2 Samuel 22
1 And David sang this song to the LORD on the day the LORD had delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul.
A thunkha cungkuem kut lamkah oe, Saul kut lamkah BOEIPA loh anih a huul hnin vaengah, David loh BOEIPA taengah hekah laa lung he a thui.
2 He said: “The LORD is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer.
Te vaengah, “BOEIPA tah ka thaelpang neh ka rhalvong neh kai ham tah kai aka hlawt la om.
3 My God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation. My stronghold, my refuge, and my Savior, You save me from violence.
Ka lungpang Pathen amah dongah ni ka ying, ka photling neh khangnah ki, ka imsang neh ka thuhaelnah, khangkung loh kai he kuthlahnah lamloh nan khang.
4 I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised; so shall I be saved from my enemies.
Thangthen ham tueng BOEIPA te ka khue dongah ka thunkha rhoek taeng lamloh ng'khang.
5 For the waves of death engulfed me; the torrents of chaos overwhelmed me.
Dueknah tuiphu loh kai n'li tih, aka muen soklong loh n'let sak he.
Saelkhui kah rhui loh kai m'ven tih, dueknah hlaeh loh kai m'mah. (Sheol h7585)
7 In my distress I called upon the LORD; I cried out to my God. And from His temple He heard my voice, and my cry for help reached His ears.
Ka kho a bing vaengah BOEIPA te ka khue tih ka Pathen taengah ka pang. Te vaengah ka pang ol te a bawkim lamloh a hna neh a yaak.
8 Then the earth shook and quaked; the foundations of the heavens trembled; they were shaken because He burned with anger.
Te vaengah diklai te tuen la tuen tih hinghuen. Anih taengah a sai dongah vaan kah a yung te tlai tih tuen.
9 Smoke rose from His nostrils, and consuming fire came from His mouth; glowing coals blazed forth.
A hnarhong lamkah hmaikhu thoeng tih, a ka lamkah hmai loh a laeh vaengah hmai-alh khaw tak.
10 He parted the heavens and came down with dark clouds beneath His feet.
Te phoeiah vaan a koiloep tih, a suntlak vaengah yinnah tah a kho hmuila pawk.
11 He mounted a cherub and flew; He soared on the wings of the wind.
Cherub dongah ngol bal tih a ding vaengah khohli phae sola phoe.
12 He made darkness a canopy around Him, a gathering of water and thick clouds.
A kaepvai khohmuep neh khomong khomai dongkah tui tun te dungtlungim la a khueh.
13 From the brightness of His presence coals of fire blazed forth.
Amah hmaikah a aa loh a hmai-alh te a dom.
14 The LORD thundered from heaven; the voice of the Most High resounded.
BOEIPA te vaan lamloh a kawk vaengah Khohni loh a ol a huel.
15 He shot His arrows and scattered the foes; He hurled lightning and routed them.
Thaltang a kah tih amih te a taekyak phoeiah, amih te rhaek neh a khawkkhek la a khawkkhek.
16 The channels of the sea appeared, and the foundations of the world were exposed at the rebuke of the LORD, at the blast of the breath of His nostrils.
BOEIPA kah tluungnah neh a hiil dongkah a thintoek yilh loh lunglai kah yung hoep tih sokca tuipuei khaw tueng.
17 He reached down from on high and took hold of me; He drew me out of deep waters.
A sang lamloh yueng uh tih tui dueng khui lamkah kai he n'tuuk tih n'doek.
18 He rescued me from my powerful enemy, from foes too mighty for me.
Kai ham tah tlung uh dae ka thunkha hlangtlung neh ka lunguet taeng lamkah kai n'huul.
19 They confronted me in my day of calamity, but the LORD was my support.
Ka rhainah hnin ah kai m'mah uh cakhaw BOEIPA tah kai ham tukcawt longkhawn la om.
20 He brought me out into the open; He rescued me because He delighted in me.
Kai khuiah a naep dongah kai he hoengpoeknah la kai n'khuen tih n'pumcum sak.
21 The LORD has rewarded me according to my righteousness; He has repaid me according to the cleanness of my hands.
Ka duengnah bangla BOEIPA loh kai n'thung tih, ka kut kah a cimcaihnah vanbangla kamah taengla ham mael coeng.
22 For I have kept the ways of the LORD and have not wickedly departed from my God.
BOEIPA kah longpuei te ka ngaithuen tih ka Pathen taeng lamloh ka poehlip van pawh.
23 For all His ordinances are before me; I have not disregarded His statutes.
Amah kah laitloeknah boeih te tah a laitloeknah bangla ka hmaiah ka khueh tih a khosing lamloh ka phael pawh.
24 And I have been blameless before Him and kept myself from iniquity.
A hmaiah cuemthuek la ka om tih ka thaesainah lamkah khaw ka cue uh.
25 So the LORD has repaid me according to my righteousness, according to my cleanness in His sight.
A mikhmuh kah ka duengnah, ka cimcaihnah vanbangla BOEIPA loh ka taengah han thuung coeng.
