< 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.
To the Overseer. — A Psalm of David. O the happiness of him Who is acting wisely unto the poor, In a day of evil doth Jehovah deliver him.
2 BAWIPA ni a hlout sak vaiteh, a pasai han. A tarannaw koe poe hanlah na pasoung mahoeh.
Jehovah doth preserve him and revive him, He is happy in the land, And Thou givest him not into the will of his enemies.
3 A pataw teh sut a yan navah BAWIPA ni thapoe vaiteh, amae hmalah bout na thaw sak han.
Jehovah supporteth on a couch of sickness, All his bed Thou hast turned in his weakness.
4 BAWIPA na pahren haw, ka hringnae heh dam sak haw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang taranlahoi ka yon toe telah ka ti.
I — I said, 'O Jehovah, favour me, Heal my soul, for I did sin against Thee,'
5 Ka tarannaw ni nâtuek maw a due vaiteh a min raphoe lah ao han telah, thoenae koelah dueng na dei awh.
Mine enemies say evil of me: When he dieth — his name hath perished!
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 if he came to see — vanity he speaketh, His heart gathereth iniquity to itself, He goeth out — at the street he speaketh.
7 Na kahmuhmanaw pueng ni kai taranlahoi arulawk a kâdei awh teh, kai pataw nahane dueng doeh a kâdei awh.
All hating me whisper together against me, Against me they devise evil to me:
8 Patawnae kathout ni a man toung dawkvah, atu sut a yan toe, thaw mahoeh toe telah a kâdei awh.
A thing of Belial is poured out on him, And because he lay down he riseth not again.
9 Ka hui kahawi, ka kâuep e, kaie rawca ka cat e niyah, kai taranlahoi a khokpaimai na tawm sin.
Even mine ally, in whom I trusted, One eating my bread, made great the heel against me,
10 Hatei, Oe BAWIPA, ahnimouh moi ka pathung thai nahanlah, na pahren nateh, bout na thaw sak haw.
And Thou, Jehovah, favour me, And cause me to rise, And I give recompence to them.
11 Hete kong dawk kai dawk na lunghawi doeh tie ka panue. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ka tarannaw ni na tâ awh hoeh.
By this I have known, That Thou hast delighted in me, Because my enemy shouteth not over me.
12 Kai teh pouknae kalan ka tawn dawkvah, na tawm nateh na hmalah pou na hrueng haw.
As to me, in mine integrity, Thou hast taken hold upon me, And causest me to stand before Thee to the age.
13 Isarel BAWIPA teh, a yungyoe hoi a yungyoe totouh pholen lah awm lawiseh. Amen hoi Amen.
Blessed [is] Jehovah, God of Israel, From the age — and unto the age. Amen and Amen.
