Psalms 86

1 A prayer of David. Incline Your ear, O LORD, and answer me, for I am poor and needy.

Aw Bawipa, ngai law nawhtaw, hlat law lah, khawdeng na awm nyng thlang voet na awm nyng.

2 Preserve my soul, for I am godly. You are my God; save Your servant who trusts in You.

Nang ni ka ni ypnaak, ka hqingnaak ve khoem law lah. Nang taw ka Khawsa na awm hyk ti; nang anik ypnaak na tyihzawih ve hul cang lah.

3 Be merciful to me, O Lord, for I call to You all day long.

Aw Bawipa, nim qeen cang lah, khawnghi zung nang nik khy nyng.

4 Bring joy to Your servant, for to You, O Lord, I lift up my soul.

Na tyihzawih ve zeel sak cang lah. Aw Bawipa, na venawh ka hqingnaak hak soeng law nyng.

5 For You, O Lord, are kind and forgiving, rich in loving devotion to all who call on You.

Aw Bawipa, nang taw qeenkhaw ngai thai nawh leek hyk ti, nang anik khykhqi boeih a venawh na lungnaak khawzah na dang sak hyk ti.

6 Hear my prayer, O LORD, and attend to my plea for mercy.

Aw Bawipa, kak cykcahnaak ve ngai law lah; qeennaak thoeh doena kang kqangnaak awi ve ngai law lah.

7 In the day of my distress I call on You, because You answer me.

Kyinaak ka huh nyn awh ce nik khy kawng nyng saw, nang ing nim hlah law kawp ti.

8 O Lord, there is none like You among the gods, nor any works like Yours.

Aw Bawipa, khawsakhqi anglak li awh nang amyihna ak awm pynoet awm am awm hy; nang a ik-oeih sai ing kqawn nyt hly kawi pynoet awm am awm hy.

9 All the nations You have made will come and bow before You, O Lord, and they will glorify Your name.

Nang ing na sai pilnam thlangkhqi ce law kawm usaw na haiawh ni bawk kawm uh, Aw Bawipa; nang ming ce thangleek sak kawm uh.

10 For You are great and perform wonders; You alone are God.

Ikawtih, nang taw bau soeih tiksaw kawpoek kyi ik-oeihkhqi ce sai hyk ti; nang doeng ni Khawsa na nak awm.

11 Teach me Your way, O LORD, that I may walk in Your truth. Give me an undivided heart, that I may fear Your name.

Aw Bawipa, na lam ce ni cawng sak lah, nak awitak awh cet vang nyng; nang ming kak kqihnaak thai aham a plawk a plak na ak awm kawlung koeh ni pe.

12 I will praise You, O Lord my God, with all my heart; I will glorify Your name forever.

Aw Bawipa ka Khawsa, kak kawlung boeih ing nang ce nim kyihcah vang; nang ming ce kumqui dyna ni zoeksang kawng.

13 For great is Your loving devotion to me; You have delivered me from the depths of Sheol. (Sheol h7585)

Ikawtih, ka venawh na lungnaak ve bau soeih hy; nang ing hlan a dungnaak awhkawng ni hul hawh hyk ti. (Sheol h7585)

14 The arrogant rise against me, O God; a band of ruthless men seeks my life, with no regard for You.

Aw Khawsa, ak oek qukhqi ing kai ni tuk uhy; qeennaak amak ta thlangkhqi, nang kawna ama nik hu thlangkhqi ing kai him aham ni sui uhy.

15 But You, O Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in loving devotion and faithfulness.

Cehlai, Aw Bawipa, nang taw qeennaak ing ak be Khawsa na awm hyk ti, ak hengna kaw ak so, lungnaak ypawmnaak ing ak be na awm hyk ti.

16 Turn to me and have mercy; grant Your strength to Your servant; save the son of Your maidservant.

Kai ben na mang law nawh nim qeen cang lah; na tyihzawih nu a capa ve hul cang lah.

17 Show me a sign of Your goodness, that my enemies may see and be ashamed; for You, O LORD, have helped me and comforted me.

Ka qaalkhqi ing hu unawh amik chahnaak aham na leeknaak man ce ni pe lah, Aw Bawipa, nang ing nik pyi nawh kang ngaih qep law sak hawh hyk ti.
