< Sam 22 >

1 Kathutkung: Devit Ka Cathut, ka Cathut, bangkongmaw na cei takhai. Bangkongmaw ka kâhramnae lawk thai laipalah, na kabawp hoeh nahanlah ahlanae koe na o.
For the end, concerning the morning aid, a Psalm of David. O God, my God, attend to me: why have you forsaken me? the account of my transgressions is far from my salvation.
2 Oe Cathut, khodai lah kâhram ei, nang ni na thai pouh hoeh. Karum lahai duem ka onae awm hoeh.
O my God, I will cry to you by day, but you will not hear: and by night, and [it shall] not [be accounted] for folly to me.
3 Hatei, nang teh, na thoung. Isarelnaw ni pholen e lah na o.
But you, the praise of Israel, dwell in a sanctuary.
4 Ka mintoenaw ni na kâuep teh, na rungngang.
Our fathers hoped in you; they hoped, and you did deliver them.
5 Na kaw awh teh, na rungngang. Na kâuep awh teh, yeiraipo boi awh hoeh.
They cried to you, and were saved: they hoped in you, and were not ashamed.
6 Hatei, kai teh tangraet lah doeh ka o. Ayâ ni pathoe e hoi pacekpahlek e lah ka o.
But I am a worm, and not a man; a reproach of men, and scorn of the people.
7 Na ka hmawt e pueng ni na panuikhai, a pahni na ke sin awh. A lû na saling sin awh.
All that saw me mocked me: they spoke with [their] lips, they shook the head, [saying],
8 BAWIPA a kâuep nahoehmaw, ama ni rungngang na haw seh. Ahni dawk a ngainae awm pawiteh, atu roeroe rungngang na haw seh, telah ati awh.
He hoped in the Lord: let him deliver him, let him save him, because he takes pleasure in him.
9 Hatei, nang teh anu von thung hoi na karasatkung doeh. Sanu ka nei lahun nah puennae na takhoe pouh.
For you are he that drew me out of the womb; my hope from my mother's breasts.
10 Pek khe hoi nang dawk hruek e lah ka o. Anu von thung hoi patenghai, nang teh ka Cathut lah yo la na o toe.
I was cast on you from the womb: you are my God from my mother's belly.
11 Kai koehoi ahlanae koe awm hanh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, runae a hnai teh kabawmkung awm hoeh.
Stand not aloof from me; for affliction is near; for there is no helper.
12 Maitotan moikapap ni na kalup. Bashan ram e athakaawme maitotannaw ni na kalup.
Many bullocks have compassed me: fat bulls have beset me round.
13 A pahni na ang sin awh teh, sendek patetlah a cairing awh.
They have opened their mouth against me, as a ravening and roaring lion.
14 Tui patetlah rabawk lah ka o teh, ka hruhrawng pueng teh koung a kâla. Ka lungthin teh khoilai patetlah ka thung vah, a kamyawt toe.
I am poured out like water, and all my bones are loosened: my heart in the midst of my belly is become like melting wax.
15 Ka tharui teh ampaikei patetlah a ke teh, ka lai hai ka dangka dawk a kâbet teh, duenae vaiphu dawk na ceikhai.
My strength is dried up, like a potsherd; and my tongue is glued to my throat; and you have brought me down to the dust of death.
16 Bangkongtetpawiteh, uinaw ni na kalup awh. Tamikathoutnaw ni na kalup awh. Ka kut hoi ka khok pawkkayawng lah a thut awh.
For many dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked doers has beset me round: they pierced my hands and my feet.
17 Ka hru pueng koung ka touk thai. Pout laipalah na khet awh teh, a lungkhuekti awh.
They counted all my bones; and they observed and looked upon me.
18 Ka khohna a kârei awh teh, ka angki hah cungpam a rayu awh.
They parted my garments [among] themselves, and cast lots upon my raiment.
19 Oe BAWIPA na hlat takhai hanh. Oe ka thaonae karanglah na kabawm haw.
But you, O Lord, remove not my help afar off: be ready for mine aid.
20 Senehmaica hoi na rungngang haw, ka hringnae ka sungren e heh uinaw thaonae koehoi na rungngang haw.
Deliver my soul from the sword; my only-begotten one from the power of the dog.
21 Sendek kâko dawk hoi na rungngang nateh, savi ki dawk hoi na rungngang haw. Na pato leih.
Save me from the lion's mouth; and [regard] my lowliness from the horns of the unicorns.
22 Ka hmaunawnghanaw koe na min ka pâpho vaiteh, kamkhuengnaw koe na pholen han.
I will declare your name to my brethren: in the midst of the church will I sing praise to you.
23 Nangmouh BAWIPA kataketnaw, ama teh pholen awh. Jakop catounnaw pueng ama teh tawmrasang awh nateh, Isarel catounnaw pueng ama teh taket awh.
You that fear the Lord, praise him; all you seed of Jacob, glorify him: let all the seed of Israel fear him.
24 Bangkongtetpawiteh, runae ka khang e runae hah, dudam hoeh niteh, ahni koehoi a minhmai hai hrawk hoeh. Hatei, ahni koe a hram toteh a thai.
For he has not despised nor been angry at the supplication of the poor; nor turned away his face from me; but when I cried to him, he heard me.
25 Kalen e kamkhuengnae koe ka pholen e teh nang han doeh. Ama kataketnaw hmalah ka lawkkam hah ka kuep sak han.
My praise is of you in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.
26 Tami ka roedeng ni cat vaiteh a von a paha han. Ama katawngnaw ni BAWIPA teh a pholen han. Na lungthin hah pou kâhlaw seh.
The poor shall eat and be satisfied; and they shall praise the Lord that seek him: their heart shall live for ever.
27 Talai poutnae pueng ni a pâkuem awh teh, BAWIPA koe a kamlang awh vaiteh, miphun pueng ni na bawk awh han.
All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to the Lord: and all the kindred of the nations shall worship before him.
28 Bangkongtetpawiteh, uknaeram teh BAWIPA e doeh. Miphunnaw hah a uk.
For the kingdom is the Lord's; and he is the governor of the nations.
29 Talaivan katawntanaw pueng ni cat awh vaiteh a bawk awh han. Ma e hringnae ring thai awh hoeh. Vaiphu lah ka ban e pueng a hmalah a tabo awh han.
All the fat ones of the earth have eaten and worshipped: all that go down to the earth shall fall down before him: my soul also lives to him.
30 Ahnimae catounnaw ni hai a bawk awh vaiteh, catounnaw ni hai BAWIPA e kamthang hah a dei awh han.
And my seed shall serve him: the generation that is coming shall be reported to the Lord.
31 A lannae, pâpho hanelah a tho awh vaiteh, khe lah kaawm hane naw koe BAWIPA ni hetheh a sak telah a pâpho awh han.
And they shall report his righteousness to the people that shall be born, whom the Lord has made.
