Psalms 58
1 Do ye indeed speak righteousness in silence? Do ye judge uprightly, O ye sons of men?
Katoeng kruek zaehoikung hanah. David ih miktam. Anih ih bungmu to paro hmah. Aw kaminawk, na thuih o ih loknawk loe toeng tangtang hmang maw? Aw kaminawk, katoeng ah lok na caek o hmang maw?
2 No! In heart ye work wickedness. Ye weigh out the violence of your hands in the earth.
Tangtang ni, palung thung hoiah kasae na poek o, na bannawk mah long nuiah athii to palong o.
3 The wicked are estranged from the womb. They go astray as soon as they are born, speaking lies.
Kasae kaminawk loe zok thung hoiah ni a set o roe boeh; tapen tangsuek nathuem hoiah loklam amkhraeng o boeh moe, lok amlai o boeh.
4 Their poison is like the poison of a serpent, like the deaf adder that stops her ear,
Nihcae ih kasoe loe pahui kasoe baktiah oh moe, naa pang pahui sae baktiah a oh o;
5 which hearkens not to the voice of charmers, charming ever so wisely.
kawkruk ah thoemhaih hoiah thuih pae khing cadoeh, thuikungnawk ih lok to tahngai mak ai.
6 Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth. Break out the great teeth of the young lions, O Jehovah.
Aw Sithaw, nihcae pakha thung ih haanawk to khaek pae ah; Aw Angraeng, saning nawk kaipui ih anonawk to khaek pae ah.
7 Let them melt away as water that runs with haste. When he aims his arrows, let them be as though they were cut off,
Nihcae loe kalong tui baktiah kang o boih nasoe; kalii anueng moe, kah o naah, palaanawk to angkhaek pae boih nasoe.
8 as a snail which melts and passes away, as the untimely birth of a woman, that has not seen the sun.
Nihcae loe longnat mah caeh naah atui amkaw noehnoeh baktih, atue pha ai ah tapen nongpata mah ni aengh hnu ai baktih toengah, dueh o boih nasoe.
9 Before your pots can feel the thorns, he will take them away with a whirlwind, the green and the burning alike.
Nang ih laomnawk mah soekhring thing hoi tik ih hmai kabae panoek ai naah, kahing soekhring kung hoi hmai kangqong soekhring kung to, kamhae takhi mah hmut phaeng nasoe.
10 A righteous man shall rejoice when he sees the vengeance. He shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked,
Kami katoeng loe lulakhaih hnuk naah anghoe tih; anih loe kasae kaminawk ih athii hoiah a khok to pasae tih.
11 so that men shall say, Truly there is a reward for the righteous man. Truly there is a God who judges in the earth.
To naah kaminawk mah, katoeng kaminawk hanah tangqum loe oh tangtang; anih loe long lokcaekkung Sithaw tangtang ni, tiah thui o tih.
