Psalms 10

1 Why do you keep far away, O Lord? why are you not to be seen in times of trouble?

O Yahweh Pakai, idia gam lhatah'a ding nahim? Genthei kathoh jiteng ibol'a kisel jia nahim?

2 The evil-doer in his pride is cruel to the poor; let him be taken by the tricks of his invention.

Migilouten noise tah'in migentheite adel mangjiu vin, mi-o nadinga asem'u thang a chun amahojoh hin-o sah'in.

3 For the evil-doer is lifted up because of the purpose of his heart, and he whose mind is fixed on wealth is turned away from the Lord, saying evil against him.

Ajeh chu amhon thilselam a alung ngaichat hou akiletsah piuvin, mikilose ho apah chauvin, Yahweh Pakai chu ataitom-un ahi.

4 The evil-doer in his pride says, God will not make a search. All his thoughts are, There is no God.

Migilou te vang Elohim Pathen holdin akiletsah val un, alungthim pumpiu vin jong Elohim Pathen aum poi atiuve.

5 His ways are ever fixed; your decisions are higher than he may see: as for his haters, they are as nothing to him.

Ahinlah amaho hi abol-lam lam uvah alolhing'un ahi. Achung uva hunglhung ding eng-bolna ho jonghi amupha jipouve. Amahon agal-mihou jouse chu ataitom-un ahi.

6 He has said in his heart, I will not be moved: through all generations I will never be in trouble.

Amahon, kachung'uva thilse kiti chulouding ahi tin atahsan un; boina hoa kona aitih a ongthol ding kahitaove atiuve.

7 His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and false words: under his tongue are evil purposes and dark thoughts.

Akam-uvah sapsetna, joule nal, chule gihsalna adimset ui. Alei muh uva jong thilse le thilphalou jeng aum e.

8 He is waiting in the dark places of the towns: in the secret places he puts to death those who have done no wrong: his eyes are secretly turned against the poor.

Amahon khopam lam gamthip lah hoa mi achang lhi jiuvin, them-mona neilouho thading agojiuve. Amit un alhasam te umna aching lhi jingun ahi.

9 He keeps himself in a secret place like a lion in his hole, waiting to put his hands on the poor man, and pulling him into his net.

Keipi bahkaiho bang'in akisel'un lhasam le hatloute mat jeng dingin angahun ahi. Sachangho bang'in tah-lelte chu len akhu khum un amandoh jitaove.

10 The upright are crushed and made low, and the feeble are overcome by his strong ones.

Lhasam a bolsetna toh te chu asugep jiuvin; miphalouho thahatna noi a chun alhalut jitaove.

11 He says in his heart, God has no memory of me: his face is turned away; he will never see it.

Migilou ten Elohim Pathen in eimupha pouve atiuve! Aman amit sing intin, ‘eihon ibol uhi mu hih beh inte’ atiuve!

12 Up! O Lord; let your hand be lifted: give thought to the poor.

Hung kipat tan O Yahweh Pakai, migiloute hi gotna petan, O Elohim Pathen! Hatlou lhasam te hin sumil hih beh in.

13 Why has the evil-doer a low opinion of God, saying in his heart, You will not make search for it?

Migiloute Elohim Pathen sam se pum puma iti ongthol diu ham? Amahon Elohim Pathen in eithemmosah pouvinte tin angai touve.

14 You have seen it; for your eyes are on sorrow and grief, to take it into your hand: the poor man puts his faith in you; you have been the helper of the child who has no father.

Ahinlah Yahweh Pakai nangin athilse bol-houhi namusoh keije. Nangin hicheho hi melchih inlang amahohi gotna pen. Hatlou lhasam ten atahsan nao nanga akoi un, nulou palou te jong nangin vengbit in.

15 Let the arm of the sinner and the evil-doer be broken; go on searching for his sin till there is no more.

Hiche migilou mi-engseho hi abanjang-u heh bongin! abon-uva nasuhmang kahsen anung u deljingin.

16 The Lord is King for ever and ever; the nations are gone from his land.

Yahweh Pakaihi atonsot tonsot leng ahi! Elohim Pathen neilou nam mitechu gamsung akon a mangthah ding ahiuve.

17 Lord, you have given ear to the prayer of the poor: you will make strong their hearts, you will give them a hearing:

Yahweh Pakai nangin tah-lelte kinepna hi nahetsa ahi, nangin thon louva akana-u najahpeh'a nahin lhamon ding ahi.

18 To give decision for the child without a father and for the broken-hearted, so that the man of the earth may no longer be feared.

Nangin nulou palou te leh bolgentheija umho chungthu adih'a natanpeh ding, chuteng athi thei mihem in amaho hi asuh lengvai theilou diu ahitai.