26 To the faithful You show Yourself faithful, to the blameless You show Yourself blameless;
Hingcim taengah uepom la na om tih, cuemthuek hlangrhalh taengah na cungkuem coeng.
27 to the pure You show Yourself pure, but to the crooked You show Yourself shrewd.
Aka meet uh taengah na meet uh tih, voeldak te tah na hnueih.
28 You save an afflicted people, but Your eyes are on the haughty to bring them down.
Pilnam mangdaeng te na khang tih, na mikhmuh kah aka pomsang rhoek te na hlak.
29 For You, O LORD, are my lamp; the LORD lights up my darkness.
BOEIPA namah tah ka hmaithoi la na om tih, ka hmaisuep khaw BOEIPA loh a tue coeng.
30 For in You I can charge an army; with my God I can scale a wall.
Namah nen tah caem khaw ka poeng tih, ka Pathen nen tah pangbueng khaw ka poe thai.
31 As for God, His way is perfect; the word of the LORD is flawless. He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him.
Pathen tah a longpuei khangmai tih, BOEIPA kah olthui a cimcaih dongah anih khuiah aka ying boeih ham tah photling la a om pah.
32 For who is God besides the LORD? And who is the Rock except our God?
BOEIPA phoeikah Pathen te unim? Mamih kah Pathen phoeiah tah unim lungpang bal?
33 God is my strong fortress and He makes my way clear.
Ka lunghim Pathen tah ka thadueng la om tih, a longpuei te ka longpuei ham khangmai la a khueh.
34 He makes my feet like those of a deer and stations me upon the heights.
Ka kho sayuk kho bangla a khueh tih, ka hmuensang ah kai m'pai sak.
35 He trains my hands for battle; my arms can bend a bow of bronze.
Ka kut he caemtloek ham a cang tih ka ban loh rhohum lii khaw a phuk thai.
36 You have given me Your shield of salvation, and Your gentleness exalts me.
Namah kah daemnah photling te ka taengah nam paek tih, namah kah kodonah neh kai nan ping sak.
37 You broaden the path beneath me so that my ankles do not give way.
Ka kungdak kah ka kholaeh khaw na aeh dongah ka kho paloe pawh.
38 I pursued my enemies and destroyed them; I did not turn back until they were consumed.
Ka thunkha rhoek te ka hloem tih, ka mitmoeng sak vaengah amih ka khah hlanah ka balkhong moenih.
39 I devoured and crushed them so they could not rise; they have fallen under my feet.
Amih te ka khah tih ka phop daengah ni thoo uh thai pawt tih ka kho tangah a bakop uh.
40 You have armed me with strength for battle; You have subdued my foes beneath me.
Caemtloek ham khaw kai he thadueng nan vah sak tih, kai aka tlai thil rhoek te kamah hmuila na koisu.
41 You have made my enemies retreat before me; I put an end to those who hated me.
Te dongah ka thunkha rhoek te kai taengah a rhawn na duen sak tih, ka lunguet khaw ka biit.
42 They looked, but there was no one to save them— to the LORD, but He did not answer.
BOEIPA taengah khaw pang uh coeng dae khang voel pawt tih, amih te doo voel pawh.
43 I ground them as the dust of the earth; I crushed and trampled them like mud in the streets.
Te dongah amih te diklai laipi bangla ka neet tih, long kah tangnong bangla ka tip sak phoeiah ka nulh.
44 You have delivered me from the strife of my people; You have preserved me as the head of nations; a people I had not known shall serve me.
Ka pilnam kah tuituknah khui lamkah khaw kai nan hlawt. Namtom kah a lu la kai nan hloe dongah ming pawt pilnam loh kai taengah thotat.
45 Foreigners cower before me; when they hear me, they obey me.
Kholong ca rhoek loh kai taengah mai a tum uh tih, a hna neh a yaak hamla ka ol a hnatun uh.
46 Foreigners lose heart and come trembling from their strongholds.
Kholong ca rhoek loh tahah uh tih, a vongtung khui lamloh yingyet uh.
47 The LORD lives, and blessed be my Rock! And may God, the Rock of my salvation, be exalted—
BOEIPA kah hingnah dongah ka lungpang tah a yoethen pai tih, kai ham daemnah lungpang Pathen tah pomsang pai saeh.
48 the God who avenges me and brings down nations beneath me,
Pathen loh kai hamla tawnlohnah a paek tih, pilnam te kai kungdak la a suntlak sak.
49 who frees me from my enemies. You exalt me above my foes; You rescue me from violent men.
Ka thunkha rhoek taeng lamkah kai nan poh, kai aka tlai thil rhoek kah a sola kai nan pomsang bal. Hlang kah kuthlahnah lamkah kai nan huul.
50 Therefore I will praise You, O LORD, among the nations; I will sing praises to Your name.
Te dongah BOEIPA nang te namtom taengah kan uem vetih na ming te ka tingtoeng ni.
51 Great salvation He brings to His king. He shows loving devotion to His anointed, to David and his descendants forever.”
A manghai kah khangnah imsang tah len pai. Te dongah ni sitlohnah he a koelh taengah khaw, David neh a tiingan taengah khaw kumhal duela a saii pah,” a ti.
