Psalms 7
1 O Jehovah my God, in thee do I take refuge. Save me from all those who pursue me, and deliver me,
Daid ih Shiggaion laa; Benjamin acaeng Kush ih lokthuihaih to anih mah Angraeng khaeah laa ah sak. Angraeng ka Sithaw, nang khaeah ka buep: kai pacaekthlaek kaminawk boih ban thung hoiah na pahlong ah loe, na loisak ah.
2 lest they tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
To tih ai nahaeloe misa mah kaipui baktiah ka hinghaih to asik pet tih boeh.
3 O Jehovah my God, if I have done this, if there be iniquity in my hands,
Aw Angraeng ka Sithaw, hae hmuen ka sak pongah, ka ban ah zaehaih to oh moeng moe,
4 if I have rewarded evil to him who was at peace with me, (yea, I have delivered him without cause who was my adversary),
kai hoi angdaeh kami khaeah ka sae hmuen to ka sak, ue, takung tidoeh om ai ah, ka misa ih hmuen to ka lomh pae moeng nahaeloe;
5 let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it. Yea, let him tread my life down to the earth, and lay my glory in the dust. (Selah)
ka misa mah ka hinghaih to la nasoe loe, pacaekthlaek nasoe; ue, ka hinghaih long ah atii nasoe loe, kai pakoehhaih to maiphu ah suem nasoe. (Selah)
6 Arise, O Jehovah, in thine anger. Lift up thyself against the rage of my adversaries, and awake for me the justice thou have commanded.
Aw Angraeng, palungphuihaih hoiah angthawk ah loe, ka misanawk palungphuihaih to pakaa ah: kai han angthawk ah loe, na thuih ih lok baktih toengah lok to takroek ah.
7 And let the congregation of the peoples encompass thee about, and return thou on high over them.
Kaminawk loe amkhueng o moe, nang ang ven o; nihcae han hmuensang ah amlaem let ah.
8 Jehovah shall judge the peoples. Judge me, O Jehovah, according to my righteousness, and to my integrity that is in me.
Angraeng mah kaminawk to lokcaek tih: aw Angraeng, ka toenghaih hoi kai thungah kaom akoephaih baktih toengah, nang mah lokcaek ah.
9 O let the wickedness of the wicked man come to an end, but establish thou the righteous man. For the righteous God tries the minds and hearts.
Kami poekhaih khenkung, poeksae kami sethaih to boengsak ah loe, katoeng kami to caksak ah: aw katoeng Sithaw, nang loe palungthin ni na khet.
10 My shield is with God, who saves the upright in heart.
Poek toeng kaminawk pahlongkung Sithaw loe, kang vaenghaih ah oh.
11 God is a righteous judge. Yea, a God who has indignation every day.
Sithaw loe lokcaekkung katoeng ah oh, poeksae kami nuiah loe ni thokkruek palungphuihaih to amtuengsak.
12 If a man does not repent, he will whet his sword. He has bent his bow, and made it ready.
Anih amlaem let ai nahaeloe, angmah ih sumsen to taak tih; angmah ih kalii to takoih ueloe, suem coek tih.
13 He has also prepared for him the instruments of death. He makes his arrows fiery.
Anih hanah duekhaih hmuennawk to paroep pae moe, pacaekthlaek kaminawk kah hanah angmah ih kaliinawk to pathoep coek boeh.
14 Behold the wicked man, he travails with iniquity. Yea, he has conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.
Khenah, anih loe kasae to zokpomh; kasae poekhaih hoiah zokpomh moe, amrohaih to tacawtsak.
15 He has made a pit, and dug it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made.
Anih loe tangqom to takaeh moe, a takaeh ih tangqom thungah krak.
16 His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violence shall come down upon his own scalp.
A poeksethaih to angmah ih lu nuiah krah let ueloe, minawk nganbawh kana paekhaih doeh a lu nuiah krah lat tih.
17 I will give thanks to Jehovah according to his righteousness, and will sing praise to the name of Jehovah Most High.
A toenghaih baktih toengah Angraeng to ka saphaw moe, Sang Koek Angraeng ih ahmin pakoehhaih laa to ka sak han.
