Psalms 54

1 For the end, among Hymns of instruction by David, when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, Lo, is not David hid with us? Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me by thy might.

Rhotoeng neh aka mawt ham, “Ziphim loh Saul taengla cet tih kaimih taengah David a thuh moenih, a ti nah vaengkah, David hlohlai Aw Pathen na ming neh kai n'khang lamtah, na thayung thamal neh kai n'tang sak.

2 O God, hear my prayer; hearken to the words of my mouth.

Aw Pathen, ka thangthuinah he ya lamtah, ka ka lamkah ol he hnatun lah.

3 For strangers have risen up against me, and mighty men have sought my life: they have not set God before them. (Pause)

Hlanglak rhoek kai taengah tlai uh tih, hlanghaeng neh a hmai kah Pathen te, a nawt na uh kolla ka hinglu a mae uh. (Selah)

4 For lo! God assists me; and the Lord is the helper of my soul.

Kai he Pathen loh m'bom tih, ka hinglu aka talong rhoek taengah ka Boeipa om ke.

5 He shall return evil to mine enemies; utterly destroy them in thy truth.

Ka lungawn rhoek soah a thae neh thuung rhoe thuung lamtah, na oltak neh amih te biit lah.

6 I will willingly sacrifice to thee: I will give thanks to thy name, O Lord; for [it is] good.

Na taengah kothoh te, kan nawn saeh lamtah na then dongah BOEIPA nang ming te ka uem eh.

7 For thou hast delivered me out of all affliction, and mine eye has seen [my desire] upon mine enemies.

Citcai cungkuem lamkah kai n'huul tih, ka thunkha rhoek te ka mik loh a sawt.
