Psalms 28
1 [A Psalm] of David. Unto thee, O Jehovah, will I call: My rock, be not thou deaf unto me; Lest, if thou be silent unto me, I become like them that go down into the pit.
Kathutkung: Devit Oe BAWIPA nang teh na kaw. Ka lungsong, lawkkamuem na awm mahoeh. Nang ni banglahai na ngaihoeh lah, lawkkamuem na awm pawiteh, kai teh tangkom dawk ka bawt e patetlah doeh ka o toe.
2 Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, When I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle.
Bawipa nang koe ka hramki laihoi kabawpnae ka hei nahai thoseh, Bawipa nange hmuenkathoung, a thung lah ka kut ka dâw to hai thoseh, kai ni ka hei e hah na thai pouh haw.
3 Draw me not away with the wicked, And with the workers of iniquity; That speak peace with their neighbors, But mischief is in their hearts.
Tamikathoutnaw hoehpawiteh, yonnae ka sak e naw hoi cungtalah kai hah na sawn hanh la.
4 Give them according to their work, and according to the wickedness of their doings: Give them after the operation of their hands; Render to them their desert.
Ahnimae sakyoenae hoi kathoute nuencang patetlah patho haw. Amamae kut hoi a sak awh e patetlah patho haw. Ahnimouh ni a khang kawi e hah amamae van bout phat sak haw.
5 Because they regard not the works of Jehovah, Nor the operation of his hands, He will break them down and not build them up.
Ahnimouh teh, BAWIPA e thawnaw hai thoseh, A kutsaknaw hai thoseh, kâhruetcuet laihoi a pouk awh hoeh dawkvah, ahnimanaw hah raphoe vaiteh, nâtuek hai ahnimouh teh bout thaw thai mahoeh toe.
6 Blessed be Jehovah, Because he hath heard the voice of my supplications.
BAWIPA teh yawhawinae awmseh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ka heinae lawk hah a thai toe.
7 Jehovah is my strength and my shield; My heart hath trusted in him, and I am helped: Therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; And with my song will I praise him.
BAWIPA teh kaie ka thaonae hoi kaie e bahling lah ao. Ka lungthin ni a kâuep teh, kabawpnae hah a coe. Hatdawkvah, puenghoi ka konawm. Kai ni la hoi ka pholen han.
8 Jehovah is their strength, And he is a stronghold of salvation to his anointed.
BAWIPA teh a miphunnaw e tha lah ao teh, satui awi e naw ni kâuep e rungngangnae lah ao.
9 Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: Be their shepherd also, and bear them up for ever.
Na miphun hah rungngang na teh, Nange râw hah yawhawi poe haw. Ahnimae tukhoumkung lah awm na teh, ahnimanaw hah a yungyoe sin haw.
