But to me, O God, your friends have been greatly honored. Their first ruler has been exceedingly 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 will be more numerous than the sand. I rose up, and I am still with you.
19 Oe Cathut, tamikaponaw hah na thet pawiteh ahawi han doeh. Tami thei hanlah thi ka phuen e naw, kai koehoi tâcawt awh.
O God, if only you would cut down sinners. You men of blood: depart from me.
20 Ahnimouh teh, ponae lahoi Bawipa tarannae lawk a dei awh. Nange tarannaw ni na min hah ayawmyin lah a hno awh.
For you say in thought: They will accept your 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 those who hated you, Lord, and wasted away because of your enemies?
22 Kai ni ahnimouh hah puenghoi ka hmuhma. Ka taran lah doeh ka pouk.
I have hated them with a perfect hatred, and they have become enemies to me.
23 Oe Cathut, kai hah na pâphue teh, kaie ka lungthin hah hmawt haw. Kai hah na noumcai nateh ka pouknae pueng panuek haw.
Examine me, O God, and know my heart. Question 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 might be in me the way of iniquity, and lead me in the way of eternity.
