< Psalms 33 >
1 [A Psalm] of David. Rejoice in the Lord, ye righteous; praise becomes the upright.
Nangcae katoeng kaminawk, Angraeng ah anghoe oh: katoeng kaminawk loe saphawhaih laasak han krak.
2 Praise the Lord on the harp; platy to him on a psaltery of ten strings.
Toenghaih hoiah Angraeng to pakoeh oh: aqui hato kaom katoeng tamoi kruek hoiah anih to pakoeh oh.
3 Sing to him a new song; play skillfully with a loud noise.
Anih khaeah laa kangtha to sah oh; mongkah uenghaih hoiah kanawm ah anih to pakoeh oh.
4 For the word of the Lord is right; and all his works are faithful.
Angraeng ih lok loe toeng; anih ih toknawk boih loe toenghaih hoiah ni sak.
5 He loves mercy and judgment; the earth is full the mercy of the Lord.
Anih loe toenghaih hoiah khokhan moe, kamsoem ah lokcaekhaih to a koeh, long loe Angraeng hoihaih hoiah koi.
6 By the word of the Lord the heavens were established; and all the host of them by the breath of his [mouth].
Vannawk loe Angraeng ih lok hoiah sak moe, van ah kaom hmuennawk boih doeh a pakha thung ih takhi hoiah ni a sak.
7 Who gathers the waters of the sea as [in] a bottle; who lays up the deeps in treasuries.
Anih mah tuipui ih tuinawk to nawnto acuu moe, kathuk tuipui doeh pakhuenghaih ahmuen ah a suek.
8 Let all the earth fear the Lord; and let all that dwell in the world be moved because of him.
Long boih mah Angraeng to zii o nasoe: long kaminawk boih mah anih to khingza o nasoe.
9 For he spoke, and they were made; he commanded, and they were created.
Tipongah tih nahaeloe anih loe thuih baktiah angcoengsak; a paek ih lok baktiah ohsak.
10 The Lord frustrates the counsels of the nations; he brings to nought also the reasonings of the peoples, and brings to nought the counsels of princes.
Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk lokramhaih to anih mah paro pae: kaminawk atimhaih doeh a phraek pae.
11 But the counsel of the Lord endures for ever, the thoughts of his heart from generation to generation.
Angraeng khokhanhaih loe dungzan khoek to cak, a poekhaih loe angzo han koi caanawk khoek to om poe tih.
12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; the people whom he has chosen for his own inheritance.
Angmah ih qawktoep hanah a qoih ih kaminawk hoi Sithaw loe Angraeng ni, tiah tapom acaengnawk loe tahamhoih o.
13 The Lord looks out of heaven; he beholds all the sons of men.
Angraeng mah van hoi khet tathuk naah, kaminawk to hnuk boih.
14 He looks from his prepared habitation on all the dwellers on the earth;
A ohhaih ahmuen hoiah khet naah, long ah kaom hmuennawk to panoek boih.
15 who fashioned their hearts alone; who understands all their works.
Angraeng mah kami boih hanah poekhaih palungthin to paek; nihcae mah sak ih hmuennawk Angraeng mah panoek boih.
16 A king is not saved by reason of a great host; and a giant shall not be delivered by the greatness of his strength.
Kawbaktih siangpahrang doeh kanoih parai misatuh kaminawk mah pahlong ai: thacak kami doeh thacakhaih mah loisak ai.
17 A horse is vain for safety; neither shall he be delivered by the greatness of his power.
Hrang mah ngancuemhaih paek thai ai: a thacakhaih mah mi doeh pahlong thai ai.
18 Behold, the eyes of the Lord are on them that fear him, those that hope in his mercy;
Khenah, Angraeng ih mik loe angmah zithaih tawn kami, a palungnathaih oep kaminawk nuiah oh;
19 to deliver their souls from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
duekhaih thung hoiah nihcae ih pakhra to anih mah pahlong moe, khokhaa naah nihcae hingsak hanah a khetzawn.
20 Our soul waits on the Lord; for he is our helper and defender.
Aicae hinghaih mah Angraeng to zing: anih loe aicae bomkung hoi angvaenhaih aphaw ah oh.
21 For our heart shall rejoice in him, and we have hoped in his holy name.
Kaciim anih ih ahmin to a oep o pongah, aicae ih palungthin loe anih ah anghoehaih a tawnh o.
22 Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us, according as we have hoped in thee.
Aw Angraeng, nang kang oep o baktih toengah, na palungnathaih kaicae nuiah om nasoe.
