Sam 36

1 Kathutkung: Devit Tamikathoutnaw ni kâtapoenae dawk ka lungthung hoi ka tâcawt e teh, ahnimae mit dawk Cathut takinae banghai awm hoeh.

[For the Chief Musician. By David, the servant of the LORD.] Transgression speaks to the wicked within his heart. There is no fear of God before his eyes.

2 A payonnae hmawt hoeh, panuek hoeh telah, a mithmu vah amahoima tamikalan lah a kâsak awh.

For he flatters himself in his own eyes, too much to detect and hate his sin.

3 A dei e lawk teh, thoenae hoi dumnae dueng doeh. Kahawi hno sak hane hoi lungang hane hah a pahnawt awh.

The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit. He has ceased to be wise and to do good.

4 A ikhun van hawihoehnae hah a pouk teh, kahawihoehe lamthung thama lahoi a dawn teh, yonnae hah panuet hoeh.

He plots iniquity on his bed. He sets himself in a way that is not good. He doesn't abhor evil.

5 Oe BAWIPA na pahrennae teh kalvan ao teh, yuem na kamcunae ni tâmai koe a pha.

Your loving kindness, LORD, is in the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.

6 Na lannae teh kalen e mon patetlah ao teh, na lawkcengnae teh ka dungpoung e tui patetlah ao. Oe BAWIPA, tami hoi saringnaw hah ouk na khetyawt.

Your righteousness is like the mountains of God. Your judgments are like a great deep. LORD, you preserve man and animal.

7 Oe Cathut, na lungpatawnae teh banghloimaw a sungren. Hatdawkvah, tami capanaw ni na tâhlip hah a kâuep awh.

How precious is your loving kindness, God. The descendants of Adam take refuge under the shadow of your wings.

8 Na imthung vah, kapap e hnokahawi hoi na boum sak teh, na konawmnae palangtui na nei sak.

They shall be abundantly satisfied with the abundance of your house. You will make them drink of the river of your pleasures.

9 Nang koe vah hringnae tuikhu teh ao. Na angnae dawkvah, angnae hah ka hmu awh.

For with you is the spring of life. In your light shall we see light.

10 Oe, nang kapanueknaw koe, na lungpatawnae pou awm na seh, lungthin kalannaw koe na lannae kamnuek naseh,

Oh continue your loving kindness to those who know you, your righteousness to the upright in heart.

11 Kâoupnae khok teh kai taranlahoi tho nahanh seh.

Do not let the foot of pride come against me. Do not let the hand of the wicked drive me away.

12 Haw tueng vah, tamitongthoenaw koung a rawp awh toe. Tâkhawng lah ao awh teh, thaw awh mahoeh toe.

There evildoers are fallen. They are thrust down, and shall not be able to rise.
