Sam 54

1 Kathutkung: Devit Oe Cathut, na min lahoi na rungngang haw. Na thaonae hoi lawk na ceng pouh haw.

To him that excelleth on Neginoth. A Psalme of David, to give instruction. When the Ziphims came and said unto Saul, Is not David hid among us? Save mee, O God, by thy Name, and by thy power iudge me.

2 Oe Cathut, ka ratoum e heh thai haw. Ka dei e lawk heh na thai pouh haw.

O God, heare my prayer: hearken vnto the wordes of my mouth.

3 Bangkongtetpawiteh, ramlouknaw ni kai taranlahoi a thaw awh teh, rep kacuengroenaw ni thei hanlah a kâcai awh. Cathut minhmai khoeroe khen awh hoeh. (Selah)

For strangers are risen vp against me, and tyrants seeke my soule: they haue not set God before them. (Selah)

4 Khenhaw! Cathut teh na kabawmkung doeh. BAWIPA teh ka hringnae karingkungnaw koe ao.

Beholde, God is mine helper: the Lord is with them that vpholde my soule.

5 A tawksak awh e thoenae hah ama ni a patho han. Ahnimouh teh na lawkkatang hoi raphoe haw.

He shall rewarde euill vnto mine enemies: Oh cut them off in thy trueth!

6 Kai hai lungthocalah hoi nang koe thuengnae ka sak han. Oe BAWIPA, na min teh ka pholen han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang teh na hawi.

Then I will sacrifice freely vnto thee: I wil praise thy Name, O Lord, because it is good.

7 Kai hah runae phunkuep thung hoi na hlout sak teh, ka tarannaw koe ka phat e hah ka mit ni khei a hmu toe.

For he hath deliuered me out of al trouble, and mine eye hath seene my desire vpon mine enemies.
