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.
“For the leader of the music. A psalm of David.” I cry to thee, O LORD! make haste unto me! Give ear to my voice, when I cry 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 come before thee as incense, And 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 LORD! before my mouth; Guard 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.
Let not my heart incline to any evil thing; Let me not practise wickedness with the doers of iniquity, And let me not eat of their delicacies!
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; Let him reprove me, and it shall be oil for my head; Let him do it again, and my head shall not refuse it; But now I pray against their wickedness!
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.
When their judges are hurled over the side of the rock, They shall hear how pleasant are my words.
7 Talai tai e laitueng pâpâwn e patetlah, kaie ka hrunaw teh phuen longkha koe a kâyat. (Sheol h7585)
So are our bones scattered at the mouth of the underworld, As when one furroweth and ploweth up the land. (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.
But to thee do my eyes look, O Lord Jehovah! In thee is my trust; Let not my life be poured out!
9 Ahnimouh ni kai hanelah sut patûng e tangkam dawk hoi thoseh, payonnae kasaknaw e karap dawk hoi thoseh, kai hah na khoum haw.
Preserve me from the snares which they have laid for me, And from the nets of evil-doers!
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 together into their own traps, Whilst I make my escape!
