Psalms 69
1 For the choirmaster. To the tune of “Lilies.” Of David. Save me, O God, for the waters are up to my neck.
Aw Khawsa, ni hul lah, tui ing ka hawng dy pha law hawh hy.
2 I have sunk into the miry depths, where there is no footing; I have drifted into deep waters, where the flood engulfs me.
Khaw lehnaak coet amak awm dizui ak khuina tla hawh nyng. Tuidung na nung tla nyng saw; tui ing ni zawl malh hawh hy.
3 I am weary from my crying; my throat is parched. My eyes fail, looking for my God.
Bawmnaak thoeh doena kak khy aih awh; kak awiqawng koh hawh hy. Khawsa ka toeknaak awh kamik awm am dang voel hawh hy.
4 Those who hate me without cause outnumber the hairs of my head; many are those who would destroy me— my enemies for no reason. Though I did not steal, I must repay.
Kaw am maiawh, kai anik sawhnaak thlangkhqi ve ka lu awhkaw lusam anglakawh doem khqoet uhy; amak awm qoe ikaw am maiawh kai hqe aham anik sui ka qaalkhqi kqeng soeih hy.
5 You know my folly, O God, and my guilt is not hidden from You.
Aw Khawsa, ka qawnaak ve nang ing sim hyk ti, ka sai thawlhnaak ve na hai awhkawng thuh thai na am awm hy.
6 May those who hope in You not be ashamed through me, O Lord GOD of Hosts; may those who seek You not be dishonored through me, O God of Israel.
Aw Bawipa, Boeimang Bawipa, nang awh ngaih-unaak ak ta thlangkhqi ce kai awh kawboetnaak koeh ta u seh; Aw Israelkhqi a Khawsa, nang anik suikhqi ce kai awh chahqai koeh hu u seh.
7 For I have endured scorn for Your sake, and shame has covered my face.
Ikawtih, nang awh ce kqawn setnaak kung na nawh chahnaak ing ka haai ni dah khoep hy.
8 I have become a stranger to my brothers and a foreigner to my mother’s sons,
Ka koeinakhqi venawh khin na awm nyng saw, ka nucakhqi venawh thlak ha na awm nyng;
9 because zeal for Your house has consumed me, and the insults of those who insult You have fallen on me.
Na im awh kak tha thawhnaak ing ni ai zip nawh, nang anik kqawnsetkhqi ak kqawn setnaak ce kak khan awh tla hy.
10 I wept and fasted, but it brought me reproach.
Buh zeih ing kqang doena kak cykcah awhtaw, kqawn setnaak ce yh thai bit kawng nyng;
11 I made sackcloth my clothing, and I was sport to them.
Dip che kang byng awh ce, thlangkhqi ing lym hangnaak na ni sai uhy.
12 Those who sit at the gate mock me, and I am the song of drunkards.
Vawng chawmkeng awhkaw ak ngawikhqi ing ni qaih na unawh, zuk quikhqi a qenglung taila na awm kqoeng nyng.
13 But my prayer to You, O LORD, is for a time of favor. In Your abundant loving devotion, O God, answer me with Your sure salvation.
Nang nak kaw a zeel tym awh, Aw Bawipa, na venawh cykcah law nyng; Aw Khawsa, cawh ce na lungnaak awh, na hulnaak tak ing nim hlat lah.
14 Rescue me from the mire and do not let me sink; deliver me from my foes and out of the deep waters.
Nawng khui awhkawng ni hul nawhtaw, koeh ning cum sak; kai anik sawhnaakkhqi kut khui awhkawng ni hul nawhtaw tui dung khui awhkawng ni thaawng lah.
15 Do not let the floods engulf me or the depths swallow me up; let not the Pit close its mouth over me.
Tui doem ing koeh ni sing seitaw tui dung ingawm koeh nik daih seh. Lawk-kqawng ingawm am kha koeh ni khyp sih seh.
16 Answer me, O LORD, for Your loving devotion is good; turn to me in keeping with Your great compassion.
Aw Bawipa, na lungnaak leeknaak ing nim hlat lah; nam qeennaak bau soeih ak caming kai benna hawi qu law cang lah.
17 Hide not Your face from Your servant, for I am in distress. Answer me quickly!
Na tyihzawih a ven awhkawng na haai ce koeh thuh nawhtaw; kyinaak hu vik hawh nyng, nang ing ang tawnna nim hlat lah.
