< Psalms 68 >
1 For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. A song. God arises. His enemies are scattered, and those who hate Him flee His presence.
[Aka mawt ham David kah tingtoeng laa] Pathen he thoo vetih a thunkha rhoek taekyak uh mako. A lunguet rhoek khaw a mikhmuh lamkah rhaelrham uh mako.
2 As smoke is blown away, You will drive them out; as wax melts before the fire, the wicked will perish in the presence of God.
Halang rhoek he Pathen hmai ah hmaikhu a yah bangla na yah vetih, hmai hmai ah khoirhat a paci bangla milh uh saeh.
3 But the righteous will be glad and rejoice before God; they will celebrate with joy.
Tedae hlang dueng rhoek tah kohoenah neh Pathen hmai ah a sundaep neh a kohoe uh saeh lamtah ngaingaih uh saeh.
4 Sing to God! Sing praises to His name. Exalt Him who rides on the clouds — His name is the LORD— and rejoice before Him.
Pathen te hlai lamtah a ming te tingtoeng uh lah. Vaan kolken dongah aka ngol BOEIPA ming te pomsang uh lamtah a hmai ah sundaep uh.
5 A father of the fatherless, and a defender of the widows, is God in His holy habitation.
Amah kah khuirhung hmuencim ah aka om Pathen tah cadah rhoek kah a napa neh nuhmai rhoek kah laitloekkung la om.
6 God settles the lonely in families; He leads the prisoners out to prosperity, but the rebellious dwell in a sun-scorched land.
Pathen loh oingaih cangloeng te imlo neh kho a sak sak tih thongtla rhoek te lolmangcil neh a khuen. Tedae thinthah rhoek tah rhamrhae ah kho a sak uh.
7 O God, when You went out before Your people, when You marched through the wasteland,
Pathen aw na pilnam hmai ah na caeh vaengah, khopong la na luei vaengah. (Selah)
8 the earth shook and the heavens poured down rain before God, the One on Sinai, before God, the God of Israel.
Israel Pathen, Pathen hmai ah, Sinai Pathen hmai ah, diklai he hinghuen tih vaan khaw cip.
9 You sent abundant rain, O God; You refreshed Your weary inheritance.
Pathen namah loh kothoh khonal nan suep tih thahnoeng khaw na rho neh na thoh.
10 Your flock settled therein; O God, from Your bounty You provided for the poor.
Pathen nang loh mangdaeng ham na hnothen te na soepboe pah tih a khuiah na hingnah loh kho a sak uh.
11 The Lord gives the command; a great company of women proclaim it:
Ka Boeipa loh a olkhueh te a paek tih olthangthen aka phong caempuei khaw len.
12 “Kings and their armies flee in haste; she who waits at home divides the plunder.
Manghai rhoek kah caempuei loh yong rhoela yong uh tih im kah toitlim te kutbuem la a tael.
13 Though you lie down among the sheepfolds, the wings of the dove are covered with silver, and her feathers with shimmering gold.”
Tuvong ah na yalh uh vaengkah te, cak neh a hluk vahui phae, sui hing neh a hluk phaemul van pawn ni.
14 When the Almighty scattered the kings in the land, it was like the snow falling on Zalmon.
Tlungthang Pathen loh a khuikah manghai rhoek a taek a yak vaengah Zalmon ah vuel bo.
15 A mountain of God is Mount Bashan; a mountain of many peaks is Mount Bashan.
Pathen kah tlang, Bashan tlang, Bashan tlang kah tlang som rhoek,
16 Why do you gaze in envy, O mountains of many peaks? This is the mountain God chose for His dwelling, where the LORD will surely dwell forever.
Ba dongah tlang som rhoek loh na pangoe uh. Tekah tlang te Pathen amah loh khosak thil ham a nai tih BOEIPA loh yoeyah la kho a sak thil ni.
17 The chariots of God are tens of thousands— thousands of thousands are they; the Lord is in His sanctuary as He was at Sinai.
Pathen kah leng tah a rhaepnah thawng thawngrha lo. Hmuencim kah aka om Sinai kah amih lakli ah Boeipa om.
18 You have ascended on high; You have led captives away. You have received gifts from men, even from the rebellious, that the LORD God may dwell there.
