Psalms 71
1 In You, O LORD, I have taken refuge; let me never be put to shame.
BOEIPA nang dongah ka ying tih, kumhal ah yah m'poh sak boeh.
2 In Your justice, rescue and deliver me; incline Your ear and save me.
Na duengnah neh, kai na huul tih nan hlawt. Te dongah na hna te kai taengla han hooi lamtah, kai n'khang lah.
3 Be my rock of refuge, where I can always go. Give the command to save me, for You are my rock and my fortress.
Caeh taitu vaengkah ham, kai taengah lungpang khuirhung la ha om lah. Namah te ka thaelpang neh ka rhalvong la na om dongah, kai khang ham khaw na uen.
4 Deliver me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the grasp of the unjust and ruthless.
Ka Pathen aw, halang kut lamloh, aka phayoe tih aka muen kah kutpha lamloh, kai n'hlawt lah.
5 For You are my hope, O Lord GOD, my confidence from my youth.
Ka Boeipa Yahovah namah tah, ka ngaiuepnah neh, ka camoe lamkah ka pangtungnah ni.
6 I have leaned on You since birth; You pulled me from my mother’s womb. My praise is always for You.
Bungko khui lamkah nang dongah ka hangdang coeng. Namah loh a nu ko khui lamkah kai nan poh. Namah te kai kah koehnah la na om yoeyah.
7 I have become a portent to many, but You are my strong refuge.
Hlang tom taengah mikdairhueng bangla ka om cakhaw namah te ka hlipyingnah sarhi la na om.
8 My mouth is filled with Your praise and with Your splendor all day long.
Namah kah boeimangnah rhangneh namah koehnah te hnin takuem ka ka ah baetawt.
9 Do not discard me in my old age; do not forsake me when my strength fails.
Ka patong tue vaengah kai m'voei boeh. Ka thadueng a bawt vaengah kai nan hnoo mahpawh.
10 For my enemies speak against me, and those who lie in wait for my life conspire,
Ka thunkha rhoek loh kai taengah cal uh tih ka hinglu dawn ham tun caai uh.
11 saying, “God has forsaken him; pursue him and seize him, for there is no one to rescue him.”
“Anih he Pathen loh a hnoo coeng dongah hloem uh sih lamtah tu uh sih. Anih aka huul ham khaw hlang a om moenih,” a ti uh.
12 Be not far from me, O God. Hurry, O my God, to help me.
Pathen aw kai taeng lamkah lakhla tak boeh. Kai bomkung ham ka Pathen nang ha tawn rhoe ha tawn uh laeh.
13 May the accusers of my soul be ashamed and consumed; may those who seek my harm be covered with scorn and disgrace.
Ka hinglu aka khingkhoek rhoek te yahpok uh saeh lamtah hmata uh saeh. Kai kah yoethae aka hue rhoe te kokhahnah neh mingthae loh thing uh saeh.
14 But I will always hope and will praise You more and more.
Tedae kai loh ka ngaiuep yoeyah vetih namah koehnah te boeih ka khoep ni.
15 My mouth will declare Your righteousness and Your salvation all day long, though I cannot know their full measure.
Nan khangnah te taenah ham ka ming pawt cakhaw na duengnah te ka ka loh hnin takuem a tae bitni.
16 I will enter in the strength of the Lord GOD; I will proclaim Your righteousness—Yours alone.
Ka Boeipa Yahovah kah thayung thamal khuila ka lo vetih, namah bueng dongah ni na duengnah ka thoelh eh.
17 O God, You have taught me from my youth, and to this day I proclaim Your marvelous deeds.
Pathen aw, ka camoe lamkah kai nan cang puei dongah tahae duela namah kah khobaerhambae te ka doek.
18 Even when I am old and gray, do not forsake me, O God, until I proclaim Your power to the next generation, Your might to all who are to come.
Pathen aw, thawnpuei taengah na bantha, hmailong kah aka lo ham boeih taengah na thayung thamal ka doek hlanhil tah patong sampok la ka om cakhaw kai nan hnoo mahpawh.
19 Your righteousness reaches to the heavens, O God, You who have done great things. Who, O God, is like You?
Tedae Pathen na duengnah loh a sang duela a puet. Pathen loh duelhduelh na saii te namah bangla ulae aka om?
20 Though You have shown me many troubles and misfortunes, You will revive me once again. Even from the depths of the earth You will bring me back up.
Kai he citcai neh yoethaenah muep nan hmuh khaw nan hmuh sak dae koep nan hing khaw nan hing sak vetih diklai laedil lamkah koep nan lat bal ni.
21 You will increase my honor and comfort me once again.
Ka lennah nan pueh vetih kai nan hloep bal ni.
22 So I will praise You with the harp for Your faithfulness, O my God; I will sing praise to You with the lyre, O Holy One of Israel.
Kai khaw ka Pathen namah kah uepomnah te thangpa toembael neh kan uem vetih Israel kah a cim namah te rhotoeng neh ka tingtoeng ni.
23 When I sing praise to You my lips will shout for joy, along with my soul, which You have redeemed.
Ka hinglu he na lat coeng dongah nang te kan tingtoeng vaengah ka hmui ka lai neh ka tamhoe ni.
24 My tongue will indeed proclaim Your righteousness all day long, for those who seek my harm are disgraced and confounded.
Kai kah yoethae aka hue rhoek loh yah a poh uh tih a hmai a tal uh coeng dongah ka lai long khaw hnin takuem nang kah duengnah te a thuep ni.
