Sam 70

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

“For the leader of the music. A psalm of David, for remembrance.” Make haste, O God! to deliver me, O LORD! come speedily to mine aid!

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

May they all be confounded, and covered with shame, Who seek to take my life! May they be driven back with disgrace Who desire to do me injury!

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

May they be turned back with shame Who cry out to me, “Aha! aha!”

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.

But let all who seek thee be glad and rejoice in thee! Let them that love thy protection ever say, “May God be praised!”

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! hasten to mine aid! Thou art my help and my deliverer, O LORD! make no delay!