Hmuen sang la na luei tih tamna rhoek na sol vaengah BOEIPA Pathen namah loh khosak puei ham hlang taeng neh thinthah rhoek taengkah kutdoe pataeng na doe.
19 Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burden, the God of our salvation.
Ka Boeipa tah a hnin, hnin ah a yoethen pai saeh. Mamih kah khangnah Pathen tah mamih ham thinrhih coeng. (Selah)
20 Our God is a God of deliverance; the Lord GOD is our rescuer from death.
Mamih kah Pathen tah khangnah Pathen la om tih, ka Boeipa Yahovah taengah dueknah lamkah longrhael khaw om.
21 Surely God will crush the heads of His enemies, the hairy crowns of those who persist in guilty ways.
Amah kah tholhnah neh aka pongpa tah Pathen loh thunkha lu bangla a luki sam soah a phop ni.
22 The Lord said, “I will retrieve them from Bashan, I will bring them up from the depths of the sea,
Ka Boeipa loh, “Bashan lamkah kam bal puei vetih tuitunli kah a laedil lamkah kam mael puei ni.
23 that your foot may be dipped in the blood of your foes— the tongues of your dogs in the same.”
Te vaengah thunkha lamkah thii na kho na nuem thil te na ui rhoek loh a lai neh a laeh uh vetih, amih kah rhuimal khaw na pang uh ni,” a ti.
24 They have seen Your procession, O God— the march of my God and King into the sanctuary.
Pathen namah kah lambong rhoek, ka Pathen, ka manghai kah lambong rhoek loh hmuencim la a khong uh te a hmuh uh coeng.
25 The singers lead the way, the musicians follow after, among the maidens playing tambourines.
Laa sa rhoek loh lamhma uh tih a hnukthoi loh a tumbael a tum, a laklung kah hula rhoek loh toemrhang a tum uh.
26 Bless God in the great congregation; bless the LORD from the fountain of Israel.
Pathen te khangkhung lakli ah, BOEIPA te Israel thunsih ah uem lah.
27 There is Benjamin, the youngest, ruling them, the princes of Judah in their company, the princes of Zebulun and of Naphtali.
Canoi Benjamin loh Judah mangpa hlangkuk rhoek, Zebulun mangpa rhoek, Naphtali mangpa rhoek te a taemrhai.
28 Summon Your power, O God; show Your strength, O God, which You have exerted on our behalf.
Pathen namah loh na sarhi te uen lamtah kaimih ham na saii bangla Pathen namah te mah tanglue lah.
29 Because of Your temple at Jerusalem kings will bring You gifts.
Na bawkim rhang neh manghai rhoek loh nang ham kutdoe te Jerusalem la hang khuen uh ni.
30 Rebuke the beast in the reeds, the herd of bulls among the calves of the nations, until it submits, bringing bars of silver. Scatter the nations who delight in war.
Capu mulhing ke tluung lah. Pilnam saelca rhoek neh aka lueng rhaengpuei khaw cak boeng neh a san thil. Caemrhal aka ngaih pilnam rhoek khaw a haeh.
31 Envoys will arrive from Egypt; Cush will stretch out her hands to God.
Egypt lamkah laipai rhoek halo uh ni. Kusah loh Pathen taengah a kut a duen ni.
32 Sing to God, O kingdoms of the earth; sing praises to the Lord—
Diklai ram rhoek loh Pathen te hlai uh lamtah ka Boeipa te tingtoeng uh. (Selah)
33 to Him who rides upon the highest heavens of old; behold, His mighty voice resounds.
Hlamat lamkah vaan dong vaan dongah aka ngol loh a ol neh sarhi ol a paek coeng ke.
34 Ascribe the power to God, whose majesty is over Israel, whose strength is in the skies.
Pathen kah sarhi te doek uh lah. A hoemnah neh khomong dongkah a sarhi tah Israel soah om.
35 O God, You are awesome in Your sanctuary; the God of Israel Himself gives strength and power to His people. Blessed be God!
Pathen namah kah rhokso ah a rhih om pai. Israel Pathen amah loh pilnam taengah sarhi neh thadueng a paek. Pathen tah a yoethen pai saeh.
