Sam 41
1 Kathutkung: Devit Tamimathoe hanelah ka pouk pouh e tami teh a yawkahawi e doeh. Runae tueng nah ahni hah BAWIPA ni a hlout sak han.
Unto the end. A Psalm of David himself. Blessed is he who shows understanding toward the needy and the poor. The Lord will deliver him in the evil day.
2 BAWIPA ni a hlout sak vaiteh, a pasai han. A tarannaw koe poe hanlah na pasoung mahoeh.
May the Lord preserve him and give him life, and make him blessed upon the earth. And may he not hand him over to the will of his adversaries.
3 A pataw teh sut a yan navah BAWIPA ni thapoe vaiteh, amae hmalah bout na thaw sak han.
May the Lord bring him help on his bed of sorrow. In his infirmity, you have changed his entire covering.
4 BAWIPA na pahren haw, ka hringnae heh dam sak haw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang taranlahoi ka yon toe telah ka ti.
I said, “O Lord, be merciful to me. Heal my soul, because I have sinned against you.”
5 Ka tarannaw ni nâtuek maw a due vaiteh a min raphoe lah ao han telah, thoenae koelah dueng na dei awh.
My enemies have spoken evils against me. When will he die and his name perish?
6 Na tho sin nahaiyah laithoe duengdoeh a dei awh. A lungthin ni payonnae dueng hah a pâkhueng teh, alawilah a tâco nah tangkuem koe ouk a dei.
And when he came in to see me, he was speaking emptiness. His heart gathered iniquity to itself. He went outside, and he was speaking in the same way.
7 Na kahmuhmanaw pueng ni kai taranlahoi arulawk a kâdei awh teh, kai pataw nahane dueng doeh a kâdei awh.
All my enemies were whispering against me. They were thinking up evils against me.
8 Patawnae kathout ni a man toung dawkvah, atu sut a yan toe, thaw mahoeh toe telah a kâdei awh.
They established an unjust word against me. Will he that sleeps no longer rise again?
9 Ka hui kahawi, ka kâuep e, kaie rawca ka cat e niyah, kai taranlahoi a khokpaimai na tawm sin.
For even the man of my peace, in whom I hoped, who ate my bread, has greatly supplanted me.
10 Hatei, Oe BAWIPA, ahnimouh moi ka pathung thai nahanlah, na pahren nateh, bout na thaw sak haw.
But you, O Lord, have mercy on me, and raise me up again. And I will requite them.
11 Hete kong dawk kai dawk na lunghawi doeh tie ka panue. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ka tarannaw ni na tâ awh hoeh.
By this, I knew that you preferred me: because my adversary will not rejoice over me.
12 Kai teh pouknae kalan ka tawn dawkvah, na tawm nateh na hmalah pou na hrueng haw.
But you have sustained me, because of my innocence, and you have confirmed me in your sight in eternity.
13 Isarel BAWIPA teh, a yungyoe hoi a yungyoe totouh pholen lah awm lawiseh. Amen hoi Amen.
Blessed is the Lord God of Israel, for all generations and even forever. Amen. Amen.
