Sam 52
1 Kathutkung: Devit Oe athakaawme tami, bangkong ne thoenae hoi na kambawng. Cathut hawinae teh a kangning yungyoe.
To the chief Musician, Maschil, [A Psalm] of David, when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, and said unto him, David is come to the house of Ahimelech. Why boastest thou thyself in mischief, O mighty man? the goodness of God [endureth] continually.
2 Na lai ni rawknae heh a sak teh, sam ngawnae pataca patetlah dumyennae hah na sak.
Thy tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.
3 Hawinae hlak thoenae hah na ngaihnawn teh, lannae hlak hai laithoe dei e hah na ngaihnawn. (Selah)
Thou lovest evil more than good; [and] lying rather than to speak righteousness. (Selah)
4 Nang kadumyenkung lai, pathoenae pueng hah na doun.
Thou lovest all devouring words, O [thou] deceitful tongue.
5 Hot patetlah Cathut ni kho na saknae hmuen koehoi na pâlei han. Kahringnaw onae ram koehoi na phawk vaiteh, na raphoe vaiteh, a yungyoe na kahma han. (Selah)
God shall likewise destroy thee for ever, he shall take thee away, and pluck thee out of [thy] dwelling place, and root thee out of the land of the living. (Selah)
6 Tamikalannaw ni hmawt awh vaiteh a taki awh han.
The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him:
7 Cathut kâuep laipalah, mae tawnta e kâuep niteh, mae hawihoehnae dawk mangkhak kaawm e hei, khenhaw! hei, tet awh vaiteh, a panuikhai awh han.
Lo, [this is] the man [that] made not God his strength; but trusted in the abundance of his riches, [and] strengthened himself in his wickedness.
8 Kai teh Cathut e im dawk olive thing dikhring e patetlah ka o teh, Cathut e a lungmanae teh a yungyoe ka kâuep han.
But I [am] like a green olive tree in the house of God: I trust in the mercy of God for ever and ever.
9 Nang ni na sak dawkvah, a yungyoe na pholen han. Na tami kathoungnaw hmalah na min ka ngaihawi han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hetteh ahawi.
I will praise thee for ever, because thou hast done [it: ] and I will wait on thy name; for [it is] good before thy saints.
