Psalms 22
1 For the choirmaster. To the tune of “The Doe of the Dawn.” A Psalm of David. My God, my God, why have You forsaken me? Why are You so far from saving me, so far from my words of groaning?
Kathutkung: Devit Ka Cathut, ka Cathut, bangkongmaw na cei takhai. Bangkongmaw ka kâhramnae lawk thai laipalah, na kabawp hoeh nahanlah ahlanae koe na o.
2 I cry out by day, O my God, but You do not answer, and by night, but I have no rest.
Oe Cathut, khodai lah kâhram ei, nang ni na thai pouh hoeh. Karum lahai duem ka onae awm hoeh.
3 Yet You are holy, enthroned on the praises of Israel.
Hatei, nang teh, na thoung. Isarelnaw ni pholen e lah na o.
4 In You our fathers trusted; they trusted and You delivered them.
Ka mintoenaw ni na kâuep teh, na rungngang.
5 They cried out to You and were set free; they trusted in You and were not disappointed.
Na kaw awh teh, na rungngang. Na kâuep awh teh, yeiraipo boi awh hoeh.
6 But I am a worm and not a man, scorned by men and despised by the people.
Hatei, kai teh tangraet lah doeh ka o. Ayâ ni pathoe e hoi pacekpahlek e lah ka o.
7 All who see me mock me; they sneer and shake their heads:
Na ka hmawt e pueng ni na panuikhai, a pahni na ke sin awh. A lû na saling sin awh.
8 “He trusts in the LORD, let the LORD deliver him; let the LORD rescue him, since He delights in him.”
BAWIPA a kâuep nahoehmaw, ama ni rungngang na haw seh. Ahni dawk a ngainae awm pawiteh, atu roeroe rungngang na haw seh, telah ati awh.
9 Yet You brought me forth from the womb; You made me secure at my mother’s breast.
Hatei, nang teh anu von thung hoi na karasatkung doeh. Sanu ka nei lahun nah puennae na takhoe pouh.
10 From birth I was cast upon You; from my mother’s womb You have been my God.
Pek khe hoi nang dawk hruek e lah ka o. Anu von thung hoi patenghai, nang teh ka Cathut lah yo la na o toe.
11 Be not far from me, for trouble is near and there is no one to help.
Kai koehoi ahlanae koe awm hanh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, runae a hnai teh kabawmkung awm hoeh.
12 Many bulls surround me; strong bulls of Bashan encircle me.
Maitotan moikapap ni na kalup. Bashan ram e athakaawme maitotannaw ni na kalup.
13 They open their jaws against me like lions that roar and maul.
A pahni na ang sin awh teh, sendek patetlah a cairing awh.
14 I am poured out like water, and all my bones are disjointed. My heart is like wax; it melts away within me.
Tui patetlah rabawk lah ka o teh, ka hruhrawng pueng teh koung a kâla. Ka lungthin teh khoilai patetlah ka thung vah, a kamyawt toe.
15 My strength is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth. You lay me in the dust of death.
Ka tharui teh ampaikei patetlah a ke teh, ka lai hai ka dangka dawk a kâbet teh, duenae vaiphu dawk na ceikhai.
16 For dogs surround me; a band of evil men encircles me; they have pierced my hands and feet.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, uinaw ni na kalup awh. Tamikathoutnaw ni na kalup awh. Ka kut hoi ka khok pawkkayawng lah a thut awh.
17 I can count all my bones; they stare and gloat over me.
Ka hru pueng koung ka touk thai. Pout laipalah na khet awh teh, a lungkhuekti awh.
18 They divide my garments among them and cast lots for my clothing.
Ka khohna a kârei awh teh, ka angki hah cungpam a rayu awh.
19 But You, O LORD, be not far off; O my Strength, come quickly to help me.
Oe BAWIPA na hlat takhai hanh. Oe ka thaonae karanglah na kabawm haw.
20 Deliver my soul from the sword, my precious life from the power of wild dogs.
Senehmaica hoi na rungngang haw, ka hringnae ka sungren e heh uinaw thaonae koehoi na rungngang haw.
21 Save me from the mouth of the lion; at the horns of the wild oxen You have answered me!
Sendek kâko dawk hoi na rungngang nateh, savi ki dawk hoi na rungngang haw. Na pato leih.
22 I will proclaim Your name to my brothers; I will praise You in the assembly.
Ka hmaunawnghanaw koe na min ka pâpho vaiteh, kamkhuengnaw koe na pholen han.
23 You who fear the LORD, praise Him! All descendants of Jacob, honor Him! All offspring of Israel, revere Him!
Nangmouh BAWIPA kataketnaw, ama teh pholen awh. Jakop catounnaw pueng ama teh tawmrasang awh nateh, Isarel catounnaw pueng ama teh taket awh.
24 For He has not despised or detested the torment of the afflicted. He has not hidden His face from him, but has attended to his cry for help.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, runae ka khang e runae hah, dudam hoeh niteh, ahni koehoi a minhmai hai hrawk hoeh. Hatei, ahni koe a hram toteh a thai.
25 My praise for You resounds in the great assembly; I will fulfill my vows before those who fear You.
Kalen e kamkhuengnae koe ka pholen e teh nang han doeh. Ama kataketnaw hmalah ka lawkkam hah ka kuep sak han.
26 The poor will eat and be satisfied; those who seek the LORD will praise Him. May your hearts live forever!
Tami ka roedeng ni cat vaiteh a von a paha han. Ama katawngnaw ni BAWIPA teh a pholen han. Na lungthin hah pou kâhlaw seh.
27 All the ends of the earth will remember and turn to the LORD. All the families of the nations will bow down before Him.
Talai poutnae pueng ni a pâkuem awh teh, BAWIPA koe a kamlang awh vaiteh, miphun pueng ni na bawk awh han.
28 For dominion belongs to the LORD and He rules over the nations.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, uknaeram teh BAWIPA e doeh. Miphunnaw hah a uk.
29 All the rich of the earth will feast and worship; all who go down to the dust will kneel before Him— even those unable to preserve their lives.
Talaivan katawntanaw pueng ni cat awh vaiteh a bawk awh han. Ma e hringnae ring thai awh hoeh. Vaiphu lah ka ban e pueng a hmalah a tabo awh han.
30 Posterity will serve Him; they will declare the Lord to a new generation.
Ahnimae catounnaw ni hai a bawk awh vaiteh, catounnaw ni hai BAWIPA e kamthang hah a dei awh han.
31 They will come and proclaim His righteousness to a people yet unborn— all that He has done.
A lannae, pâpho hanelah a tho awh vaiteh, khe lah kaawm hane naw koe BAWIPA ni hetheh a sak telah a pâpho awh han.
