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 end, a Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament proclaims the work of his hands.
2 Khosei ni khodai koe lawk a dei teh, karum ni karum koe a cangkhai.
Day to day utters speech, and night to night proclaims knowledge.
3 Lawk dei e, lawk kâpan e ahnimae pahni dawk hoi thai hoeh eiteh,
There are no speeches or words, in which their voices are not 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 is gone out into all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.
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.
In the sun he has set his tabernacle; and he comes forth as a bridegroom out of his chamber: he will exult as a giant 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.
His going forth is from the extremity of heaven, and his circuit to the [other] end of heaven: and no one shall be hidden from his heat.
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, converting souls: the testimony of the Lord is faithful, instructing babes.
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 ordinances of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the Lord is bright, enlightening 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 for ever and ever: the judgments of the Lord are true, [and] justified altogether.
10 Sui hlak hai sôlêi e sui hlak hai ngai hanelah ao. Khoitui hoi khoipha hlak hai a radiphnawn.
To be desired more than gold, and much precious stone: sweeter also than honey and the honey-comb.
11 Hothloilah, hotnaw hno lahoi na san hah kâhruetcuet na poe teh, hote lawknaw tarawinae tawkphu teh a len poung.
For your servant keeps to them: in the keeping of them [there is] great reward.
12 Apimaw mae payonnae ka panuek thai. Pâpha e payonnae dawk hoi na thoung sak haw.
Who will understand [his] transgressions? purge you me from my secret [sins].
13 Na san heh yonnae ka sak hoeh nahanlah, thama lahoi na kuen nateh, hotnaw teh ka lathueng vah kâ tawn sak hanh.
And spare your servant [the attack] of strangers: if they do not gain the dominion over me, then shall I be blameless, and I shall be clear from great sin.
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.
So shall the sayings of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be pleasing continually before you, O Lord my helper, and my redeemer.
