< Sam 97 >
1 Kasakkung: panuekhoeh BAWIPA ni a uk, talai lunghawi seh. Tuilumnaw hai lunghawi awh naseh.
Yhwh reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof.
2 Tâmai hoi hmonae ni a ramuk teh, lannae hoi kângingnae teh a bawitungkhung a kamtuenae doeh.
Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the foundation of his throne.
3 A hmalah hmai a cei teh, ka kalup e tarannaw teh a kak awh.
A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about.
4 Sumpapalik ni talai a ang sak teh, talai ni a hmu toteh a pâyaw.
His lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled.
5 Monnaw pueng teh BAWIPA hmalah, talai van pueng teh Bawipa hmalah khoilai patetlah koung a kamyawt.
The hills melted like wax at the presence of Yhwh, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
6 Kalvan ni a lannae hah a pâpho teh, tami pueng ni a bawilennae hah a hmu awh.
The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory.
7 Meikaphawk thaw ka tawk e pueng, ayawmyin dawk kakâoupnaw pueng teh, kaya laihoi awm awh naseh, cathutnaw pueng ama teh bawk awh haw.
Confounded be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols: worship him, all ye gods.
8 Bangkongtetpawiteh, Oe BAWIPA nange lawkcengnae dawkvah, Zion a lunghawi teh Judah canunaw hai a konawm awh.
Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced because of thy judgments, O Yhwh.
9 Oe BAWIPA, nang teh talai van pueng hlak a lathueng poung lah na o. Cathut pueng lathueng vah tawm lah na o.
For thou, Yhwh, art high above all the earth: thou art exalted far above all gods.
10 Nangmouh Cathut lungpataw naw, kathoute hah panuet awh nateh, ama ni a tamikathoungnaw e hringnae hah a khetyawt teh, tamikathoutnaw e kut dawk hoi a rungngang.
Ye that love Yhwh, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.
11 Tamikalannaw koe a ang teh lungthin kalannaw koe konawmnae teh ouk a pha.
Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
12 Nangmouh tami kalannaw, BAWIPA koe konawm awh haw. A min kathoung hah pholen awh.
Rejoice in Yhwh, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.
