< Sam 70 >
1 Kathutkung: Devit Oe Cathut, kai rungngang hanlah karanglah kâroe haw. Kai kabawp hanlah karanglah kâroe haw.
For the end, by David for a remembrance, that the Lord may save me. Draw near, O God, to my help.
2 Kai thei hanlah kakâcainaw teh kayayeirai po laihoi awm awh naseh, runae poe hanlah kakâcainaw heh yawng awh naseh.
Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek my soul: let them be turned backward and put to shame, that wish me evil.
3 Vehveh, na katetsinnaw teh kaya laihoi yawng awh naseh.
Let them that say to me, Aha, aha, be turned back and put to shame immediately.
4 Nang na ka tawng pueng teh, nang dawk lunghawi thahmeica lah awm awh naseh. Na rungngangnae ka lungpataw naw ni pout laipalah, Cathut teh pholen lah awm seh, telah tet awh naseh.
Let all that seek you exult and be glad in you: and let those that love your salvation say continually, Let God be magnified.
5 Hatei, kai teh tami ka mathoe hoi ka voutthoup e lah ka o. Oe, Cathut, karang na pâtam leih. Nang teh ka rungngangkung hoi kabawmkung doeh. Oe BAWIPA ngailawi awm hanh leih.
But I am poor and needy; O God, help me: you are my helper and deliverer, O Lord, delay not.
