Psalms 141
1 A Psalm of David. O Lord, I have cried to thee; hear me: attend to the voice of my supplication, when I cry to thee.
Kathutkung: Devit Oe BAWIPA, nang teh, kai ni na kaw. Karanglah kai koe tho haw. Kai ni nang na kaw nah kaie ka lawk hah na thai pouh haw.
2 Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; the lifting up of my hands [as] an evening sacrifice.
Kaie ratoumnae teh na hmalah hmuitui hmaisawi e patetlah thoseh, ka kut ka dâw e teh kanî a khup nah thueng e patetlah thoseh, pouk e lah awm lawiseh.
3 Set a watch, O Lord, on my mouth, and a strong door about by lips.
Oe BAWIPA, ka pahni karingkung na tat pouh haw. Ka pahni takhang hai ring haw.
4 Incline not my heart to evil things, to employ pretexts for sins, with me who work iniquity: and I will not. let me not unite with their choice ones.
Payonnae ka sak e taminaw hoi hawihoehnae sak nahanelah, ka lungthin heh hawihoehnae koe lah na kangvawi sak hanh. Ahnimae canei kawi hai na catnet sak hanh.
5 The righteous shall chasten me with mercy, and reprove me: but let not the oil of the sinner anoint my head: for yet shall my prayer also be in their pleasures.
Tami kalan ni kai na hem naseh. Hot hateh pahrenlungmanae lah ao. Kai hah na yue naseh. Hot hateh, lû dawk satui awi e lah ao. Ka lû ni hot hateh mat hanh naseh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kaie ratoumnae niteh, hawihoehnae ka sak e naw hah pou a taran han.
6 Their mighty ones have been swallowed up near the rock: they shall hear my words, for they are sweet.
Ahnimouh ka ukkungnaw teh pango dawk tanawt lah ao awh han. Hat toteh, kaie lawknaw teh ngai ao tie hah na panue awh han.
7 As a lump of earth is crushed upon the ground, our bones have been scattered by the [mouth of] the grave. (Sheol h7585)
Talai tai e laitueng pâpâwn e patetlah, kaie ka hrunaw teh phuen longkha koe a kâyat. (Sheol h7585)
8 For mine eyes are to thee, O Lord God: I have hoped in thee; take not away my life.
Hatei, Oe Bawipa Jehovah, kai teh, nang doeh na khet toe. Nang doeh na kângue toe. Ka hringnae hah kângue han kaawm hoeh lah awm sak hanh.
9 Keep me from the snare which they have set for me, and from the stumbling blocks of them that work iniquity.
Ahnimouh ni kai hanelah sut patûng e tangkam dawk hoi thoseh, payonnae kasaknaw e karap dawk hoi thoseh, kai hah na khoum haw.
10 Sinners shall fall by their own net: I am alone until I shall escape.
Kai ni hote tangkamnaw ka tapoung toteh, tamikathoutnaw teh amamouh ni a patûng awh e tangkam dawk reirei bawt awh naseh.
