Sam 61

1 Kathutkung: Devit, La kahrawikung hanlah, rui thueng e tumkhawng hoi ni sak e la Oe Cathut, ka hramnae lawk heh na thai pouh haw. Ka ratoumnae heh na thai pouh haw.

Unto the end. With hymns, of David. O God, pay attention to my supplication. Be attentive to my prayer.

2 Ka lung tha a tawn teh, talai poutnae koehoi nang koe ka hram. Kai hlak ka rasang e lungsong koe na hrawi haw.

I cried out to you from the ends of the earth. When my heart was in anguish, you exalted me on a rock. You have led me,

3 Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang teh kai hanlah kânguenae lah na o teh, tarannaw hmalah kacakpounge imrasang lah na o.

for you have been my hope, a tower of strength before the face of the enemy.

4 Na rim dawk pou ka o han. Na rathei hoi na ramuknae koe ka kângue han.

I will dwell in your tabernacle forever. I will be protected under the cover of your wings.

5 Bangkongtetpawiteh Oe Cathut, ka lawkkam hah na thai pouh haw. Na min kabarinaw e râw hah kai na poe.

For you, my God, have listened to my prayer. You have granted an inheritance to those who fear your name.

6 Siangpahrang, hringyung na saw sak teh, a kum hai se moikasaw kangning naseh.

You will add days to the days of the king, to his years, even to the time of generation after generation.

7 Cathut hmalah a yungyoe a kangning han. Oe ahni roum sak nahanlah, lungmanae hoi lawkkatang hah rakueng pouh haw.

He remains in eternity, in the sight of God. Who will long for his mercy and truth?

8 Ka lawkkam hah hnintangkuem ka kuep sak nahan a yungyoe a min pholen hoi la ka sak han.

So I will compose a psalm to your name, forever and ever, so that I may repay my vows from day to day.
