Sam 32
1 Kathutkung: Devit Kâtapoenae ngaithoum lah kaawm e hoi a yonnae ramuk pouh lah kaawm e teh a yawkahawi e doeh.
Of David. A maskil. Happy those whose transgression is pardoned, whose sin is covered.
2 BAWIPA ni yonnae ka tawn hoeh e lah a pouk e hoi, a muitha dawk dumyennae kaawm hoeh e teh, tami a yawkahawi e doeh.
Happy are those, free from falseness of spirit, to whom the Lord reckons no debt of guilt.
3 Yon pâpho laipalah ka o teh, kanîruirui ka cingou navah, ka hrunaw teh koung a hmawn toe.
When I held my peace, my bones wore away with my endless groaning;
4 Bangkongtetpawiteh, kanîruirui nange kut ni ka van vah a ri teh, ka thaonae teh kawmpoi kâan e patetlah rem a phui.
for day and night did your hand lie heavy upon me. The sap of my life was dried up as with fierce summer-heat. (Selah)
5 Ka yonnae hah nang koe ka pâpho. Ka payonnae hai ka ramuk hoeh. BAWIPA koe ka yonnae ka pâpho han ka ti. Hahoi, nang ni, ka yonnae hah na ngaithoum.
I began to acknowledge my sin, not concealing my guilt; and the moment I vowed to confess to the Lord my transgression, then you yourself did pardon the guilt of my sin. (Selah)
6 Bangkongtetpawiteh, hmu thai lah na o navah, Cathutlae tami pueng ni, nang koe ratoum naseh. Tûili ka tho nakunghai, ahnimouh teh phat mahoeh.
For this cause let all who are faithful pray to you in the time of distress; then, when the great waters rush, they will not reach to him.
7 Nang teh kai hanlah, kâhronae hmuen doeh. Runae thung hoi na hlout sak han. Hloutnae la hoi na kalup han. (Selah)
For you are my shelter, you protect me from trouble, and surround me with deliverance. (Selah)
8 Na cei nahane lamthung na patue han. Na cangkhai vaiteh, ka mit hoi khet laihoi na hrawi han.
“With my eye steadfastly upon you, I will instruct and teach you The way you should go.
9 Thaipanueknae ka tawn hoeh e marang hoi la patetlah awm hanh. Hotnaw teh nang koe a hnai awh hoeh dawkvah, pahnimoum hoi sawn lah ao han.
Do not be like the horse or the mule, that have no understanding, but need bridle and halter to curb them, else they will not come near to you.”
10 Tamikathoutnaw teh lungreknae moi a khang awh. Hatei, BAWIPA kâuep e naw teh a pahrennae ni a kalup han.
The godless have many sorrows, but those who trust in the Lord will be compassed about by his kindness.
11 Tami kalannaw, BAWIPA dawk lunghawi awh nateh, lannae dawk konawm awh. Lungthin kalan e tami pueng, lunghawi awh nateh hram awh haw.
Be glad in the Lord, and rejoice, you righteous; and ring out your joy, all you upright in heart.
