Psalms 59
1 For the choirmaster. To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” A Miktam of David, when Saul sent men to watch David’s house in order to kill him. Deliver me from my enemies, O my God; protect me from those who rise against me.
Kathutkung: Devit, Sawl ni a patoun e naw ni Devit thei hanelah im a ring awh navah sak e la Oe ka Cathut, ka taran kut dawk hoi na rungngang haw. Na ka tarannaw koehoi na hlout sak haw.
2 Deliver me from workers of iniquity, and save me from men of bloodshed.
Ka payonnaw koehoi na rungngang haw. Tami kathetnaw kut dawk hoi na rungngang haw.
3 See how they lie in wait for me. Fierce men conspire against me for no transgression or sin of my own, O LORD.
Ahnimouh ni thei hanelah na pawp awh. Athakaawmnaw teh, kai taranlahoi a kamkhueng awh. Oe BAWIPA, ka yonnae hoi kâtapoenae dawk nahoeh.
4 For no fault of my own, they move swiftly to attack me. Arise to help me, and take notice.
Ka payon hoeh e dawk hoi a yawng awh teh, a kâcai awh. Thaw nateh, khenhaw! na kabawm haw.
5 O LORD God of Hosts, the God of Israel, rouse Yourself to punish all the nations; show no mercy to the wicked traitors.
Hatdawkvah, oe ransahu BAWIPA Cathut, Isarel Cathut, miphun pueng rek hanlah thaw haw, kâtapoe e tamikathoutnaw hah pahren hanh. (Selah)
6 They return in the evening, snarling like dogs and prowling around the city.
Tangmin vah a ban awh teh, khopui a lawngven awh teh, ui patetlah a rauk awh.
7 See what they spew from their mouths— sharp words from their lips: “For who can hear us?”
Ahnimouh teh, dudamnae lawk a dei awh teh, ahnimae pahni dawk tahloi ao teh, apinimouh a thai han aw ati awh.
8 But You, O LORD, laugh at them; You scoff at all the nations.
Hatei, oe BAWIPA, ahnimouh teh na panuikhai han. Miphun pueng teh nang hanlah panui ka tho e lah ao awh.
9 I will keep watch for You, O my strength, because You, O God, are my fortress.
Oe nang, a tha kaawm e, pou na ring han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Cathut teh kânguenae doeh.
10 My God of loving devotion will come to meet me; God will let me stare down my foes.
Lungmakung Cathut ni, na dawn han. Cathut ni ka tarannaw lathueng, ka ngainae a pha sak e hah na hmu sak han.
11 Do not kill them, or my people will forget. Scatter them by Your power, and bring them down, O Lord, our shield.
Ahnimouh teh thet hanh. Hoehpawiteh, ka taminaw ni a pahnim payon awh han doeh. Oe BAWIPA, kaie bahling, na thaonae hoi kapek nateh, koung rahnoum sak haw.
12 By the sins of their mouths and the words of their lips, let them be trapped in their pride, in the curses and lies they utter.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, a pahni dawk hoi a tâco sak e dei payonnae lawk kecu dawkvah, a kâoupnae dawk kâman awh naseh. Thoebonae hoi laithoe a dei awh.
13 Consume them in wrath; consume them till they are no more, so it may be known to the ends of the earth that God rules over Jacob.
Lungkhuek laihoi kahmat sak haw. Hahoi Cathut ni Jakop lathueng vah, lawk a ceng tie hah talai poutnae koe totouh panuek awh naseh.
14 They return in the evening, snarling like dogs and prowling around the city.
Tangmin lah ban awh naseh. Ui patetlah rauk laihoi khopui hah lawngven awh naseh.
15 They scavenge for food, and growl if they are not satisfied.
Ca hane rawca a tawng awh teh, a von a paha hoehroukrak a rauk awh.
16 But I will sing of Your strength and proclaim Your loving devotion in the morning. For You are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble.
Hatei, na thaonae hah la hoi ka sak han. Amom vah na lungmanae hah, kacaipounglah la hoi ka sak han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang teh ka kânguenae hoi lungpout navah, ka yawngnae lah na o.
17 To You, O my strength, I sing praises, for You, O God, are my fortress, my God of loving devotion.
Oe ka thaonae, nang koe pholennae la ka sak han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Cathut teh ka kânguenae lah ao teh, lungmakung Cathut lah ao.
