Psalms 58
1 For the end. Destroy not: by David, for a memorial. If ye do indeed speak righteousness, [then] do ye judge rightly, ye sons of men.
Kathutkung: Devit Nangmouh duem na kaawm e naw, lannae lawk hah na dei awh katang maw. Oe tami capanaw kalanlah lawk na ceng awh maw.
2 For ye work iniquities in [your] hearts in the earth: your hands plot unrighteousness.
Na ceng awh hoeh, na lungthung vah, hawihoehnae na sak awh. Talaivan na kut hoi thamanae yawcu hoi na khing awh.
3 Sinners have gone astray from the womb: they go astray from the belly: they speak lies.
Tamikathoutnaw teh, von thung hoi lam a payon awh toe. A tâco awh tahma vah, laithoe dei laihoi lam a payon awh.
4 Their venom is like [that] of a serpent; as [that] of a deaf asp, and that stops her ears;
Asue teh hrunthoesue patetlah ao. A hnâ ka pang e tahrun a hnâ pahru e patetlah ao.
5 which will not hear the voice of charmers, nor [heed] the charm prepared skillfully by the wise.
Hote tahrun ni teh tahrun camnae lawk hai thai thai hoeh. Camnae la sak e hai thai thai hoeh.
6 God has crushed their teeth in their mouth: God has broken the cheek-teeth of the lions.
Oe Cathut, a kâko e hâ hah khoe pouh haw. Oe BAWIPA, athakaawme sendek nônaw hah khoe pouh haw.
7 They shall utterly pass away like water running through: he shall bend his bow till they shall fail.
Ka lawng lahun e tui patetlah kahmat awh naseh. Licung a sawn awh toteh, ahnimae palanaw teh koung kâkhoe naseh.
8 They shall be destroyed as melted wax: the fire has fallen and they have not seen the sun.
A cei lahun nah kahmat e kongkaraw patetlah kahmat awh naseh. Camo karawk e ni kanî a hmu hoeh e patetlah awm awh naseh.
9 Before your thorns feel the white thorn, he shall swallow you up as living, as in his wrath.
Pâkhing pho hoi patawi e hmai, hlaam a bet hoehnahlan vah, kahring e pâkhing pho hoi hmai ka kang e pâkhing phonaw teh, bongparui ni cetkhai naseh.
10 The righteous shall rejoice when he sees the vengeance of the ungodly: he shall wash his hands in the blood of the sinner.
Tamikalannaw ni hot patetlah e reknae hah a hmu awh toteh, a konawm awh han.
11 And a man shall say, Verily then there is a reward for the righteous: verily there is a God that judges them in the earth.
Tamikathoutnaw e thi dawk a khok a pâsu awh han. Hottelah tami ni, ayânaw hanelah tawkphu ao tie hoi lawkcengkung Cathut ao katang ati awh han.
