Psalms 34
1 Of David, when he pretended to be insane before Abimelech, so that the king drove him away. I will bless the LORD at all times; His praise will always be on my lips.
Abimelek hmai ah a omih te a thovael tih a haek dongah a caeh vaengkah David A tuetang boeih dongah BOEIPA te ka uem vetih, ka ka dongah amah koehnah om yoeyah saeh.
2 My soul boasts in the LORD; let the oppressed hear and rejoice.
Ka hinglu loh BOEIPA dongah thangthen saeh. kodo rhoek loh ya saeh lamtah a kohoe uh saeh.
3 Magnify the LORD with me; let us exalt His name together.
BOEIPA te kai neh pomsang uh sih lamtah a ming te tun pomsang uh sih.
4 I sought the LORD, and He answered me; He delivered me from all my fears.
BOEIPA te ka tlap vaengah kai n'doo tih ka rhihnahkoi boeih lamloh kai n'huul.
5 Those who look to Him are radiant with joy; their faces shall never be ashamed.
BOEIPA te a paelki vaengah hlampan uh tih a maelhmai tal uh pawh.
6 This poor man called out, and the LORD heard him; He saved him from all his troubles.
Mangdaeng loh a khue te khaw BOEIPA loh a yaak dongah citcai boeih lamkah anih te a khang.
7 The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear Him, and he delivers them.
Amah aka rhih rhoek kah kaepvai ah BOEIPA kah puencawn te rhaeh tih amih te a pumcum sak.
8 Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him!
Ten lamtah BOEIPA then tila hmuh lah. Amah dongah aka ying hlang tah a yoethen.
9 Fear the LORD, you His saints, for those who fear Him lack nothing.
Amah aka rhih rhoek ham tah a tloelnah a om pawt dongah a hlang cim rhoek loh BOEIPA te rhih uh lah.
10 Young lions go lacking and hungry, but those who seek the LORD lack no good thing.
Sathuengc a rhoek loh vawtthoek tih lamlum cakhaw BOEIPA aka tlap rhoek ham hnothen pakhat khaw vaitah uh uh mahpawh.
11 Come, children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
Camoe rhoek halo uh. Kai ol he ya uh lah. BOEIPA hinyahnah te nangmih kan cang puei eh.
12 Who is the man who delights in life, who desires to see good days?
Khohnin then hmuh ham aka lungnah tih hingnah dongah aka omtoem hlang te ulae?
13 Keep your tongue from evil and your lips from deceitful speech.
Na lai te a thae lamkah, na ka te thailatnah aka thui lamloh rhalrhing lah.
14 Turn away from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.
A thae te nong tak lamtah hnothen te saii lah. Rhoepnah te tlap lamtah anih te hloem lah.
15 The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous, and His ears are inclined to their cry.
Hlang dueng rhoek soah BOEIPA mik om tih amih kah a pang uh te a hna a kaeng.
16 But the face of the LORD is against those who do evil, to wipe out all memory of them from the earth.
Thae aka saii rhoek te diklai kah poekkoepnah lamkah khoe ham BOEIPA loh a hmai a thuh.
17 The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears; He delivers them from all their troubles.
Hlang dueng rhoek apang uh vaengah BOEIPA loh a yaak tih amamih kah citcai boeih lamkah amih te a huul.
18 The LORD is near to the brokenhearted; He saves the contrite in spirit.
Lungbuei aka rhek taengah BOEIPA a yoei pah tih mueihla aka hnipdik te a khang.
19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him from them all.
Hlang dueng kah yoethae he yet dae yoethae khui boeih lamkah anih te BOEIPA loh a huul.
20 He protects all his bones; not one of them will be broken.
Anih kah a rhuh boeih a ngaithuen pah dongah pakhat khaw paep mahpawh.
21 Evil will slay the wicked, and the haters of the righteous will be condemned.
Halang te boethae loh a duek sak vetih, hlang dueng aka hmuhuet te boe ni.
22 The LORD redeems His servants, and none who take refuge in Him will be condemned.
A sal rhoek kah a hinglu te BOEIPA loh a lat tih amah dongah aka ying boeih tah boe uh uh mahpawh.
