Psalms 2

1 Why are the nations so violently moved, and why are the thoughts of the people so foolish?

Kathutkung: Devit Miphunnaw teh bangkongmaw ruengruengti awh. Tamimaya teh bangkongmaw ayawmyin hno a sak awh.

2 The kings of the earth have taken their place, and the rulers are fixed in their purpose, against the Lord, and against the king of his selection, saying,

BAWIPA hoi Messiah taran lahoi, talai bawinaw cungtalah a kamkhueng awh teh, lawkcengkungnaw cungtalah kho a khang awh.

3 Let their chains be broken, and their cords taken from off us.

Tho awh. A kâkateknae naw hah ratham pouh sei. Kâkateknae rui hah tâkhawng pouh sei.

4 Then he whose seat is in the heavens will be laughing: the Lord will make sport of them.

Kalvan ka tahung e ni panuikhai vaiteh, Bawipa ni panuilai lah a sak han.

5 Then will his angry words come to their ears, and by his wrath they will be troubled:

Hahoi, lungkhuek laihoi ahnimouh koe lawk dei vaiteh, puenghoi a lungrei a thaisak han.

6 But I have put my king on my holy hill of Zion.

Hateiteh, kaie mon kathoung Zion vah, ka siangpahrang ka ta toe.

7 I will make clear the Lord's decision: he has said to me, You are my son, this day have I given you being.

BAWIPA ni nang teh ka Capa doeh. Sahnin vah na khe telah kai koe a dei e hah ka pâpho han.

8 Make your request to me, and I will give you the nations for your heritage, and the farthest limits of the earth will be under your hand.

Kai koe het haw. Râw lah miphunnaw na poe vaiteh, talai pout ditouh na coe hanelah na poe han.

9 They will be ruled by you with a rod of iron; they will be broken like a potter's vessel.

Sumtaboung hoi na uk vaiteh, talai hlaamkabokung ni a hem e patetlah rek na hem han.

10 So now be wise, you kings: take his teaching, you judges of the earth.

Hatdawkvah, Oe siangpahrangnaw, na lungang awh leih. Talai lawkcengkungnaw yuenae kâhmo awh haw.

11 Give worship to the Lord with fear, kissing his feet and giving him honour,

Taki laihoi BAWIPA thaw tawk awh haw. Pâyaw laihoi konawm awh.

12 For fear that he may be angry, causing destruction to come on you, because he is quickly moved to wrath. Happy are all those who put their faith in him.

Capa teh pahnuem awh. Hoehpawiteh, a lungkhuek payon vaih. Dongdeng a lungphuen toteh, lam vah koung na kahmat payon vaih. Ama kâuep e pueng teh tami yawkahawi e doeh.
