Sam 70

1 Kathutkung: Devit Oe Cathut, kai rungngang hanlah karanglah kâroe haw. Kai kabawp hanlah karanglah kâroe haw.

Unto the end. A Psalm of David, in remembrance that the Lord had saved him. O God, reach out to help me. O Lord, hasten to assist me.

2 Kai thei hanlah kakâcainaw teh kayayeirai po laihoi awm awh naseh, runae poe hanlah kakâcainaw heh yawng awh naseh.

May those who seek my soul be confounded and awed.

3 Vehveh, na katetsinnaw teh kaya laihoi yawng awh naseh.

May those who wish evils upon me be turned back and blush with shame. May they be turned away immediately, blushing with shame, who say to me: “Well, well.”

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 who seek you exult and rejoice in you, and let those who love your salvation forever say: “The Lord 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.

I am truly destitute and poor. O God, assist me. You are my helper and my deliverer. O Lord, do not delay.
