Sam 141
1 Kathutkung: Devit Oe BAWIPA, nang teh, kai ni na kaw. Karanglah kai koe tho haw. Kai ni nang na kaw nah kaie ka lawk hah na thai pouh haw.
A Psalm of David. Jehovah, I have called upon thee; make haste unto me: Give ear unto my voice, when I call unto thee.
2 Kaie ratoumnae teh na hmalah hmuitui hmaisawi e patetlah thoseh, ka kut ka dâw e teh kanî a khup nah thueng e patetlah thoseh, pouk e lah awm lawiseh.
Let my prayer be set forth as incense before thee; The lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.
3 Oe BAWIPA, ka pahni karingkung na tat pouh haw. Ka pahni takhang hai ring haw.
Set a watch, O Jehovah, before my mouth; Keep the door of my lips.
4 Payonnae ka sak e taminaw hoi hawihoehnae sak nahanelah, ka lungthin heh hawihoehnae koe lah na kangvawi sak hanh. Ahnimae canei kawi hai na catnet sak hanh.
Incline not my heart to any evil thing, To practise deeds of wickedness With men that work iniquity: And let me not eat of their dainties.
5 Tami kalan ni kai na hem naseh. Hot hateh pahrenlungmanae lah ao. Kai hah na yue naseh. Hot hateh, lû dawk satui awi e lah ao. Ka lû ni hot hateh mat hanh naseh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kaie ratoumnae niteh, hawihoehnae ka sak e naw hah pou a taran han.
Let the righteous smite me, [it shall be] a kindness; And let him reprove me, [it shall be as] oil upon the head; Let not my head refuse it: For even in their wickedness shall my prayer continue.
6 Ahnimouh ka ukkungnaw teh pango dawk tanawt lah ao awh han. Hat toteh, kaie lawknaw teh ngai ao tie hah na panue awh han.
Their judges are thrown down by the sides of the rock; And they shall hear my words; for they are sweet.
7 Talai tai e laitueng pâpâwn e patetlah, kaie ka hrunaw teh phuen longkha koe a kâyat. (Sheol h7585)
As when one ploweth and cleaveth the earth, Our bones are scattered at the mouth of Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
8 Hatei, Oe Bawipa Jehovah, kai teh, nang doeh na khet toe. Nang doeh na kângue toe. Ka hringnae hah kângue han kaawm hoeh lah awm sak hanh.
For mine eyes are unto thee, O Jehovah the Lord: In thee do I take refuge; leave not my soul destitute.
9 Ahnimouh ni kai hanelah sut patûng e tangkam dawk hoi thoseh, payonnae kasaknaw e karap dawk hoi thoseh, kai hah na khoum haw.
Keep me from the snare which they have laid for me, And from the gins of the workers of iniquity.
10 Kai ni hote tangkamnaw ka tapoung toteh, tamikathoutnaw teh amamouh ni a patûng awh e tangkam dawk reirei bawt awh naseh.
Let the wicked fall into their own nets, Whilst that I withal escape.
