Psalms 54

1 For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments. A Maskil of David. When the Ziphites went to Saul and said, “Is David not hiding among us?” Save me, O God, by Your name, and vindicate me by Your might!

Rhotoeng neh aka mawt ham, “Ziphim loh Saul taengla cet tih kaimih taengah David a thuh moenih, a ti nah vaengkah, David hlohlai Aw Pathen na ming neh kai n'khang lamtah, na thayung thamal neh kai n'tang sak.

2 Hear my prayer, O God; listen to the words of my mouth.

Aw Pathen, ka thangthuinah he ya lamtah, ka ka lamkah ol he hnatun lah.

3 For strangers rise up against me, and ruthless men seek my life— men with no regard for God.

Hlanglak rhoek kai taengah tlai uh tih, hlanghaeng neh a hmai kah Pathen te, a nawt na uh kolla ka hinglu a mae uh. (Selah)

4 Surely God is my helper; the Lord is the sustainer of my soul.

Kai he Pathen loh m'bom tih, ka hinglu aka talong rhoek taengah ka Boeipa om ke.

5 He will reward my enemies with evil. In Your faithfulness, destroy them.

Ka lungawn rhoek soah a thae neh thuung rhoe thuung lamtah, na oltak neh amih te biit lah.

6 Freely I will sacrifice to You; I will praise Your name, O LORD, for it is good.

Na taengah kothoh te, kan nawn saeh lamtah na then dongah BOEIPA nang ming te ka uem eh.

7 For He has delivered me from every trouble, and my eyes have stared down my foes.

Citcai cungkuem lamkah kai n'huul tih, ka thunkha rhoek te ka mik loh a sawt.