18 Draw near to my soul and redeem me; ransom me because of my foes.
Ka venawh zoe law nawh ni hul lah; ka qaalkhqi awhkawng nang ing ni thaawng lah.
19 You know my reproach, my shame and disgrace. All my adversaries are before You.
Kawamyihna nik kqawn seet unawh, kaw boetnaak ingkaw chahqai na ni ta uhy tice nang ing sim hyk ti; ka qaalkhqi boeih ve na haiawh ni ami awm.
20 Insults have broken my heart, and I am in despair. I looked for sympathy, but there was none, for comforters, but I found no one.
kqawn setnaak ing kak kawlung kqek sak unawh hulkung ak taal na ni ta hyt uhy; hlang qeenkhaw ak ngai sui moe nyng, u awm am hu nyng saw, ak hloepkung sui moe nyng, u awm am awm hy.
21 They poisoned my food with gall and gave me vinegar to quench my thirst.
Ka buh awh a hyt kha ni taak law pe unawh ka tui ngaih a sitnaak na misur tui ak thui ni pe uhy.
22 May their table become a snare; may it be a retribution and a trap.
A mingmih a haiawh caboei dawn peek na ak awm ce thang na dun pe u sei taw; Khawboe set phu zawk naak ing pel na phawk pe u seh.
23 May their eyes be darkened so they cannot see, and their backs be bent forever.
Ami mikkhqi a mang dangnaak aham hyp pesak khqi seitaw, amim tingkhqi awm khun pek khqi loet seh nyng.
24 Pour out Your wrath upon them, and let Your burning anger overtake them.
Cek khqik khan awh nak kawsonaak ce hawk pe lah; nak kawsonaak ak eih ing cekkhqi ce kee seh.
25 May their place be deserted; let there be no one to dwell in their tents.
A mingmih a awmnaak ce pawng seitaw; cekkhqi a im awhkaw a u awm koeh awm voel seh.
26 For they persecute the one You struck and recount the pain of those You wounded.
Ikawtih, nang ing ngawha na ai sak thlangkhqi ce the a kha na unawh nang ing tlawh na peek thlangkhqi kawng ce kqawn uhy.
27 Add iniquity to their iniquity; let them not share in Your righteousness.
A sai thawlhnaak ce sai thawlhnaak ing sap pe lah; nang a hulnaak ce koeh huh sak.
28 May they be blotted out of the Book of Life and not listed with the righteous.
Hqingnaak cauk awhkawng cekkhqi ce caih sak bang nawh thlakdyngkhqi mi koeh noet sih haih.
29 But I am in pain and distress; let Your salvation protect me, O God.
Thawlhnaak ing khuikha hawh nyng; Aw Khawsa, na hulnaak ing nik chung seh nyng.
30 I will praise God’s name in song and exalt Him with thanksgiving.
Laa ing Khawsa ang ming ce kyihcah nyng saw zeelnaak awi kqawnnaak ing zoeksang kawng nyng.
31 And this will please the LORD more than an ox, more than a bull with horns and hooves.
Vaitawm cai anglakawh Bawipa zeel sak khqoet kawmsaw, ki ingkaw khawme ak ta vaitawm cai anglakawh Bawipa zeel sak khqoet kaw.
32 The humble will see and rejoice. You who seek God, let your hearts be revived!
Khawdengkhqi ing hu kawm usaw zeel kawm uh. Nangmih Khawsa ak suikhqi, namik kawlung hqing seh!
33 For the LORD listens to the needy and does not despise His captive people.
Bawipa ing ak voethlauh thlangkhqik awi ce zaak pek khqi nawh tamnaa na ak awm thlangkhqi awm am hep hy.
34 Let heaven and earth praise Him, the seas and everything that moves in them.
Khan ingkaw dek ing amah kyihcah seitaw, tuicunli ingkaw ak khui awhkaw ak cawlhtat khqi boeih ingawm,
35 For God will save Zion and rebuild the cities of Judah, that they may dwell there and possess it.
Ikawtih, Khawsa ing Zion ce hul kawmsaw Judah khawk baukhqi ce thawh tlaih kaw. Cawhtaw thlangkhqi ce ak khuiawh awm kawm usaw pang pahoei kawm uh;
36 The descendants of His servants will inherit it, and those who love His name will settle in it.
A tyihzawihkhqi a cadilkhqi ing pang kawm usaw, ang ming ak lungnaak thlangkhqi ce a khawk khuiawh awm hawh kawm uh.
