< Sam 63 >
1 Kathutkung: Devit, Judah kahrawngum ao navah a sak e la Oe Cathut, nang teh ka Cathut doeh. Amom vah na tawng han. Ka hringnae ni nang na kahran. Ka takthai ni nang na rabui. Kenae hoi tui kahrannae, tui ohoehnae ram dawk kaawm e lah ka o.
O God, thou are my God. I will earnestly seek thee. My soul thirsts for thee, my flesh longs for thee, in a dry and weary land, where is no water.
2 Na bawilennae hmu hanlah, hmuen kathoung thung na tawng toe.
So I have looked upon thee in the sanctuary to see thy power and thy glory.
3 Na pahrennae teh hringnae hlak hai a hawihnawn dawkvah, ka pahni hoi ka pholen han.
Because thy loving kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.
4 Hot patetlah ka hringyung thung na pholen han. Na min lahoi ka kut ka dâw han.
So I will bless thee while I live. I will lift up my hands in thy name.
5 Ka hringnae heh rakhing hoi a thaw kaboum lah ca e patetlah a lungkuep han. Hateh, konawm pahni hoi na pholen han.
My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness. And my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips
6 Ka ikhun dawk hoi ka pouk navah, karumsaning totouh ouk ka pouk.
when I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night-watches.
7 Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang teh na kabawmkung doeh. Hatdawkvah, na rathei rahim vah ka konawm han.
For thou have been my help, and in the shadow of thy wings I will rejoice.
8 Ka hringnae ni kahnaicalah na hruiyun teh, nama e aranglae kut hoi na kuet.
My soul follows close after thee. Thy right hand upholds me.
9 Hatei, ka hringnae thei hanlah katawngnaw teh, adungpoungnae koe talai thung vah a cei awh han.
But those who seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
10 Tahloi hoi dout awh vaiteh, Asuinaw ni ca hanelah, ao han.
They shall be given over to the power of the sword. They shall be a portion for foxes.
11 Hatei, siangpahrang teh Cathut dawk konawm vaiteh, Cathut noe laihoi thoekâbo e pueng ni, a pholen awh han. Hatei laithoe kadeinaw e pahninaw teh, tabuem lah ao awh han.
But the king shall rejoice in God. Everyone who swears by him shall glory, for the mouth of those who speak lies shall be stopped.
