Sam 19
1 Kathutkung: Devit Kalvannaw ni Cathut bawilennae a pathang awh. Kakaw poung e kalvan ni a kutsak tie a kamnue sak.
For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands.
2 Khosei ni khodai koe lawk a dei teh, karum ni karum koe a cangkhai.
Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge.
3 Lawk dei e, lawk kâpan e ahnimae pahni dawk hoi thai hoeh eiteh,
Without speech or language, without a sound to be heard,
4 ahnimae lawk teh talai van pueng a cei teh, talai poutnae koe totouh a pha. Ahnimouh koevah, kanî hanelah lukkareiim a ta pouh.
their voice has gone out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world. In the heavens He has pitched a tent for the sun.
5 Hahoi, kanî teh, yupaluenkung imrakhan thung hoi ka tâcawt e patetlah ao teh, yawngkâtânae koe a tha kaawm poung e, konawm laihoi ka yawng hane patetlah ao.
Like a bridegroom emerging from his chamber, like a champion rejoicing to run his course,
6 Avang lae kalvan apoutnae koehoi, a tâco teh, avanglae kalvan apoutnae koe totouh, a kâhei dawkvah, a kâannae dawk hoi kahlout e awm hoeh.
it rises at one end of the heavens and runs its circuit to the other; nothing is deprived of its warmth.
7 BAWIPA e kâlawk teh akuep dawkvah, hringnae a roung sak. BAWIPA e lawkpanuesaknae teh a kamceng dawkvah, kamawngrame hah a lung a ang sak.
The Law of the LORD is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of the LORD is trustworthy, making wise the simple.
8 BAWIPA e phunglawk teh a lan teh, lungthin a konawm sak. BAWIPA ni kâpoe e teh a thoung teh, mit a ang sak.
The precepts of the LORD are right, bringing joy to the heart; the commandments of the LORD are radiant, giving light to the eyes.
9 BAWIPA takinae teh a thoung teh, a yungyoe a kangning. BAWIPA lawkcengnae teh a lan teh, katang e lah ao.
The fear of the LORD is pure, enduring forever; the judgments of the LORD are true, being altogether righteous.
10 Sui hlak hai sôlêi e sui hlak hai ngai hanelah ao. Khoitui hoi khoipha hlak hai a radiphnawn.
They are more precious than gold, than much pure gold; they are sweeter than honey, than honey from the comb.
11 Hothloilah, hotnaw hno lahoi na san hah kâhruetcuet na poe teh, hote lawknaw tarawinae tawkphu teh a len poung.
By them indeed Your servant is warned; in keeping them is great reward.
12 Apimaw mae payonnae ka panuek thai. Pâpha e payonnae dawk hoi na thoung sak haw.
Who can discern his own errors? Cleanse me from my hidden faults.
13 Na san heh yonnae ka sak hoeh nahanlah, thama lahoi na kuen nateh, hotnaw teh ka lathueng vah kâ tawn sak hanh.
Keep Your servant also from willful sins; may they not rule over me. Then I will be blameless and cleansed of great transgression.
14 Oe BAWIPA, ka thaonae hoi na ka ratangkung, ka dei e dawk hoi ka pouk e naw heh, na mithmu vah na lung ka youk lah awm seh.
May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in Your sight, O LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer.
