Sam 7
1 Kathutkung: Devit, Devit teh Benjamin tami Kush e lawk kecu dawk BAWIPA hmalah a sak e la Oe BAWIPA, ka Cathut, nang teh na kâuep. Na ka pacekpahlek e pueng koehoi na rungngang nateh na hlout sak haw.
[A meditation by David, which he sang to YHWH, concerning the words of Cush, the Benjamite.] YHWH, my God, I take refuge in you. Save me from all those who pursue me, and deliver me,
2 Hoehpawiteh, sendek patetlah na kei vaiteh, rungngangkung ao hoehnahlan vah, na paset awh han doeh.
lest they tear apart my soul like a lion, ripping it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
3 Oe BAWIPA ka Cathut, kai ni hottelah ka sak vaiteh, ka kut dawk payonnae kaawm nakunghai,
YHWH, my God, if I have done this, if there is iniquity in my hands,
4 Kai koe duem kaawm e hah thoenae hoi ka patho teh, ka tarannaw hah a khuekhaw awm laipalah ka coungroe pawiteh,
if I have rewarded evil to him who was at peace with me, or oppressed my enemy without cause,
5 taran ni na pâlei naseh, na phat naseh. Kahringnae hah talai dawk repcoungroe awh naseh. Minhmai barinae hah vaiphu dawk tat awh naseh. (Selah)
let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it; yes, let him tread my life down to the earth, and lay my glory in the dust. (Selah)
6 Oe BAWIPA, lungkhuek laihoi thaw haw, ka tarannaw e lungkhueknae hah ngang haw. Kâ na poe tangcoung patetlah kai han lawkceng hanlah thaw haw.
Arise, YHWH, in your anger. Lift up yourself against the rage of my adversaries. Awake, my God; you have appointed judgment.
7 Miphunnaw kamkhueng awh vaiteh, nang hah na kalup awh han. Ahnimouh hanlah arasangnae koe ban haw.
And let the congregation of the peoples surround you, and rule over them on high.
8 BAWIPA ni lawk a ceng han. Oe BAWIPA, ka lannae hoi ka thung kaawm e yuemkamcu lah ka o e patetlah lawk na ceng haw.
YHWH administers judgment to the peoples. Judge me, YHWH, according to my righteousness, and to my integrity that is in me.
9 Oe tamikathoutnaw, thoenae teh poutsak lah awm lawiseh. Hatei, lannae teh caksak lah awm seh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ka lan e Cathut ni lungthin hoi pouknae hah ouk a tanouk.
Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end, but establish the righteous. The righteous God tests hearts and minds.
10 Lungthin kalannaw rungngangkung Cathut teh kai kânguenae lah ao.
My shield is with God, who saves the upright in heart.
11 Cathut teh kalan e lawkcengkung lah ao teh, Cathut teh tamikathoutnaw koe hnintangkuem a lungkhuek.
God is a righteous judge, yes, a God who has indignation every day.
12 Pankângai hoehpawiteh, a tahloi hah kata vaiteh, licung hah sawn vaiteh, coungkacoe lah ao han.
If a man doesn't relent, he will sharpen his sword; he has bent and strung his bow.
13 Duenae senehmaica hai ahni hanlah a rakueng teh, hmai kang thai e samtang hah a sak awh.
He has also prepared for himself deadly weapons. He makes ready his flaming arrows.
14 Tamikathout ni yonnae hah a khe. Runae hah a vawn teh laithoe ouk a khe.
Look, he travails with iniquity. Yes, he has conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.
15 Tangkom kadungpoung lah a tai teh, a tai e tangkom dawk ama letlang a bo.
He has dug a hole, and has fallen into the pit which he made.
16 A sak e runae hah amae lû van bout ban vaiteh, a tâcosak e thoenae teh amae lû van bout a pha han.
The trouble he causes shall return to his own head, and his violence shall come down on the crown of his own head.
17 BAWIPA teh a lan e patetlah ka pholen han. Lathueng Poung BAWIPA min pholen hoi la ka sak han.
I will give thanks to YHWH according to his righteousness, and will sing praise to the name of YHWH Most High.
