< Psalms 64 >
1 For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. Hear, O God, my voice of complaint; preserve my life from dread of the enemy.
Kathutkung: Devit Oe Cathut, ka phuenangnae dawk, ka lawk na thai pouh haw. Ka tarannaw ka takinae koehoi ka hringnae na khetyawt lawih.
2 Hide me from the scheming of the wicked, from the mob of workers of iniquity,
Tamikathoutnaw e kâdeikâpannae koehoi thoseh, Payonnae kasaknaw kamkhuengnae koehoi thoseh, na ngue haw.
3 who sharpen their tongues like swords and aim their bitter words like arrows,
Ahnimouh ni amamae lai hah, tahloi patetlah a hran sak awh.
4 ambushing the innocent in seclusion, shooting suddenly, without fear.
Yonnae ka tawn hoeh e tami hah arulahoi ka hanelah, lawkthoeumkha pala hoi a nue awh teh, takinae tawn laipalah vaitalahoi ouk a ka awh.
5 They hold fast to their evil purpose; they speak of hiding their snares. “Who will see them?” they say.
Hawihoehnae dawk buet touh hoi buet touh a kâhroecoe awh. Tangkhek patung hanelah a kâpan awh teh, apinimouh na hmu han vah ouk ati awh.
6 They devise injustice and say, “We have perfected a secret plan.” For the inner man and the heart are mysterious.
Hawihoehnae hah ma hanelah a pâphue awh. Ngit a pâphue awh. Lungthin thung lengkaleng a pouknae teh a dungpoung.
7 But God will shoot them with arrows; suddenly they will be wounded.
Ahnimouh teh Cathut ni pala hoi a ka vaiteh, pouk laipalah hmâ a ca awh han.
8 They will be made to stumble, their own tongues turned against them. All who see will shake their heads.
A dei awh e lawk dawk letlang a rawp sak vaiteh, ka hmawt e pueng ni a yawng takhai awh han.
9 Then all mankind will fear and proclaim the work of God; so they will ponder what He has done.
Tami pueng ni taket vaiteh, Cathut ni a sak e doeh tie a pâpho awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hmantang a sak awh e hah a pouk awh han.
10 Let the righteous rejoice in the LORD and take refuge in Him; let all the upright in heart exult.
Tamikalan teh BAWIPA dawk konawm vaiteh, ama hah a kâuep han. A lungthin kalan e pueng ni a pholen awh han.
