Sam 45
1 Kathutkung: Korah capanaw Ka lungthin heh hnokahawi hoi a poum teh, Siangpahrang kong hah ka dei han. Ka lai teh ca kathutkung e cacung patetlah coungkacoe ao.
For the choirmaster. To the tune of “The Lilies.” A Maskil of the sons of Korah. A love song. My heart is stirred by a noble theme as I recite my verses to the king; my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer.
2 Nang teh tami capanaw hlak na mei ahawihnawn. Na pahni dawk pahrennae awi lah ao. Hatdawkvah, Cathut ni yawhawi pou na poe.
You are the most handsome of men; grace has anointed your lips, since God has blessed you forever.
3 Oe athakaawme, na bawilennae hoi na taluenae hoi, na tahloi teh na keng dawk kâyeng haw.
Strap your sword at your side, O mighty warrior; appear in your majesty and splendor.
4 Lawkkatang hoi kârahnoumnae hoi lannae kecu dawkvah, na taluenae hoi ka tânae lahoi marang dawk kâcui haw. Hottelah, aranglae kut hoi kângairu hnonaw hah na cangkhai han.
In your splendor ride forth in victory on behalf of truth and humility and justice; may your right hand show your awesome deeds.
5 Ka pasum e tahroe hoi siangpahrang e tarannaw e lung teh poukkayawng lah thun naseh. Na lungtabue dawk koung rawm awh naseh.
Your arrows pierce the hearts of the king’s foes; the nations fall beneath your feet.
6 Oe Cathut, na bawitungkhung teh a yungyoe kangning e doeh. Lannae na sonron hai na ram sonron lah doeh ao.
Your throne, O God, endures forever and ever, and justice is the scepter of Your kingdom.
7 Lannae hah lung na pataw teh, thoenae hah na hmuhma. Hatdawkvah, Cathut, na Cathut ni, satui hah na awi toe. Na huinaw hlak hai, konawmnae satui hah na awi toe.
You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has anointed you above your companions with the oil of joy.
8 Na khohna pueng dawk hoi murah hoi aloenaw hoi, khasia hmuitui a hmui teh, kasaino hoi pathoup e siangpahrang imnaw ni na lunghawi sak.
All your garments are fragrant with myrrh and aloes and cassia; from palaces of ivory the harps make you glad.
9 Bari kaawm e napui na tawn e naw thung dawkvah, ramlouk siangpahrangnaw e canunaw hai a bawk teh, nange aranglah Ophir sui hoi kamthoup e siangpahrangnu teh a tahung.
The daughters of kings are among your honored women; the queen stands at your right hand, adorned with the gold of Ophir.
10 Oe, Canu thai haw, pouk nateh na hnâpakengh. Na taminaw hoi na pa im kaawm e naw hai pahnim haw.
Listen, O daughter! Consider and incline your ear: Forget your people and your father’s house,
11 Hottelah pawiteh, siangpahrang ni na meihawinae hah a ngai katang han, ahni teh na bawipa doeh, bari haw.
and the king will desire your beauty; bow to him, for he is your lord.
12 Taire canu ni poehno sin vaiteh, tamimaya thung dawk hoi na tawnta e ni na minhmai hawi a tawng awh han.
The Daughter of Tyre will come with a gift; men of wealth will seek your favor.
13 Siangpahrang im e siangpahrang canu teh, a sungrenpoung teh, a khohna teh sui hoi pathoup e lah ao.
All glorious is the princess in her chamber; her gown is embroidered with gold.
14 Pathoup e hni kahawi kâkhu hoi siangpahrang koe cetkhai awh vaiteh, tanglakacuemnaw ama hnukkâbang hane naw hah ahni koe a thokhai awh han.
In colorful garments she is led to the king; her virgin companions are brought before you.
15 Lunghawi thahmeica lahoi thokhai awh vaiteh, siangpahrang im a kâen awh han.
They are led in with joy and gladness; they enter the palace of the king.
16 Napanaw yueng lah na canaw awm awh vaiteh, ahnimouh teh talai van pueng dawk siangpahrang lah na o sak han.
Your sons will succeed your fathers; you will make them princes throughout the land.
