Psalms 79
1 A Psalm of Asaph. The nations, O God, have invaded Your inheritance; they have defiled Your holy temple and reduced Jerusalem to rubble.
Aw Khawsa, pilnam thlangkhqi ing na qo ak pangkhqi tuk hawh uhy; na bawkim ciim ce tyih kap sak unawh, Jerusalem ce qawp sak hawh uhy.
2 They have given the corpses of Your servants as food to the birds of the air, the flesh of Your saints to the beasts of the earth.
Na tyihzawih thlangkhqi qawk ce khan nakaw phakhqi a buh na pe uhy; nak thlang ciimkhqi a sa ce khawmdek qamsakhqi a buh na pe uhy.
3 They have poured out their blood like water all around Jerusalem, and there is no one to bury the dead.
Jerusalem a kengsam awh tui amyihna thi ce hawk uhy, qawk ak pup hly kawi u pynoet awm am awm hy.
4 We have become a reproach to our neighbors, a scorn and derision to those around us.
Kami kengsam awhkaw thlangkhqi a qaihbu nani kami awm hawh hy.
5 How long, O LORD? Will You be angry forever? Will Your jealousy burn like fire?
Iqyt dy nu, Aw Bawipa? Kumqui dyna nak kaw so hly hawh nawh nu? Iqyt dy nu nak thatlainaak ce mai amyihna a uih kaw?
6 Pour out Your wrath on the nations that do not acknowledge You, on the kingdoms that refuse to call on Your name,
Nang ama nik sim pilnam ak khan awh nak kawsonaak ce hawk lah, nang ming amak khy pilnam ak khan awh nak kawsonaak ce hawk lah;
7 for they have devoured Jacob and devastated his homeland.
kawtih cekhqi ing Jacob ce daih unawh a im a lokhqi ce hqe pe pheng hawh uhy.
8 Do not hold past sins against us; let Your compassion come quickly, for we are brought low.
Ami pakhqi a thawlhnaak ce kaimih koeh nik kawqut nak khqi; nam qeennaak ing kaimih hqum aham ang tawnna law hlah seh, voet a hlauh na awm hqoeng hawh unyng.
9 Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of Your name; deliver us and atone for our sins, for the sake of Your name.
Aw Khawsa kaimih a hulkung, kaimih ve ni hul khqi lah, nang ming thangleeknaak aham; namah ang ming ak caming kaimih ve ni hul khqi nawhtaw ni thaawng khqi lah.
10 Why should the nations ask, “Where is their God?” Before our eyes, make known among the nations Your vengeance for the bloodshed of Your servants.
Ikawtih pilnam thlangkhqi ing, “Hana a Khawsa a awm?” ami ti hly paqap? Kaimih amik huh awh pilnam thlangkhqi a sim na kqawn unawh, na tyihzawih thlangkhqi a thi phu nang ing lo hy tice sim lah u seh.
11 May the groans of the captives reach You; by the strength of Your arm preserve those condemned to death.
Thawng ak tlakhqi ak khynaak awi ing na haai pha law seitaw; na bantha ing thih aham ami thawlh sak ce dem sak lah.
12 Pay back into the laps of our neighbors sevenfold the reproach they hurled at You, O Lord.
Ka kengsam awhkaw thlangkhqi namah a nik thekhanaakkhqi ce a phai awh pyh ak khqih dy awh Bawipa nang ing thung lah.
13 Then we Your people, the sheep of Your pasture, will thank You forever; from generation to generation we will declare Your praise.
Cawhtaw nang ak thlangkhqi, na qamno a sainaak awhkaw tuukhqi ing nang ce kumqui dyna nim kyihcah hawh kawm uh; cadil dyna nang kyihcahnaak ce kqawn kawng unyng.
