< Psalms 70 >
1 To the chief music-maker. Of David. To keep in memory. Let your salvation come quickly, O God; come quickly to my help, O Lord.
Kathutkung: Devit Oe Cathut, kai rungngang hanlah karanglah kâroe haw. Kai kabawp hanlah karanglah kâroe haw.
2 Let those who go after my soul have shame and trouble; let those who have evil designs against me be turned back and made foolish.
Kai thei hanlah kakâcainaw teh kayayeirai po laihoi awm awh naseh, runae poe hanlah kakâcainaw heh yawng awh naseh.
3 Let those who say Aha, aha! be turned back as a reward of their shame.
Vehveh, na katetsinnaw teh kaya laihoi yawng awh naseh.
4 Let all those who are looking for you be glad and have joy in you; let the lovers of your salvation ever say, May God be great.
Nang na ka tawng pueng teh, nang dawk lunghawi thahmeica lah awm awh naseh. Na rungngangnae ka lungpataw naw ni pout laipalah, Cathut teh pholen lah awm seh, telah tet awh naseh.
5 But I am poor and in need; come to me quickly, O God; you are my help and my saviour; let there be no waiting, O Lord.
Hatei, kai teh tami ka mathoe hoi ka voutthoup e lah ka o. Oe, Cathut, karang na pâtam leih. Nang teh ka rungngangkung hoi kabawmkung doeh. Oe BAWIPA ngailawi awm hanh leih.
